Ken WhiteJack boosting the lunatic RFK Jr. Is no surprise. Entrepreneurs, and particularly techbrahs, are vulnerable to the great-man-outsider narratives because they see it as resonating with their own stories. They’re suckers for all sorts of Kirkland-brand Ubermensch poseurs.

John BullOn 9th May 1386 the Treaty of Windsor was signed between Portugal and England, uniting the two countries in a perpetual alliance.
It remains the oldest active alliance in the world.
In WW2 it would TWICE play a quiet but critical part in the allies' victory over the Axis, to the watching disbelief of Roosevelt and the Americans.
Here's how the treaty came about, was lost, almost got cancelled, then helped Britain in its darkest hour. /1 🧵 #history #histodons #portugal #uk
Coffee PinewoodAnd here a semi-regular reminder.
Antifa literally just means 'anti fascist'.
It's not a club.
And if you 'oppose' the idea of being against fascists then I shall call you by name...
You fucking fascist.

@NerdRage42 haha, prancercizing.
Wendy LadyI'm on a walk with my kiddo and we get to the I-90 tunnel and it's totally empty...then 'Everywhere' by Fleetwood Mac comes on and I start prancercizing with the music blasting to the highest level on my phone to the embarrassment of my son.
Then this runner comes into the tunnel with the biggest grin on his face.
It's the most joyful I've felt in a while.
Dare ObasanjoIt’s a good question whether generative AI means social media will break under the weight of fake content?
On one hand, I agree with @stratechery that this is the next evolution of social media content; your friends (FB) -> influencers (IG) -> everyone (TikTok) -> AI (???)
On the other hand, I expect it will soon be futile trying to determine if a person online is a bot or a piece of content is AI generated.

@dankennedy_nu Fox should be forced to broadcast content warning labels, just like music with naughty words.
