    San Francisco: Elon Musk Says Send in the Troops, but Make It Disruptive

    In a city famous for kombucha, kale, and kombucha-flavored kale, it was only a matter of time before San Francisco’s billionaires decided the next great innovation would be fascism—but with better UX. On October 12, 2025, the San Francisco Chronicle reported the unthinkable: Elon Musk and Marc Benioff, two of the Bay Area’s most inflated

    Orwell Meets New Trump Reality: 2 + 2 = Whatever the Algorithm Says

    Somewhere between your tenth doomscroll of the morning and your third attempt to remember which war we’re supposed to care about this week, PBS quietly aired the most important documentary of the decade — Raoul Peck’s Orwell: 2+2=5 — and almost no one noticed, because there wasn’t a trailer trending on TikTok. It’s a film

    The AI Bubble Is Eating the Economy Alive (and Still Asking for Dessert)

    There’s a fine line between innovation and collective delusion, and we are currently sprinting across it in a pair of $2,000 AI-branded sneakers financed at 22 percent APR. Fortune’s latest interview with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management CIO Lisa Shalett reads less like financial analysis and more like a desperate intervention at an industry support group.

    Portland, We Have a Problem: Trump’s “War on Antifa” and the Authoritarian Dress Rehearsal

    Somewhere in a Pentagon sub-basement or a Mar-a-Lago group chat, someone must have said, “What if we just did 2020 again—but meaner?” Because here we are, October 2025, and President Donald Trump has decided to reboot his greatest hits tour: the “War on Antifa.” It’s like the “War on Drugs,” but with fewer facts and

    The Great Halftime Faceplant: Turning Point USA Declares War on Bad Bunny (and Loses Before It Starts)

    The Super Bowl halftime show used to be about pyrotechnics, wardrobe malfunctions, and the occasional left shark dancing off-beat. Now it’s a referendum on whether America can tolerate hearing a language other than English for more than three minutes. Welcome to 2026, where Bad Bunny will headline the official NFL halftime show—and Turning Point USA,

    Liberty Vote or Liberty Lost? Why Dominion’s Sale to a GOP-Led Company Should Make Us All Nervous

    On October 9, 2025, the Associated Press confirmed what election administrators had been whispering about: Dominion Voting Systems—the same company dragged through the mud with lies about 2020—has been sold. The buyer? Liberty Vote, a newly formed company led by Scott Leiendecker, a former Republican election official and founder of pollbook vendor KNOWiNK. The purchase

    Bad Bunny’s SNL Comeback and the 51st Season’s Cultural Cruising Missile

    The moment Saturday Night Live returned for Season 51, it felt like an updated version of a political reset button. A bilingual monologue, a defense of art in a politically fracturing country, and a cold open so sharp it felt like glass in the face. Against the backdrop of shutdown fights, Pentagon sermons, and presidential

    Elon Musk Demands ‘Cancel Netflix’—Because Inclusion Is the New Taboo

    Elon Musk, the self-styled “King of Free Speech,” is no stranger to drama. Yet on October 2, 2025, he lit a fuse that smelled less like free-speech fireworks and more like cultural annihilation. Via his X platform, with 227 million followers watching, Musk called to “Cancel Netflix.” His target: a clip from Dead End: Paranormal

    Rival Queens and Viral Warzones: Cardi B vs Nicki Minaj

    Rap’s version of battlefield diplomacy rarely comes with ceasefires. On the night of October 2, 2025, the feud between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj flared anew—and not in diss tracks or stadium tours, but across social media, text threads, and half-deleted taunts. Cardi accused Nicki of being “on heavy drugs,” bipolar, schizophrenic, a “possessed drug

    Dominion and Giuliani’s $1.3 Billion Secret Settlement: When Lies Pay and Democracy Gets the Bill

    There’s a peculiar magic trick the powerful love: make a noise so loud it draws attention, then vanish the outcome so no one can reverse-engineer the fraud. Yesterday, a mammoth defamation case—one purporting to demand $1.3 billion from a man who spent years amplifying election falsehoods—ended not in a verdict or a sensation, but in
