Murphy: This is also a political tool for Trump. You see what he’s doing with these universities and law firms... I think it’s likely the same thing could happen with the tariffs: each big company or industry will have to come to Trump to get tariff relief in exchange for political loyalty…

#NowSpinning Dutilleux The Shadows of Time. I have inexplicably neglected this composer in my listening, only very occasionally turning to his works. But why? This is wonderfully evocative music with masses of teeming detail. Amazing!

Any remaining arguments against the rearmament of Europe just evaporated in front of the eyes of every single European head of state this evening.

One is a wannabe dictator and one is the president of a democratic country.

Can you guess which is which?

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

Bothsidesism in journalism is often just ridiculous, but in these dramatic times it is nauseating
Is Zelensky’s Approach to Trump Hurting Ukraine?
Through three years of wartime leadership, Ukraine’s president has mostly played weak hands wisely. But his approach has fallen flat with the Trump administration.

Are you suggesting that it is Zelenskyy the one to blame for the predatory behaviour of others? Harder and harder to understand some headlines in supposedly liberal US media

I'm writing a story about ~the media~ and my reporting indicates we're fully cooked!
Poll results showing 45% of teenagers say journalists do more to harm democracy than protect it. Poll results showing 67% of teenagers are not concerned about the decline in the number of news organizations. Poll results showing that 69% of teenagers believe news organizations intentionally add bias to their coverage, and 80% believe journalists are more or equally biased to content creators.

Getting started with prompting AI in three (free) posts:
1) Easy prompting for most: www.oneusefulthing.org/p/getting-st...
2) Approaches to prompt "engineering": www.oneusefulthing.org/p/innovation...

Twitter didn't gain relevance by being the biggest platform, it gained relevancy through the quality of the content and individuals. The main goal for everyone here should be to encourage global defender, media, and establishment accounts to transition to #BlueSky. That'll provide legitimacy.

Here’s a crazy fact for you: Spain and Germany have now seen basically the exact same amount of economic growth post-2008. Would have been unthinkable to people during most of the 2010s. Spain has seen ~10 percentage points more cumulative growth since 2017.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc
