General reminder that if you mute the current US president's surname on here, you will miss absolutely zero important news. Even right now. But your timeline will do way less stacking damage to your mental health.

It’s old-fashioned to defend mainstream journalism these days but some of the most reliable reporting from people actually on the ground will be the AP and Reuters the next 24 hours. Your Substack journalist writing takes will be using frontline reporting from them.

Yeah. I remember those days too. This is wild!
When I was a kid, I was worried that Reagan was going to start a nuclear war and kill us all.
Incredible that this era is so much worse.

If any journalist wants to talk to a trans man with a PhD in Human Genomics who was trained in labs that studied the evolution of sex, I'm right here
Or just keep platforming Republicans who have a 5th grade understanding of biology so they get more trans people killed, sure 🤷🏻♂️

Taking one of these apology shaped objects as meaningful is *just as much a huge red flag* as thinking any of its other output is meaningful.
It's a sign you've got the exact same brainrot as the guys calling it their girlfriend.

Elon Musk’s chatbot has been “undressing” women and children in public. Journalists are letting xAI off the hook by pretending the bot is responsible.

A cold start to 2026 and staying cool for first 10 day at least. Turning a little less cold with risk of rain from Tuesday but still cooler than average and a lot of uncertainty beyond Tuesday. The heating bills will be climbing 🥶
