While we’re all thinking about our voter demands, I want all those betting platforms decimated. Into dust.

Sports betting is illegal again. Or at a minimum, sports betting advertisements are banned.
Now that Bluesky is the official social media app representing the popular will of the United States of America™️, what is our first cultural decree?

He's testing the waters and betting correctly that if Schumer/Jeffries are the leaders, there will be no accountability

There is basically no better way to lose money than betting that American politics will stay the same indefinitely
the basic conceptual problem with this entire approach is it assumes a static issue and political environment. it treats the existing lines of conflict as permanent and projects from there.
david shor started the popularist movement because circa ~2020 he had a model that showed that showed democrats were essentially guaranteed to permanently lose the senate majority, literally projecting that republicans would get a 60 seat supermajority this year

We shouldn’t be betting the future on fiction.
Some climate scenarios assume we’ll remove 10 to 30 billion tons of CO₂ a year by 2100. Today, novel carbon removal pulls out just 0.002 billion tons, about 17 minutes of our annual emissions.

This risks delaying the cuts we know work.

An N.B.A. Player Got Hooked on Sports Betting. Soon, He Became the Bet
The N.B.A. player Jontay Porter got deep into FanDuel, and in debt to the wrong people. The only way out, it seemed, was to gamble on himself.
