AI is putting a massive premium on curiosity. The kind of person that used to get lost in wikipedia rabbit holes is learning more than ever. Others are using it to outsource their homework.

This isn’t 2020 as we can’t just turn the global economy off and then on like what happened with Covid - the level of capital destruction that is happening at the moment means there is no switch to turn back on. 2020 doesn’t apply here. thenewdaily.com.au/news/politics/…

Also caring nothing about the thousands killed and many more maimed, as usual, mainly civilians. And as for the broader stupidity of creating chaos, simply not capable of grasping it.

Sources confirm Rupert Murdoch advised Trump to launch Iran war: 👇Bloomberg. Murdoch’s Australian ranters have their “messaging” instructions, ignoring impact on Australia’s economy and supply lines.

Nails it - the commander in chief is not a rational actor
Esfandyar Batmanghelidj@yarbatman

In a discussion with @michaeljswalker on Friday, I said that Trump was being presented options to strike civilian infrastructure in Iran. The aim would be to cripple Iran’s economy and to make it harder for Iran to persist in the war. I explained that hitting Iran’s critical infrastructure might shorten the war, but it would also intensify it. For that reason, that overall damage done to region and the global economy could end up being far worse during a shorter war. If Trump hits a major power plant, Iran will respond by hitting utilities in the Gulf states and Israel—including power plants and desalination facilities—and will count on the fact that it has to hit fewer targets to have a bigger impact. Iran has nearly 500 power plants, Israel has around 50. The largest Iranian plant, the Damavand Combined Cycle plant, accounts for about 4% of Iran’s total capacity. Israel’s largest plant, Orot Rabin, accounts for 20% of electricity production. The fact that a US president is posting a message like this on social media represents a total breakdown in the systems that are meant to ensure the US fights wars intelligently and judiciously. The commander in chief is not of sound mind, no one in his cabinet is willing to admit it, and we are being pushed towards the edge of an abyss.

I got up at 3 am. I’ll be on the road all day today. Tomorrow in Luxembourg, we’ll be discussing the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children and what Europe’s response should be. Childhood has an expiry date. I fear that by the time we finish talking, some of these children will already have become adults. Former children with erased identities, trained to shoot and raised by the Russians to hate, will go to kill and die in any country in the world where Russia tells them to go and kill and die.

72,000 killed in the genocide in Gaza. 1 million+ displaced in Lebanon. 1,700 settler attacks in the West Bank. And now war in Iran. Sending 20,000+ more bombs to Netanyahu isn’t just immoral—it’s illegal. That’s why I introduced legislation to stop it.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa·
Over the past week, Russia launched nearly 1,550 attack drones against Ukraine, more than 1,260 guided aerial bombs, and two missiles. Over that same week, due to the easing of sanctions, Russia increased its crude oil sales to finance its war. Revenues give Russia a sense of impunity and the ability to continue the war. That is why pressure must continue and sanctions must work. Russia’s shadow fleet must not feel safe in European waters or anywhere else. Tankers that serve the war budget can and must be stopped and blocked, not just let go. I thank every leader who makes such decisions. This is what brings a dignified peace closer.

Whether it’s mistreatment of the old, or exploitation of the to, so much about our attitudes & policies to housing are broken, fairness sacrificed. @SatPaper editorial on aged housing

“Good. I'm glad he's dead”, Trump on the death of Robert Mueller, who volunteered for Vietnam when his blue blood family connections could have got him a deferment, won a Bronze Star for valor, and a Purple Heart and who served F.B.I. director in the immediate aftermath of 911.

@TheLyonsDen knows better than anyone that copping this sort of campaign from the lobby means he's doing good journalism
Antony (Tony) Walker@tonywalker1

So, the ABC received '103 (cut and paste) identical complaints' about a Mr Lyon's critique of a knee jerk Albanese government response to Mr Trump's reckless war on Iran. Sure sounds like an active WhatsApp group active in other attempts to bully the ABC. theguardian.com/media/2026/mar…

I realized that @TheDailyShow is the best way to present news for my psyche. The essence is still clear, but the emotions are different. Thank you for preserving the mental health of people 💪
