How is this any different than what they claim about Biden's Autopen? newrepublic.com/post/215572/...

Unsettling to live through an era where Truly Bad, as in real Nazi stuff, is treated as not actually bad, mostly a curiosity, just another policy, look what you made them do, while what gets the up-in-arms treatment is minor scandal, titillation, someone said something about what someone else said.

Among the worst ideas floating around is that "the free market" will naturally achieve desirable results for society. No, it won't, not even in theory, much less in practice. Markets don't optimize "good for society" unless you make them.
Turns out that food companies were only checking their food because the government told them to, which is exactly why we need government regulations.

All the props in the world to this guy, but THIS IS NOT A FEEL-GOOD STORY IT IS A DAMNING INDICTMENT OF OUR SOCIETY AND HOW WE TREAT OUR MOST VULNERABLE
At just 22, Connor Gibson is doing something he never dreamed possible: using his engineering skills to 3D print dentures for America's most vulnerable people — and giving them back their sense of dignity in the process. https://cnn.it/44omGk4

No matter what you or I might think about the editing at the NYT these days, or how much Trump pretends he doesn't care, he *does* care a lot about what the Times says. So I'm really glad they are saying this. 🎁 www.nytimes.com/2026/06/15/o...

Mainstream media is 24/7 saturation of poor people committing petty crimes. Shoplifting out of control! Venezuelan thugs are stealing your apartment! Meanwhile billionaires are genocidal serial killers and treated like the pillars of our society
Listened to an NPR story this morning about mass child starvation in Senegal without a single mention of Elon Musk, the guy who gleefully created the conditions for the mass starvation

Insane self-blinding of the US. They are throwing away their investment in the ocean observation system and the benefits it provides. The only explanation I can think of: they don’t want the people to know what their fossil emissions are doing to our oceans. easternherald.com/2026/06/13/u...

This AI-generated image is making the rounds and normally I wouldn't even bother with something like this However, it gives us the chance to talk about a fascinating sub-group of White Nationalism that believes a race of pure Aryans called Argathans live in the center of the Earth 🧵

this is such a good example of someone asserting that incivility lives in actions that hurt people, not in questioning those actions
Oliver Darcy got the audio of the heated 60 Minutes meeting where Scott Pelley dressed Nick Bilton down! "You know what was rude? Black Thursday. That was the absolute definition of rudeness. Telling Tanya Simon she had to be out of here at five o'clock." www.status.news/p/scott-pell...

This answer alone should destroy this administration. This conversation is essentially: “people are hurting.” “ceos are fine.”
BREAM: The Journal says percentage of delinquent credit card balances is 13%, the highest in 15 years. People are using them for necessities. Your message to them? HASSETT: We talk to CEOs of the credit card companies all the time, and there's not any threat to them. People are taking a bit longer.

How is it possible a "tech reporter" can't recognize the Swift language logo in Apple's WWCD announcement. "This year's invite has an intriguing dove-like logo ... we expect [it has] something to do with the new Gemini-powered version of Siri." 🤦🏼♂️ mashable.com/article/appl...
