london is a city that dares to ask the question: what if there was a world-class capital with bad weather, high cost of living, mediocre food and miserable people? nevertheless, it persists

missed opportunity for Gooniverse tbh
From last night’s Breaker: Daniel Kolitz, whose Harper’s piece “The Goon Squad” won a National Magazine Award for Feature Writing, has landed a book deal with Farrar, Straus and Giroux to write “GOONWORLD.” breakermedia.com/p/the-infor…

As the White House and Elon Musk point fingers at one another over who restricted Starshield to Ukraine, here are some of the real life repercussions for troops on the front lines. From @siobhan_ogrady, @carlottagall and @antontroian nytimes.com/2026/10/21/world…

The Starlink/Starshield blame game continues, and no one is taking responsibility for limiting the satellite internet services to Ukrainians. Musk last week said the decision was with Trump. Now, Rubio says that Musk had the decision-making power. xitter.cf/jimmysecuk/status/2112…
Nobody wants to own up to crippling Ukraine's military communications: Marco Rubio is now stating that SpaceX has the ability to modify the operation of Starshield without the direction or consent of the American government.

the reporting and photography, including of this Madagascar child drinking from a gold mine's waste water pipe, is incredible. the story is infuriating. a look at how dirty gold is laundered into the world economy, with help from the one org meant to regulate it. nytimes.com/2026/10/19/world…

There are about 72 million kids under the age of 18 in the US. SpaceX's closing share price on Friday was $146.03. If Musk were to actually follow through on this commitment, his gift would currently amount to around $10.5 billion.
Next year, I will give one of my SpaceX shares to every kid in America. This will be the first of many.

Also worth noting that Musk has a history of making philanthropic pledges and not following through. In 2018, he pledged to “fund fixing the water in any house in Flint that has water contamination above FDA levels.” He did not. nytimes.com/2026/10/19/busin…

For the first time this year, data centers have become targets for bombardment in global conflicts. Our analysis shows at least 27 such attacks in 2026. Experts worry the targeting of data centers opens a Pandora's box that cannot be closed. nbcnews.com/tech/security/da…
