Love this. In his “I Agree” installation Dima Yarovinsky-Yahel took the content from terms of service statements for companies like Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Tinder and printed them out on A4 paper with a standard font size for legal contracts to demonstrate the length of these agreements.

This is what a rigged economy looks like: In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker. In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker. This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker. That has got to change.

Watching live on tv I was struck by how the St Peter's crowd was silent when Trump came out (as with other leaders) but spontaneously applauded Zelensky Two other rounds of applause since: when the pope's coffin was brought out (an Italian tradition) and during the homily which called for peace.

NEW: Nike says most of the 1.1M people making its products earn 1.9X their local minimum wage. We obtained a payroll ledger for a Cambodian factory that supplied Nike for two years. 1% of the workforce earned that much. Team effort with @sbmaneyphoto.bsky.social. www.propublica.org/article/nike...

What's extremely funny is Trump's economic advisor has PhD from Harvard, but if you read his work, it's the stuff an econ 1 dropout would write. He also repeatedly cites an economist named 'Ron Vara' in his book, a person no one can find, and whose name is an anagram of his own last name, 'Navarro'.

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

Trump never, ever admits a mistake. Remember the hurricane sharpie incident? Somehow, in American media, if you simply never admit errors but double down, they never call you on it. The only way Abrego Garcia is coming back is if it’s in some kind of face-saving way for Trump.
