Imagine if Biden or Obama had made 327 stock purchases in a single day and then, the next day, announced a policy change guaranteed to boost those stocks, while announcing “GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!”
Any previous president would have been quickly impeached and convicted, by both parties.

Technically, the extinction of the dinosaurs is the highest ratio of birds killed with one stone.
Putin planned to supply his troops in occupied Donetsk via the Mariupol-Donetsk highway.
Ukraine changed the plan.
MAGA fascist Ken Paxton has called for a nationwide ban on IVF.
75% of fertilized eggs naturally miscarry. If GOP honestly believed a fertilized egg is a human, their abortion bans would mandate insurance companies pay life insurance for a miscarriage.
But that'll never happen, because GOP knows a fertilized egg is NOT a baby. And because GOP was never about protecting babies—they were always about controlling women.
"It is, of course, an extraordinarily effective estrogenic agent, but that is the least of the problem. It is hypergolic with every known patient*, and so rapidly hypergolic that no induction period has ever been measured. It is also hypergolic with such things as syringes, examination tables, cotton wool, and nursing staff..."
If bots are running the #stockmarket with no grip on reality, well, it's no wonder the #AI bubble is so huge.
It's amazing AI companies can legally bill by usage.
"How much will this cost?"
"No idea."
"What will I get?"
"No idea."
"Can you estimate either?"
"Absolutely not!"
We're one jackpot animation away from calling it a slot machine.
If I said in the UK what this guy says in Trump’s Amerika I’d be arrested by our Metropolitan “Gestapo” [aka Police] for uttering antisemitic hate speech!

“Pro-Israel US politician, Norm Coleman, the vice-president of Donald Trump‘s new ‘Defense Policy Board’, told an annual Zionist conference that Jews are the ‘masters of the universe’.
Not just that, but Jewish people control the media — and must use that control to ‘make sure’ that the US population supports Israel — Coleman said at the JNS policy summit”

There are only two types of people who talk seriously about data centers in space:
People who don’t know what they are talking about.
People who think you are stupid.

Sweet holy mother of surprise! I nearly raised an eyebrow...
The CRASH Clock paper is now peer-reviewed! So to celebrate, my co-authors and I wrote an explainer article (because how better to celebrate one article than by writing another... oh academia...)
It's now published in The Conversation Canada: https://theconversation.com/a-new-crash-clock-measures-the-chance-of-satellite-collisions-and-its-ticking-down-fast-283481
All "privacy oriented" commercial VPNs are honeypots.
You can't change my mind on that.
Mullvad VPN has heavy marketing in Washington DC (their ads are plastered all across the metro stops frequented by government workers and foreign diplomats) for example.
The whole "you need to hide something? here we'll hide it for you! Everyone that wants to hide something should put is all in this one consolidated place!"
But they totally won't look at it.
They swear.
No logs, bro. I promise. I can look, but I won't. I could log, but I won't.
So while Mullvad the company is showing their ass, asking what other VPN to hop to begs the question: Why are you using a commercial VPN?
If it's to change your IP address to bypass porn restrictions in fundamentalist theocratic states, then cool. That's a solid use case.
If it's for a nebulous reason like "for privacy" or "for security". Then you might want to see if that tool actually meets your specific threat modeling.
Tomorrow, Ireland takes over as EU Council Presidency for six months, when the EU is renegotiating tech and tax rules. In The Guardian this morning I argue it must recuse itself from these discussions because it is so captured by big tech. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jun/30/ireland-big-tech-lapdog-eu-presidency-digital-sovereignty
The Government™ has made an ad about Palantir, and it's surprsingly honest and informative. https://youtu.be/mBW9QCVDSjY

#WSocial posted a message on their official account talking about "temporary profile issues" for "some W users."
Reality (exposed in my latest article): their network was BRICKED for ALL NEW USERS who joined starting on June 22 (some 3100+ accounts out of 5000) for 7+ days.
An amateur reporter and self-hosting newbie (aka me) figured out the problem and the solution, bringing attention to this matter.
I had to respond: https://mu.social/profile/elenarossini.com/post/3mpig4ggkpk2q hope others chime in 🤭
