ngl I'm fairly skeptical of wealth taxation but it is funny how it has tech guys suddenly saying that maybe their AI note taking app might not be worth its unicorn status

In the next four years you’ll see a lot of New York Post articles about City Hall that don’t make sense when you read them as an outsider because they’re just permission to hit the anger button in the reader’s brain. This is about seeing someone non-binary in power and getting permission to be mad.

The clean energy transition keeps rolling through 2025 with 92% of new power capacity added to grid coming via solar (50.5%), wind (10.3%) and battery storage (31.3%) — which follows 96% clean capacity added in 2024, per chart/analysis of EIA data! https://bit.ly/4qnTene
Chart: Clean energy remains dominant in the US -- despite Trump
Trump spent much of 2025 boosting fossil fuels and blocking renewables, but 92% of new power additions through November were solar, wind, or batteries.

If you know anyone IRL whose views of Trump changed like this, you should probably try to push them to reconsider where they’re getting news from. Because anyone genuinely surprised by Trump’s actions this year must be marinating in the most dogshit information environment imaginable.

People love to shit on Dems but House Dems, in the face of an authoritarian executive branch and deferential House Speaker have in the first year: forced two discharge petitions (Epstein and ACA), and might win a government shutdown. Not bad for the minority!
it really feels like the end is near for Mike Johnson's speakership after a critical mass of House Republicans this morning forced a vote on ACA subsidies over his resistance

It's simple: anyone making under $36,000 a year is allowed to be openly racist, for class reasons. Between $36k and $100k you get to make racist jokes with your friends but you're not allowed to use slurs at work. Anyone making above $100k can only be racist in euphemisms, unless elected president

This sort of absurd, ultra-bleak reading of the remarkable prosperity of modern societies is not only embarrassingly wrong - and I saw a historian retweet this sincerely (!!) - but also helps fuel not materialist, left-wing politics, but rather reactionary right-wing politics ('RETVRN-ism').

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
