A few days ago, a tik tok user posted a video explaining how his cybertruck accelerator pedal cover had slipped upwards and wedged against a wall of the footwell, holding the throttle open. That’s now led to a recall of every delivered cybertruck. threads.net/@masiosare/pos…

I hate that i have to do this again, but this is my twitter list of mostly Iranian Americans covering the country, who are insightful and also know US politics. If you're looking for perspective and news. x.com/i/lists/948203…

🚨 BREAKING: House filled with Freedom Caucus farts 🚨

The Netanyahu government—filled with grifters, fanatics, and Bibi's cronies—simply isn't competent to handle the situation they're in. The U.S. has no choice but to impose strict limitations on any assistance provided to them. nytimes.com/2024/04/17/wor…

Shareholders are 'being asked to re-approve the [2018] grants in 2024, and 'we need to reward Musk for making this a $650 billion company' is a bit of an odder ask when it’s actually a $500 billion company.'🎯

Next Tuesday (4/23) FTC will convene an open commission meeting to vote on the final rule prohibiting noncompete clauses.

In news that will surprise no one, Bari Weiss's 'free press' is a trashy right-wing blog that doesn't fact check or proofread anything, and even the few facts in its big exposé of NPR turned out to be easily-disproven lies.

Obviously, it would depend on the circumstances. What preceded it? What damage was caused? What was their goal? What is our goal?

I sure hope we wouldn't just mindlessly escalate like an ill-tempered child. You're not suggesting that, right? 🤔

This is the guy who forgot to pro hac before signing pleadings and defending Musk's deposition, and so is now facing a motion for sanctions for the unauthorized practice of law.

my POV as someone who also teaches occasionally is that academia has its own problems (it is deeply exploitative and being picked apart by the worst vultures imaginable) and the alleged CV boost of producing public facing work is a scapegoat. There are no jobs and no money

Donald Trump repeatedly fell asleep during today’s trial proceedings, raising alarms about Biden’s vigor and stamina.

Republicans on SCOTUS wrote 26 pages of preening about 'major questions of national importance' (Kavanaugh, p. 5) to justify using an extraordinary procedure to reinstate an anti-trans law with no purpose except to prevent <1,000 minors in Idaho from receiving medical care.

This is so insane. The MGM hotel is suing FTC Chair Lina Khan bc they allowed her data to be hacked. And apparently that’s a conflict of interest and an intrusion on their due process rights.

So rob the cops, then they can't arrest you. reviewjournal.com/business/casin…

Huh, weird, the 'please think of our ratings' letter doesn't bother to explain what they'll do to prevent these useless debates from turning into platforms for misinformation when one of the candidates, who can't go 30 seconds without lying, starts lying relentlessly.

Search 'explosion Tehran' and you'll find hundreds of blue check accounts making false claims using images from the 2020 gas explosion or the 2021 refinery fire.

There has been no attack on Tehran, Twitter is just a cesspool filled with misinformation these days. Good job, Elon.

Netanyahu is hiding in a rich rightwing friend’s fortified bunker while leaving the Israeli people (along with Palestinians, Iranians and US personnel in the region) to suffer the consequences of his reckless escalatory attacks that blew up an embassy complex and young children.

Sharing this gift link on rising car insurance prices. Insurance companies are evil (I've sued plenty!), but this is a larger problem than that, and the only solutions require we stop focusing our transportation policy around cars. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
