NFL free agency: Five teams that must make a major splash in 2026 nfl.com/news/nfl-free-agency-f

Donald Trump said the United States was beginning to talk with Cuban leaders
as his administration puts greater pressure on the communist-run island and cuts off key oil supplies.
This comes in the wake of his moves in recent weeks to cut off supplies of oil from Venezuela and Mexico,
which he suggested Saturday would force Cuba to the negotiating table.

There's a long list of problems with the AI mania. I'm hopeful that locally-run LLMs will at least prevent some: surveillance, dependence on OpenSauron Inc., and environmental pollution from desperately racing to maximize shareholder value before the NVIDIA shovels they bought are obsoleted by shovel2.

Content warning: Uspol, Iran, necropolitics

Seeing Iran appoint new leaders and continue to fight is seeing the more literal kind of necropolitics in action, as a hierarchical system continues to function while replacing the expendable human parts that it lost. The system is of course changed and influenced (and ultimately was built) by humans, but it has become something undying, or at least almost as hard to kill as an idea, and it maintains a terrible inertia in it's destructive tendencies (e.g., "Morality Police" continue to patrol the streets).
Lest anyone think this somehow expresses approval of US actions, the same logic applies here too: what once had a (thin) verneer of democracy, a system which loudly proclaimed to be controlled by "the people" (but which never was nor was ever intended to be) has lost its paint job, exposing the inhuman machinations beneath. Trump is a symptom, not cause, of an institution built on blood and spoils, whose alignment with the Epstein class (and moreover, their institutions) is ever more apparent with each disregarded law and principle.
Stepping back for a moment, this systems/necropolitics perspective is just a perspective, with its own distortions and blind spots. To paraphrase LeGuin, any institution built by humans can also be changed or destroyed by them. But I think it's very useful to put on the systems goggles in this moment, especially when some are fond of preaching about the dangers of "overwhelmingly powerful systems unaccountable to humans which pursue destructive ends" without actually examining the plethora of existing systems that do just that.
P.S. yes, United Healthcare is another good example of this.
P.P.S. yes I bending the meaning of necropolitics here, but the two are related: these systems would not be so free to profit from human death and suffering if they were more vulnerable to the deaths of their constituent parts. Necropolitics of the standard variety is of course present as companies like Raytheon and Lockeed Martin profit from the carnage. The F-15 caught by friendly fire? Just as profitable for Beoing to replace as one downed by the enemy.
