As every year, we're looking forward to Montreal's Constellation Anarchist Bookfair on May 16! constellationmtl.net The author of After the Fall (hot off the presses!) will be giving an update on the situation for Syria's Kurds at the event, as a kind of book launch. leftwingbooks.net/afterthefall

See? Election fraud is real. It’s just overwhelmingly done by the Guardians of Pedophiles. Much like crimes agsint children. It’s always on their mind bc it’s always on their mind.

Mark Carney announced a Canadian Sovereign Wealth Fund, and it will probably suck.
Canadian PM Mark Carney just announced the creation of the “Canada Strong” sovereign wealth fund (SWF).

I had a good writing day yesterday -- over 3000 words. ...but it was all on a letter to the advisory committee on the re-appointment of McGill's president, so it didn't really help me get closer to finishing this book!

In my opinion, AI (for researchers) is really good for formatting busy work, extracting information, and maybe copy-editing. And even with this, it's gotten worse over time.

Funny how he says that if you use AI for research it will tell you that the land wasn't really stolen from Native people. Um, exactly, yeah, because it gives you wrong information.

EUROPEANS/UK: Are there any schools/institutions that study public banking/finance that you suggest to keep an eye out for? Looking for places to potentially do an exchange in the future.

And if more AI -> fewer jobs then a problem of demand lagging supply -> Deflation and debt distress, slower growth. Technofetishism almost always ignores the issue of the distribution of income across classes and among firms.

The push towards private-markets/credit is really a fullfrontal attack. It's just never ending, they really want a full expansion.

I've been off twitter for mental health/distraction reasons, but I might as well post when I publish new pieces here. This week I wrote some thoughts on the Canada vs China "trade war" and the paper tiger that is the Canadian EV industry. criticofpolecon.substack.com/p/competitio...

Good morning. It is now 12:01 AM, which means a 25% tariff on all $114B in non-USCMA-compliant auto part imports has now gone into effect, alongside a hideously complex system allowing carmakers to rebate tariffs on 15% of the content in a US-made car this year & 10% next year

in a country so trapped in the politics of grievance, amazing that there are no public riots for the manyfold ways in which private equity is canibalising housing, with generous support from the American state. truthout.org/articles/gov...

Remember how much trolling our degrowth fellows had to endure for suggesting maybe it's time to shrink consumption. Amazing that a Republican president would say this out loud.

Adding a bit more heterogeneity to the asymmetry, hierarchy, heterogeneity characterizing structural power in the US global empire (here in relation to credit creation). Asymmetry: if your banks lend in USD (90% of USD lending is non-US banks) you might need emergency dollar funding. 1/4

URGENT MUTUAL AID: So far we've raised about 670/5000 USD. Unfortunately the Canadian dollar is tanking so these donations end up being worth much less, so if you're in the U.S/EU PLEASE share this and try and donate, it will help a lot!!!
