AI is now the biggest investment in all of US history as a percentage of GDP. Datacenter construction is up, all other construction is down. "AI Is Squeezing Out the Rest of the Stock Market," reported WSJ 2 days ago. We basically bet the whole economy on the most optimistic visions panning out.

If you just substitute the words 'working age' for 'fighting age', suddenly the arrival of youngish men and women doesn't sound threatening. Rather, it sounds like exactly what we need for an ageing population.

A drone is hovering above the white supremacist camp's trucks. Not sure whose it is. The size of Lang's group has remained about the same since we got on-scene. The crowd coming out to oppose them has grown significantly. Easily high hundreds of people at this point.

I've been thinking a lot about how Lindsey's death frees up Trump to betray Ukraine more than he otherwise would have. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...
A tweet from me, @ing Darline Graham, saying, do you think Lindsey would have let Trump sell out the Ukrainians for an oil deal like this? Will you speak up or condemn it, or will you remain silent in search of power for yourself?

I've linked the NYT story on the Lukoil deal that would be part of a "peace" deal.

AI guys have a God complex so out of control they think the Pope himself will validate their beliefs.
Christopher Hale @ChristopherHale
NEW: According to a bombshell report in the New York Times, Anthropic CO- founder Chris Olah threatened to walk out of Pope Leo XIV's Al encyclical launch in May because the pope
rejected the idea that machines can be conscious.
Olah's team then privately lobbied the pope's advisers "to take the possibility of model consciousness seriously." Pope Leo XIV held firm.
For months, Anthropic has wined and dined theologians and religious scholars under nondisclosure agreements, hoping they would bless the idea that Claude has moral standing.

Trump’s insider trading is, on its own, the worst corruption scandal in US history, with $$$ dwarfing Teapot Dome. So are Trump’s bribes-for-pardons. So is the Qatar bribe plane. So is all the Saudi money he (and Kushner) have pocketed. And the ballroom. And more. Each alone would be the worst.
