Same as it ever was

The $TRUMP coin was one of the largest liquidity extraction events in crypto history. Once valued at $67.5 billion FDV. Now down 94% and total silence. We don’t talk enough about the damage this did to genuine retail confidence in crypto.

Michael Madsen on how he landed his role in WarGames (1983): "I was going to school to be a paramedic and a friend of mine was an actor in my class, and he took me to an audition he was going to. I just went in with him accidentally because we were hanging out."

I’ve just completed a family tree of my relatives who were all killed in a single Israeli airstrike on October 13, 2023. It reveals that three entire families were wiped out, including my first cousin, Tahrir. My goal isn’t only to honor each of them, but also to challenge the myth behind the casualty ratios Israel boasts about. This is not to suggest that the adult males were combatants—but even if you assumed they were, look at this: Out of the 30 relatives killed, 18 were children, 5 were mothers, one was an unmarried young woman, and one was a 68-year-old elderly man. That’s 24 civilians, without any stretch of definition. That means 80% of those Israel slaughtered were clearly civilians. And if I may add one final detail: the husband of my first cousin—41-year-old Mujahed—was disabled and confined to a wheelchair.

WOIMS WEDNESDAY

God bless God.

To kick off International Workers' Day, here's a thread of #MayDay posters from around the world. Let's start with a 1973 May Day poster from Czech artist František Kopenec.

Still looking for that "Splice Here" shirt.

I really, really want to watch a movie. But, of course, I don't even own a TV.

The “Epstein list” is bullshit. AG Bondi summoned a bunch of pro-government influencers to the White House and held a photo op for what turns out to be redacted versions of already available documents. A pathetic joke. justice.gov/opa/pr/attorne…

Epistemological humility. Look in to it.
