"In the place of problem-solving technology, companies have jumped on successive bandwagons like NFTs, the metaverse, and large language models. What these all have in common is that they are not built to really solve a market problem. They are built to make VCs and companies rich."
Silicon Valley has forgotten what normal people want
Did the tech industry get high on its own supply?

Trump is one speech away from accusing the Girl Scouts of being a Marxist paramilitary organization.
Reminder: if you’re in South Carolina, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Vermont, or Alabama — vote tomorrow. 🗳️ Show up. Bring someone with you. Make your voice count. And a huge thank you to the poll workers who keep democracy moving while the rest of us cast our ballot
If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.
Ok folks, it’s time to start connecting the dots. When something as critical as food safety starts to dramatically breakdown, we have to ask ourselves what we can do to restore safety and sanity right now before more Americans die. www.foodnavigator.com/Article/2026...
Trump purge at FDA and USDA triggers food safety ‘brain drain’
Nearly 250,000 federal jobs have been cut under Trump, stripping staff from FDA, USDA and HHS and raising concerns about food safety, inspections and oversight.

I’ve decided I like it when the oligarchs write manifestos. Then you can see how shallow their thinking is. Here’s my take on Andreessen’s www.nytimes.com/2023/10/28/o...

It’s no mystery why Marc Andreessen thinks people like him should be in charge. But how did he get so many of the rest of us to sign on?

This billionaire is accidentally making the case for why we need a wealth tax better than anyone else could.
Interesting. I hadn’t realized Harp was influencing Trump so greatly. Who influences what she tells him? He isn’t in charge of anything except being free to destroy the US for billionaires so they can buy us up and rule like kings. youtu.be/gEKOEC93SSE?...

The fact that the system is broken is so obvious that it has become a cliché when politicians say it. So why aren't we taking the necessary big swings to fix it?
Our response to this moment either frees, enslaves, or ends our family lines. If we continue down this path, climate or fascism will kill most of us.

Hoosier kids deserve the same. We ate better and were healthier before billionaire controlled agriculture lies. It’s time to heal the land. Bring back the lost art of farming for communities, nutritional value, diversity, and sustainability. Deadly data centers are massive bee killers.

TX fucked its people, again, by letting Bezos pollute their state & divert limited water in DROUGHT CONDITIONS. 🚩TX is #2 in U.S. for # of #DataCenters. States are selling Americans out, to Trump & TechBros Look at #Musk’sGasTurbines. 🚩Since 2025, that RACIST has poisoned the AIR for POC in TN‼️

Mitch McConnell's Chief of Staff, Terry Carmack was spotted leaving McConnell's house and refused to give a status update on the Senators health. Carmack reportedly makes $226,850 a year and is still getting paid, even though McConnell has been missing for two months.
Funny how the paranoid conservatives yelling about the surveillance state have become shockingly quiet once one is implemented.

The American people deserve answers about the serious safety incidents at major AI companies. I'm calling on Speaker Mike Johnson to schedule hearings with the CEOs. And I'm demanding OpenAI and Anthropic come clean about what they know.

The Atlantic@theatlantic.com · yesterdayAbdul El-Sayed’s win in Michigan is a blow to center-left Democrats—“and more will come unless they quickly absorb bracing lessons from this debacle,” @jonathanbchait.bsky.social argues:
Pro-Democracy patriots need to stop letting the media control the narrative. It affects the election outcomes. That’s literally why they are doing it. There are zero DSA candidates running for President. They occupy zero institutions or states.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 8h agoDear corporate media: instead of parsing the language of one of the DSA’s platform issues about the two-tiered system of justice in an effort to divide the opposition, how about discussing the fascism on the other side?
Must repair SCOTUS. That starts with flipping the House and the Senate in November. Then electing a Democrat in 2028. Then carving out or ending the senate filibuster. Then adding four fair judges not beholden to billionaires to the court. But it starts in November. VOTE.
