its almost awe inspiring how the nyt has managed to become more of dishrag than nypost
This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

"I consider 35-year-olds the most interesting protagonists" is in the Bluesky Terms of Service
Used Our Town in Woodworking because it is the platonic ideal of a play about being 35, and I consider 35-year-olds the most interesting protagonists.
Same thing for "Our Town." Don't make 14 year olds do that play, have a bunch of 35 year olds read that play

since billionaires Karp can’t stop lying, im more motivated that ever to finish my research & prove that AI is bad for the working class
Andrew Ross Sorkin just asked Palantir Alex Karp about masked ICE agents dragging mothers and kids away. "At Palantir, we are on the side of working class Americans."

It’s almost impressive how many truly despicable people the @nytimes.com dealbook summit managed to assemble: Blackrock CEO Larry Fink; Palantir CEO Alex Karp; Benjamin Netanyahu; MrBeast; and, of course, Erika Kirk

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

Don’t. Fucking. Go. To. Starbucks.
BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.

Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.
China’s CO2 emissions have been flat or falling for past 18 months, analysis finds
World’s biggest polluter on track to hit peak emissions target early but miss goal for cutting carbon intensity
