Always great to talk to @niedermeyer.online, but it’s especially fun when his insights help explain tangible ways people can deliver a blow to Elon Musk’s power. Check out the new episode!

It really feels like the Steelers organization has no idea what they are trying to accomplish. Really sad to see as a kid who grew up in the late 1970s in Pittsburgh.

Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"

Hear the sirens. If the warfare state replaces the welfare state, this will further fuel the extreme right. More countries falling in the hands of extreme right nationalists would weaken Europe in an existential way.

This was a great episode. A grounded conversation on why Musk is where it is and how we (yes, we) can dethrone him. Highly recommended.

A pathetic and humiliating walkback from the would-be destroyers of CFPB, who know they've lost in court and can't kill the agency. This email from Mark Paoletta went to employees today. It neglects Vought's Feb 10 "stop-work" email that superseded it, ending all activity with no exceptions.

I follow French politics a lot, as many of you know. Any effort for mass layoffs of public sector employees there would create such huge strikes and marches, the level of disruption and paralysis would be biblical.

Right now, DOGE is saying that any new hires have to be approved by their office. In 1980, when IL Governor Thompson said any new hires had to be approved by his office, the Supreme Court said it was unconstitutional politicization of hiring. What about now? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I had a great time talking @danieldenvir.bsky.social of The Dig about the UHC CEO killing; inequality and mystified violence; gun violence and "healthcare" as indifferent, overlapping systems of human disposability; the history of "attentants"; morbid symptoms, the death drive, and much more
