Especially when it leaves capitalists claiming ambition as their exclusive property. They get to promise transformation, the left gets cast as the person explaining why you shouldn’t want things. What a fucking surrender.

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

And the toxic Silicon Valley culture that currently exists (which is a thing I wrote about in my academic work) is a direct reaction in part to the hardcore mysticist anti-empiricism of academia - the way we got them to believe in the Cathedral was by building it

I think Andor really is one of the most important TV shows of our time. Technically brilliant, so galvanising, each time I find something new in it (just watched it a fourth (!) time). Absolute masterpiece.

The fact that many of the executions and death sentences in Iran don't make headlines isn't because they have stopped. So far in 2026, the Islamic Republic has executed at least 1001 Iranians, including 41 in September. Currently, more than 100 people are facing the death sentence.

For all their faults, states at least have the potential for democratic accountability and control. Corporations and wealthy individuals do not, and the state should crush their power before it is too late.

This is why the AKP cling to power, by the way. Westerners are quick to assume that they steal elections and suppress dissent, but they don't know that until very recently, AKP municipalities were incredibly responsive and quick to act. Foreigners (and sheltered Turks) have this impression...

Maybe art is a response to the times we are living through. Maybe the most-celebrated art is something that is both crafted with excellence and resonates with the moment. (To quote Brecht: "In dark times Will there also be singing? Yes, there will be singing. About the dark times.")

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned

Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.
