it’s very easy to dunk on liquid glass for looking like shit and being inaccessible trash but now that I’ve been forced onto a new version of iOS and have first-hand experience with it, I feel it’s important to tell the truth:

it works like absolute shit too. who the fuck’s idea was it to make notifications work like this? who fucking sat there and decided what I wanted from the keyboard was for someone to fuck with its layout for no apparent reason?

Anti-vaxxers continue to claim that #COVID19 vaccines cause “sudden death.” A new study finds the exact opposite—COVID vaccines PREVENT sudden death.

“COVID-19 vaccination was associated with a lower risk of sudden death (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 0.57)."

43% REDUCTION of sudden deaths in those COVID vaccinated.

"Prediction markets aren't good at producing information, but they're amazing at producing corruption. Polymarket and Kalshi have at last realized the unhinged fantasy of "assassination markets" – where you stochastically murder someone by putting up huge wagers at favorable odds that your target will be killed. Anyone can collect the wager by putting up a small counterwager and then bumping off the victim. But, as Protos's Cas Piancey and Mark Toon note, Polymarket and Kalshi know what side their bread is buttered on – they have banned bets on Trump's death (Trump's sons are heavily invested in both Polymarket and Kalshi)" — @pluralistic

this shit is biblically demonic. the eschaton is immanentized, folx. better strap in.

"The U.S. #government is insolvent. That’s not hyperbole — it’s the conclusion drawn directly from the #Treasury Department’s own consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2025, released last week to near-total #media silence. The numbers: $6.06 trillion in total assets against $47.78 trillion in total liabilities as of September 30, 2025."

“Fossil fuel folks in the White House [are] pushing an agenda where we will shut down alternatives like wind farms and solar buildout and start a war that will benefit American companies. A few do well. The rest of us around the world, not just Americans, are suffering because we are so dependent on this.” https://www.texasobserver.org/houston-oil-conference-protest-iran-war/

"Prediction markets aren't good at producing information, but they're *amazing* at producing corruption."

Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic) on the Trump-connected "markets" that take gambling to new depths of depravity.

'President Donald Trump cryptically claimed Tuesday that he got a gift from Iran "worth a tremendous amount of money," telling reporters it revealed to him that "we're talking to the right people."'

So, here's my guess. Trump received a bribe, probably from the Iranian expat community in the US, probably on behalf of Reza Pahlavi. They have no sway. It's all bs. The end.
