I don’t think anyone suspect her of the leaks. AFAIK she was only made aware of the award this morning..,

The committee and surrounding people are the natural suspects…

all glory to the portland frog and his chicken forerunner, but in the interest of historical clarity (and definitely not clout chasing) I'm pretty sure I was doing the shark costume at Tesla Takedown before the chicken guy showed up

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest. There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day. What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid. It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Speculation about leak of Peace Prize winner: – Very suspicious

Maria Corina Machado won the Peace Prize. She made a jump on betting websites the night before the award. Now the Nobel Institute will investigate possible leaks:

True, and we can’t be sure, as the list of nominees for the Nobel Peace Prize is released 50 years after the prize is awarded, but several idiots nominate Trump almost every year since 2018ish…

If you'd like to delight in a side-by-side comparison, here's Bari Weiss' reported note to CBS staffers (left) and the one I cooked up on ChatGPT with a quickly dashed-off prompt (right). Looking forward to hearing from you in the days and weeks ahead!

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

Nobel bet: – Almost 100% sure that someone has leaked

Overnight, Maria Corina Machado went from underdog to big favorite in the betting market.

Nordea (Scandinavian bank) number cruncher Robert Næss @robertnaess.bsky.social is adamant that the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize has been leaked:

Newsletter: I spoke to experts across financial regulation, gambling, and election law about prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket. They claim to be trading platforms, they look like gambling sites, and the rules don’t fit.

www.citationneeded.news/prediction-m...
Prediction markets are booming. Oversight is barely there.
Prediction markets once lived on the academic fringe. Now they’re trading billions on politics, sports, and celebrity gossip — under rules never designed for retail gamblers.

The famous guitar riff for Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child o' Mine" originated from a "circus melody" warm-up played by guitarist Slash during a 1986 jam session.
While Slash played the riff in a joking manner, bandmate Izzy Stradlin recognized its potential, and the band built the song around it.

Overnight, the odds of Venezuelan María Corina Machado winning the prize exploded. An hour before the prize was announced, there was a 69% chance that she would win, according to Polymarkets.

For comparison, until 12:35 a.m. on Friday, Machado had less than 4% chance of winning:
