companies are sourcing millions of printed books for AI labs that scan them for training data, then destroy them. printed books are more valuable because they're free of AI slop, and AI labs know destroying them is an "optics problem."

AI Companies Are Buying Tons of Old Books Because They're Free of AI Slop
ISBNdb, a company that sources printed books for AI companies to turn into training data, tells clients “the optics problem is real.”

“.. While crude flows from Persian Gulf nations (ex Iran) have recovered to 80% of pre-war levels, the same is not true for refined products. Their exports of gasoline, jet-fuel, and diesel, remain at around 50% of pre-war levels.”

U.S. intel also indicates that Iran retains about 75% of its pre-war inventories of mobile launchers & about 70% of its pre-war stockpiles of missiles, per a U.S. official. The regime has also been able to recover underground storage facilities & repair damaged missiles

Marco Rubio: Operation Epic Fury is over. Our preference is to return to the pre-war status for the Strait of Hormuz.
🇺🇸US Senator: But the SOH was already open before the war? So what was the point of whole war?

Day 1290 of my 3 day war. We have taken 80,000 casualties to not yet capture Pokrovsk, a town with a pre-war population of 60,000.

I remain a master strategist.

Russia plans to spend 17.1 trillion rubles or $202.58 billion on Putin's war in 2027. This is a 206% increase from Russia's 2021 pre-war military budget of $65 billion. Putin will bankrupt the Russian people before he will give up on his dream of restoring the Russian Empire.

Even if the strait reopened tomorrow, experts believe it would take a year for gas prices to fall back to pre-war levels.

And let’s be clear, the strait was open before the war. Returning to baseline is not a win.

Trump has burned through around a third of US stockpiles of key precision munitions in his failed war in Iran, ABC reports.

Day 1346 of my 3 day war. Pokrovsk had a pre-war population of 60,000. I've lost 120,000 casualties to capture half of it.

In this clip Kevin Hassett predicts 4-5% GDP growth this year.

Comparable 2026 forecasts from...
Fed: 2.4%
WSJ survey of economic forecasters: 2.1%
CBO (from Feb, pre-war): 2.2%
FT/Clark Center survey: 1.9%
IMF (Jan, pre-war): 2.4%
OECD: 2.1%
BARTIROMO: We know we just came off of the worst quarter for stocks in several years, we know oil prices have risen 50%. What's your expectation for your impact on economic growth?

HASSETT: I think this is a temporary distraction that will very very quickly go away

Take note of all corporate media that parrot Israel's propaganda of "pre-emptive strike." Call it out immediately.

Also, take note of all the Democratic war hawks who tacitly or publicly rationalize this illegal war.

Let's try to learn something, anything, from the disastrous War on Terror.

SEN. @ossoff.bsky.social : “Draft-Dodging Donald loves sending other people’s children to war… Just 2 weeks into this war Trump said he needed $200 BILLION to fund it — that’s a decade of nationwide universal pre-k… instead, a war no one voted for, and no one can explain.”

💥 Let's arrest Netanyahu and hold him in pre-trial detention until his war crimes trial in the Hague.

Trade oil for free. No sanctions.

A $300 billion reparations fund.

For NOTHING. Just going back to pre-war status.

Even Fox can't sugarcoat this disaster.

lmao that’s like a third of pre-war capacity
U.S. officials say the White House believes it has more room to escalate because hundreds of oil tankers have managed to leave the Gulf through the strait in recent weeks.
