.@Polymarket @Kalshi are markets up yet for when we see Platner's hog? Leaving money on the table

Artist’s rendering of guy forlornly shouting “FEEEEEMALES” on /r/incels in 2013. Masterfully done.

lmao

This is fine if you want to be left behind, but if you're truly cracked, I'm building the only AI connected to this guy's AI. Get instant answers without reading his instant answers What used to involve brain now does not

Adam Jentleson’s extremely embarrassing “heterodox” think tank has been online for over a year, pays thousands of dollars annually for that gold check mark, and has less followers than i do

Let's be clear that this is either delusional or deeply idiotic. Everyone is just going to build an AI business from their bedroom? Selling what? To who? AI is not some magic box that gives everyone money.

NJ primary is on 6/2 and ballot access deadline is long past. Kean will be nominated even if he announces today that he's out of the race (or if he's dead). If he's out, GOP committee members pick a new nominee. I suspect they know he's out of the race and are both a) scrambling to coalesce around a nominee and b) playing out the clock to prevent potential grassroots insurgency (e.g., someone they don't like spins up a write-in campaign, obviously loses to Kean in a landslide but gets enough votes to make the nomination a shouting match instead of a coronation)

Do non-tech people have rich interior lives? Are they even, in the true sense of the word, human? Perhaps I'll ask ChatGPT

Ignoring the AI of it all for now as that it's own pyschosis, there's a truth that everyone who's ever been very good at something knows: This is near-exclusively a signal of a low performer. If you want to know which guy in the office is the one who never accomplishes anything, just listen for the phrase "sense of urgency." It's that guy. The one who takes 6 weeks of PTO a year and spends a couple hours snacking and BSing every day is the one who knows he can do his job and a couple others without breaking much of a sweat. The guy who forgets to drink water is just scrolling

I empathize with this because no doubt jobs have gotten worse and the 90s look pretty great by comparison. But the youth can’t conceptualize what it was like to work a job like this with no phone/no internet/no headphones. “Three years deep into the company newsletter archive on the intranet” is a different level of bored

A lot worth reading in this excellent piece from Rob, but to me this anecdote tells a lot of the story. We wanted to post about Project 2025 on Kamala HQ. Others wanted to rename it “Donald Trump's Extreme Agenda” because they thought that would test better in focus groups. Project 2025 was a real plan with a real name. The instinct to sand down every sharp edge, run everything through a filter, and replace a real thing with a poll-tested substitute is how you end up with tactics but no brand.

America's elite neocon blue blood reporters have been posting Very Normally this week. It's starting to show up in the trends

Oh no not a nuclear power plant!

I just can’t get over how stupid this was. It’s genuinely like, first day of campaign school to know that the move here is to say nothing about a story like this. If a reporter asks, you just say, “nah, we’re just focused on our message, not gonna get into the mud on it/talk to Abdul.” This coordinated amplification just sprayed an absolute firehose of shit all over @MalloryMcMorrow and immediately removed any semblance of heat on El-Sayed

It rules that every ad now is just you don’t have to know anything or have skills, just smooth brain click button
