Prediction markets and generative AI share a key problem: at some point they start using their outputs as inputs.
CBS NEWS PARTNERS WITH KALSHI CBS News is partnering with Kalshi to integrate prediction-market data into its 2026 midterm coverage. CBS joins CNN, Fox News and NBC News in highlighting prediction markets as part of their coverage

TC is a better man than I, because my intention is absolutely to rub it in here. Eat shit, pickup truck morons!
Look, my intention is not to rub it in here, but I've been interested in electric cars for a very long time because I have been blessed with a memory longer than that of a goldfish.
My flavor of Midwestern cheap is about stability in costs, not just what's cheap today.

Elissa Slotkin is the person on here who most frequently makes me want to quote tweet with "shut up bitch" but I don't because it feels misogynist. Major English curse lacuna for "birdbrain coward."

Bizarre that in this very thread she acknowledges the horrifying wars and the hate crimes against Muslims (or anyone who looks like they could be) but concludes with this "shared bond" nonsense. Shared bond with who, the racists and warmongers? I don't want to have a bond with them!
But that feeling of a shared bond among all Americans in the early weeks after the attack is something I’m so glad I got to experience. Because it’s the thing that I think we’re missing the most today.

Real "there are five lights" moment
Here’s a meta video of some of the large groups of empty seats you can see as President Trump is saying there aren’t any empty seats in the arena.

Vote buying. Any state prosecutor with ambition can bring charges immediately on Jan 21 2029 and put this in evidence. He's pleading the elements!
Trump: "If the Republicans win the House of Representatives and the United States Senate...I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States of America for $5,000."

This is how you know socialism will win. Dummies like this see wealth taxes, free buses, and government-owned grocery stores and claim everyone supported that all along!
One of the wildest things about Mamdani to me is he’s de facto governing like a Rockefeller Republican but slapped a “this is democratic socialism” label on it and everyone loves it
Like, the dude tried to cut library funding, he posts photos of him shredding red tape, this is the New England GOP

These polls rock because the actual turnout is always like 50%
Here is a screenshot from a new CNN/SSRS poll in Michigan.
It shows that Democratic voters are 14 percentage points more likely than Republicans to say they are extremely/very motivated to vote in November, 87% vs 73%.

Love that modern America is somehow less egalitarian than Ankh-Morpork
The richest man owns X.
The second and fourth richest men control Google.
The third richest man owns The Washington Post.
The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
And now the seventh richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?

One thing I'd love to see is for a newspaper to just call Trump a liar. "Claims without evidence" is a euphemism that clearly hasn't communicated what is happening, which is that the President lies constantly. That's news! "President Lying About X" is an unbiased headline!

After Nuremberg II we need to have a reckoning on the News Industry. It has utterly failed in its ostensible goal of informing the public. If we let this information environment continue, we will be right back in the clutches of our most insane morons in ten years.

Media in this dumb asshole country acts like they have no agency, that they simply Report The News, not realizing that they are the gatekeepers of what is The News! Part of their job is to use discretion on what the public needs to know!

The only Hasan Piker thing I ever saw was his 2024 election night stream where he was clearly supporting Harris and had urged his audience to vote for Harris. Dems simply cannot accept that this guy is on their team!

Shoe is a dodo bird but does she belong on Post-Left Watch? She got famous for posting on 4chan as an anti-feminist.
Shoe: "Until there's a Democratic Party that isn't prisoner to identity politics or isn't completely cucked by race grievance, I'm not a Democrat. And until there's a Republican Party that actually cares about workers and isn't completely cucked to a certain foreign country, I'm not a Republican."

Good question! The answer is we tried that and it didn't reach all the people who needed it and then got cut unilaterally by our nation's biggest pedophile. Hope that helps!
Hear me out. What if instead of selling food below cost to all comers at taxpayer expense, then using more taxpayer dollars to subsidize private companies that can't compete, we had a program targeting nutritional assistance just to the people who needed it, as a sort of supplement?
