When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.

Trump is taking America back to old-fashioned stagflation. It will impact us all — and our super balance Under the hood, the American machine is breaking, impacting the global economy and engendering uncertainty. Every Australian working through our superannuation funds can expect to be affected.

Donald Trump’s economic ineptitude and the reckless US-Israel assault on Iran is impacting the global economy. Expect things to get worst, write Glenn Dyer and Bernard Keane. www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/09/a...

Pete Hegseth’s Troubled Soul The defense secretary appears unable to approach matters of of life and death with even the slightest bit of reverence or humility.

Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon briefings since the war against Iran began “have reminded the world why he is exactly the wrong person to hold the position he does,” Peter Wehner argues:

Xiaomi Now Using Humanoid Robots to Assemble Electric Cars The Chinese tech giant Xiaomi successfully deployed two humanoid robots on its EV assembly line in Beijing.

"The two humanoid robots are able to keep up our pace."

I know people are all up in arms about Chalamet but this is 100% on point and we should be talking about it a lot more.

Prasad and Makary are 100% linked to Trump, MAGA/MAHA and everything happening now. One reason that it was dangerous to minimize them is because it signaled that the entire MAHA/MAGA project wasn’t really anything to worry about.

That’s why I get mad at people who blew off warnings about them.

The “Tehran Square” Hegseth refers to here does not exist. He’s probably thinking of Tahrir Square in Cairo. Azadi Square would be the rough equivalent in Iran.

It Is Not Okay For Grown Adults To Believe Infantile Fairy Tales About Iran Reading by Tim Foley:

"It’s not okay for grown adults to believe the US government tells the truth about its wars and the reasons it wages them.
It’s not okay for grown adults to believe the US are the Good Guys who are fighting evil Bad Guys like the heroes in a children’s cartoon show."

here’s a prediction…the tech that Pixar uses to make films isn’t prohibitively expensive like it was in the 90’s. thats not a barrier anymore. eventually, some lean, mean indie animation studio, probably a bunch of young people, will make a movie full of heart that will beat Pixar at their own game.

Well, this aged exactly how I was afraid it would

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.

I feel like we don't shame bad idea startups enough. I don't think it's possible to OVER-shame bad idea startups.

Or startups in general, really.

All the wrong people have imposter syndrome.
