It's well and good to want things, but what are you willing to do to get it? How many lives are you willing to lose for it? How much of an economic impact are you willing to accept? Have you given any thought to the possible unintended consequences of trying this? These fucking children.

Vinod Khosla is pushing to end taxing investment income at a lower rate (capital gains) than salaries then using that money to end taxes on people earning under $100K.

Iranian representatives have let the US know they have a high bar for re-entering negotiations for a cease-fire deal. The IRGC has consolidated power within the Iranian regime and is making demands such as the closure of all American bases in the Gulf and reparations for attacks on Iran.
i'm not running the bluesky twitter account but i would advise them to keep posting like this (genuine)
Rep. Derrick Van Orden: "What we want is the Persian people to be able to rise up and have self-determination. We want the Iranian radical Muslim mullahs to not be able to influence the Middle East and the world economic scenario negatively."
So we're back to regime change!
look, things suck, everybody is allowed to feel hopeless once in a while, but I do think you have some responsibility to limit the contagion caused by offgas from your personal slough of despond
