Just wow

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy. Not might. Not could. Will — if nothing changes. The paper is called "The AI Layoff Trap." Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled. The conclusion is one sentence. "At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand." An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody. Here is how you get there. A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself. Because the workers who were fired were also customers. When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation. The loop has no natural exit. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements. Every single one failed in the model. The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger. No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it. Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block's workforce and said publicly: "Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion." Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem. Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it. Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place. Source: Falk & Tsoukalas · Wharton School Boston University ·

🚨Huge Boom Near Boston... What was this? "We had a meteorite hit the area. It’s all over different reports it landed east of Boston and it was heard everywhere around the area from New Hampshire down to Rhode Island. We heard it. It shook the house. There’s a video and lots of reporting about it on the TV here." Massive thank you to @ArywoodSt who I quoted here. #ufotwitter #uapX

Please tell me this isn’t real.

Meghan Trainor, Zayn, Post Malone/Jelly Roll tours cancelled thus far in 2026. Who do you think is next to pull the plug? Pussycat Dolls? "Weird Al" Yankovic?

InfoWars shuts down tonight, but if the Globalists think this is the end, they’ve just made the biggest mistake of their lives. We aren't just surviving; we’re evolving. Prepare for the New Broadcast. Tomorrow, May 1. The fight enters a new phase.

Ok, this is actually insane. Apple Maps lets you zoom inside the Apple Park visitor centre to see the Apple Park miniature display model…and you can even see the cafe barista if you keep zooming:

Teaming up with the @GratefulDead has been an absolute dream come true ... but this partnership is far from new news. Sam sat down with @RollingStone to take a deep dive into our partnership and the ways we've been able to build something truly durable. rollingstone.com/music/music…

In 1999, David Phillips bought 12,150 cups of chocolate pudding and turned them into 1.25 million free airline miles. Adam Sandler later made a movie about it. He was a 35-year-old civil engineer at UC Davis when he spotted a Healthy Choice promotion offering 500 frequent flyer miles for every 10 product barcodes mailed in. Double the miles if you sent them in by May 31. Three weeks away. Phillips ran the math nobody else did. The cheapest qualifying product was Healthy Choice individual pudding cups at Grocery Outlet. 25 cents each. That meant $2.50 of pudding bought 1,000 airline miles. The airlines themselves valued those miles at $20. He drove a van across California with his mother-in-law, cleaned out 10 different Grocery Outlets around Sacramento, and stacked 12,150 pudding cups from his garage to his living room. When cashiers got suspicious, he told them he was stocking up for Y2K. There was no way he could peel that many barcodes alone before the deadline. So he called the Salvation Army and proposed a trade. He'd donate every cup if their volunteers peeled the labels first. They agreed. Phillips kept the barcodes. The Salvation Army fed people with $3,000 worth of pudding. And he claimed an $815 federal tax deduction on the donation. He mailed the barcodes by May 31 and waited. Two months of silence. His friends told him corporations always renege on these promotions. His own kids asked if he got scammed. Then a giant package arrived. Paper certificates worth 1,253,000 frequent flyer miles. Lifetime AAdvantage Gold status at American Airlines. $150,000 worth of flights. The Wall Street Journal put him on the front page in January 2000. The London Times followed a week later. Paul Thomas Anderson read the coverage and built Punch Drunk Love around him in 2002. Phillips paid for his movie ticket with pudding. Over the next five years he flew his entire family to 43 countries. Net cost after the tax write-off: $2,325. That's $54 per country.

I am a senior coordinating producer for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. I have worked eleven of these. I was backstage at the Washington Hilton when the shots were fired. The first thing I heard was not the gunfire. It was glass. A champagne flute hit the floor of the International Ballroom at approximately 9:47 PM. Then a second. Then the sound that I have since been told was a 12-gauge shotgun, which from inside the ballroom sounded like a heavy door slamming in a parking garage. Then the Secret Service moved. They moved the President, the Vice President, the First Lady through the east corridor in under ninety seconds, which is protocol, which is practiced, which is the one part of the evening that worked exactly as it was designed. Everything else was improvised. I know this because I ordered the wine. 94 tables. Two bottles per table. 188 bottles of a Willamette Valley pinot noir that the Association selected in February after a tasting committee spent three meetings debating between Oregon and Burgundy. Oregon won. The budget was $14,200. I signed the invoice. I can tell you the vintage. I can tell you the distributor. I can tell you the per-bottle cost because I negotiated it down from $89 to $76. What I cannot tell you is how 147 of those bottles left the building during an active shooter evacuation. I can tell you what I saw. A correspondent from a network I will not name picked up two bottles on her way to the east exit. Full bottles. One in each hand. She was wearing heels and she did not spill. A man in a tuxedo tucked one inside his jacket the way you'd shoplift a paperback at an airport bookstore. A woman picked up a bottle, looked at the label, put it back, and took a different one. She checked the vintage. During an evacuation. That's editorial judgment under pressure. The theme of the dinner was "A Free Press for a Free People." The banners were still hanging when the evacuation began. I know because I hung them. Twenty-three banners, navy blue, gold serif lettering, $11,400 for the set. They were still hanging when 2,600 guests were directed to the exits by Secret Service agents, one of whom had just taken a shotgun round in his ballistic vest and walked to the ambulance on his own feet. The agent's vest costs approximately $800. The wine that left the building was worth $11,172 at Association cost. At restaurant markup, roughly $29,000. The guests saved more in wine than the vest that saved the agent. That's priority. The video went viral by 10:15 PM. Not the video of the evacuation. Not the Secret Service response. The wine. Three guests in formalwear grabbing bottles off white tablecloths while being told to move toward the exits, while a man with a shotgun stood in the same motor entrance where John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan 45 years ago. A woman near the service entrance was crying. She said "I just wanna go home." She was not holding wine. She was holding her phone. She was the only person I saw that night who looked afraid rather than inconvenienced. That's the distinction. The rest of the ballroom did not look afraid. They looked interrupted. An active shooter at the WHCD is a logistical problem. The dinner was disrupted. The timeline was off. The after-party at the French Ambassador's residence would need to be rescheduled. These are contingency matters. Contingency matters have solutions. Fear is for people who attend events without security details. I have produced eleven of these dinners. I have managed seating charts that require diplomatic-grade negotiations. I have handled comedians, cabinet secretaries, network anchors, and the editor of a major newspaper who once threatened to leave because his table was behind a column. I have never, in eleven years, seen a guest leave a $76 bottle on the table during an evacuation. I have also never seen a guest check the label first. Both observations are consistent. The bottle is worth taking. The evacuation is worth surviving. The instinct is to do both simultaneously. 188 bottles placed. 41 recovered. 147 unaccounted for. One agent shot. Zero guests injured. Zero bottles broken. A free press for a free people. The press is free. The wine was $76 a bottle. They took it anyway.

Bro they are removing the journos from the ballroom and journos are taking all the booze with them two bottles at a time LMAOOOOO
