Sometimes the Wall Street Journal is a little like, just because you're thinking it doesn't mean you should say it?

The fact that these two stories appeared back to back in my feed. Sigh.

What's wild is I have been trying to tell people for years that Peter Thiel was masterminding the destruction of this country for profit but it turns out it was Epstein all along hahahahaha I think I might have hit my limit now.
A screenshot of an email between Peter Thiel and Jeffrey Epstein in which Epstein informs Thiel that Brexit was just the beginning of they returned to tribalism, the end to globalization, something about getting interest rates below zero, and how finding ways to collapse things that are already broken is easier than "finding the next bargain."

From a Vox story today on the difficulty of forecasting extreme cold. Job gets easier if nobody believes him, I guess, weather? Anymore?

1. This is giving so much Epstein. 2. Can we move past making headlines out of the fact that dudes stand around at parties making gross comments about chicks? We know.

I don't know why these features exist let alone are enabled by default but here is the settings menu you can use to stop your iPhone from trying to inexplicably text someone the last photo you took every time you set it down on a GD flat surface. Raise your hand if you've ever used this on purpose.
A screenshot of the iPhone back tap menu in the settings app. A screenshot of the triple tap menu in the iPhone setting app, showing that I have disabled it from trying to do anything when I just put my damn phone down on the table.

A thing I was taught over and over and over in journalism school was that following the money would almost always lead to the truth. Once we started following the politics and not the money, the truth reliably stayed hidden. I do not suggest this was an accident.

When you love your rage-bait false premise so much you promote it twice. 🖕
This is a screenshot of the opinion page of the New York Times (on mobile) in the year of our Lord 2025, with two headlines highlighted, one at the very top, which reads, "did liberal feminism ruin the workplace," and one at the bottom, which simply asks, "did women ruin the workplace?" 

The reader is presumably left to assume and believe that the workplace has in fact been ruined, because otherwise how could we go looking for blame and inevitably land on women?

Fuck ALL of them who tried to pretend they cared about free speech when all they ever wanted was hate speech without consequences. They were full of shit then and they always will be. And yes, I know they will find a way to defend this because they have no center and they have no bottom.
A screenshot from a Wall Street Journal article. The headline says the US has revoked the visas of 6 people over their comments about Charlie Kirk.

Honestly, I'm pretty stoked that Nexstar and Sinclair are stepping out from behind the Disney shield. Everybody ignored it when religious fanatics started buying local news stations and forcing anchors to read political propaganda on-air. But these are the names.

Me being like I'll create a CFO/COO GPT for myself to ask about business decisions and growth. But like, in a fun way. GPT: immediately makes me hate everything about AI and society. Sigh.
A screenshot of a conversation with an image. I said I'd like to name my GPT Ruth, after Ruth Porat of Google, who I describe as "a lady who knows how to make some money." ChatGPT says great, it's named Ruth, I'll generate a profile picture for her! And the image is of a strong, confident looking male in a suit and red tie, which GPT describes as "bold, confident, and striking in pop art style." Face palm.

Yesterday I referred to menopause and its drama as "the heat death of my ovary stars," and @mranthropology.bsky.social made this and it's funny? But also so wonderful!? The divine feminine. 🥹

I mean, I just want Siri to stop replacing nouns that I use 50 times a day with random names from my contacts list, and also for group chats that happened to include Android phones to work even a tiny bit. But emojis I guess, sure. 😫

You remember when the pandemic came and it broke global supply chains and introduced general chaos and the economy crashed? And that was like a fully exogenous event? Somehow this administration seems to think it's a good idea to do it again on purpose (but w/o the stimulus that made it roar again).
A screenshot of a chart showing the time. Between December 31 and February 27 when the stock market briefly roared in anticipation of all of the Trump administrations business acumen, and then almost immediately started trending sharply downward. Huh. Weird, that.

I don't know why I'm surprised, but this whole experience has only further driven home the degree to which The Media is really just the cops.
A screenshot of a news alert from Apple news, with the title of today's news podcast: "how police found the suspect in the United Healthcare shooting." This framing is ironic for several reasons, not at least of which is that the police did not find anybody. The suspect was turned in.

I'm sure it's no coincidence that we spent the whole summer enjoying the best Olympics any of us can remember in recent history while inundated with images of a mascot representing liberty, freedom, and symbolic of MULTIPLE revolutions. Not in the air or anything. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrygia...

I'm super late to this conversation but re the growth manifesto and leaving aside like, ALL the other stuff, how was this not immediately disqualifying?
An image that reads: "Technology. Techno-Optimists believe that societies, like sharks, grow or die."
