- Every time a shipper tells me that a package might have been stolen, I get so excited. Right now, a band of thieves is kicking off their brand new life of crime with four bottles of Lao gan ma spicy chili crisp, and I couldn’t be happier for them.

- A few weeks ago we posted a pic of our little lead model of a man.... Someone only went and KNITTED HIM! And he's absolutely the most adorbs thing we've ever seen! 😍😍😍 @marialaliccymru.bsky.social - you're amazing! 😘
- "I know you're angry about immigration" says Starmer on Twitter. No. I am supernova furious at your casual assumption that everyone in the UK is an intolerant racist. And that therefore it's fine to treat immigrants like dirt because you're in tune with the prevailing mood. Get in the bin.

- This is the problem with X in a nutshell. You fundamentally can't trust the product, because the owner will trash it's functioning in an effort to make the world match his batshit views. It's as if Henry Ford was not just antisemitic, but stitched anti-semitic propaganda into every Model T.
- Musk telling Twitter engineers to boost his profile & push him into everyone's feed was bad enough. Musk making his AI a mini-me that turns every conversation into "but lets talk about white genocide" is next level. Next, Grok will start offering to inseminate females on X. bsky.app/profile/elad...

- Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all
- Over on X, Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok is glitching out and inserting information about “white genocide” in South Africa in response to hundreds of completely unrelated user queries about everything from sports to Medicaid cuts.
- Someone's been poisoning that AI engine. Just goes to show how quickly AI can be poisoned by malcontents.

- In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “Across the world, we’ve seen democracy in retreat,” writes A.G. Sulzberger, the publisher of The New York Times. “This anti-press playbook is now being used here in this country — and it could not come at a more difficult time for the American press.”
- Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey. They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵
- Meanwhile, in developments that will astonish precisely no-one, I got my official autism diagnosis today at 12.58 and 43 seconds.
- Translation: Republicans in Congress want to pass giant tax giveaways for the wealthiest Americans while ripping away health care from 14 million people across this country. Cutting health care for babies to make a handful of billionaires even richer.

- For over ten weeks, Israeli forces have blocked food, water and medicine from entering Gaza. With over two million facing famine and the Netanyahu Government planning to seize all of Gaza, will the PM back a joint plan to recognise Palestine and end this appalling blockade?
- It’s time to cap the “out of control” salaries paid to Vice Chancellors at Australian universities. Australia’s Vice Chancellors are among the highest paid in the world, at a time when the institutions they oversee are plummeting down international rankings. New analysis:
- It is deeply irresponsible for organisations to continue to use X as their primary social media platform.
- The worst element of what happened this week isn't even about immigration specifically. It's that Starmer surrendered against populism.
- When he first came to power he pledged, explicitly, to kill populism through competence. He no longer speaks in these terms anymore. This week he used to language of populists -elite conspiracy, lurid language, fear of the outsider.
- But more importantly, he gave up on effective policy. He promised voters they could have everything they wanted with no pain. In pursuing that false short-term agenda he took actions, particularly on care, which will worsen life in this country and help feed populism in future.
- I'm sure they'll sell this to themselves in No.10 as killing populism. It'll do no such thing. He is sacrificing the single greatest electoral and political opportunity he had: to stand up in four years time and show people that serious government works.

- Coulter has a point, especially when you consider that upon receipt Cleveland began using the colossal neoclassical sculpture as a nonpublic personal transport—including trips to and from political fundraisers—and post-presidency used it as the primary ticket-sales driver at his presidential library

- BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.
- Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” was just released. It would terminate health insurance for 14 MILLION Americans. This is not a drill. We need to fight back.
