A new investment thesis has spread through global markets at the start of 2026, as trading strategies long built on the primacy of the United States now opt for a new approach:
Sell America.
The sentiment started to take hold in financial circles after the shock of sky-high tariffs sent stocks and bonds into a tailspin last April,
but it has taken off recently as the Trump administration has pursued policies like attacks on the Federal Reserve’s independence and threats of …
As a scientist myself, I have been wondering, if there was a pattern of #Epstein's support to research. In addition to support for "AI" research, there's this:
"One disturbing explanation for Epstein’s support of science comes from his interest in genetic determinism. This idea, which dates to the eugenics era, is still fashionable in some wealthy circles [...]."…
"In the early twentieth century,
Mecklenburgh Square,
a hidden architectural gem in the heart of London,
was a radical address.
On the outskirts of Bloomsbury
known for the eponymous group who "lived in squares, painted in circles, and loved in triangles,"
the square was home to students, struggling artists, and revolutionaries.
In the pivotal era between the two world wars, the lives of five remarkable women intertwined at this one…
What’s everybody’s read on the attempt at a second general strike this Friday?
From where I sit, it feels much more like a social media action than the on the 23rd; I don’t see the unions or same kind of organizing infrastructure behind it.
On the other hand, apparently it •is• getting a lot of social media traction in some circles? “All I see posts about,” said one student.
What’s the read from where you sit? Does this one have legs? Or is it a day to keep our powder dry?

i found these two gems at the record store up the street and, at twelve bucks each, couldn't resist. i listened to these LPs (and dream weaver and forest flower) a ton in high school.

That “chatter” isn’t just showing up in activist circles. People who’ve never even heard the phrase “general strike” are starting to talk about the need to shut everything down.
Whatever happens Friday, we are at the very least opening the window of possibility a little wider, laying some groundwork.
So freaking difficult to get through to a human in Amazon customer support. Shitty AI bots sending you in circles 🙃 What a shit show.

Looking for a citation. I used to have it and cannot find it. This diagram of two half circles depicts a world ending and a world emerging. I saw it on a poster in a video of lady giving a talk. I don't think it was a Youtube. I've searched through my history and my files and I don't where I put this info.
She is an activist. Anyone know who she is? Or have an early source of this diagram? (I'm less interested in folks who have ripped her work without citation). Thank …

And also, again and again — people need to know this! — I get these messages too:
ICE started to gather, but dispersed when too many observers showed up.
ICE vehicle headed back to base after being tailed in circles for an hour.
ICE started abducting someone, but let them go as the gathered crowd got larger and larger.
These people •really• do not want to be observed. Typical bullies: they cosplay tough guys, they waggle their gear around, but they •behave• like they’re afraid.

I agree with the storyteller: the experience of having a slave is abhorrent, simulated or not, and this story is a window into something •deep• about the present moment. Even without having slaves, we are all in danger of having a •slaver mindset•. It’s a disease that’s running rampant now in billionaire-shaped techno-utopian circles.
I wrote this thread on the topic earlier:

…and even having written that, it’s still shocking — not surprising, exactly, but shocking — to hear those thoughts expressed so baldly by the colleague in the story above.
