Calm down, Chicken Little. The stock market is not a bubble. Just because it’s a thin sphere of liquid that expands every second of every day doesn’t mean it’s a bubble. It could be anything.
You’re worried. You’re saying numbers can’t go up and up forever. I’m saying take a look at the stock market. It’s a light-as-air orb that is floating higher and higher. There is no way that ever stops. It’s not possible.
You really think this transparent domed enclosure is a bubble? Okay, Nostradamus. Next, you’re going to predict tonight’s winning lottery numbers, or tell me when the Red Sox will win the World Series again. Go ahead, I’ll wait.
Maybe you need to get your eyes checked. Not every air-filled spherical cavity is a bubble. That happens all the time in nature for all sorts of reasons. In this particular case, it’s because the American economy is 100 percent healthy and has no underlying issues.

A: Hey! Just saw your message. Sorry for the delay—got swallowed by a glacier that migrated south. I’m inside the ice now. Surprisingly roomy. Hope you’re well.
B: Oh my god, I’m so glad you made it through. That must’ve been really frightening. I’ve been meaning to check in, but the moon’s been stuck really low for days, and everyone in the apartment building has moon sickness. The landlords taped aluminum foil over the windows, but it made the insomnia worse. Do you want us to send you heat lamps?
A: That’s so kind, thank you. I would say yes, but the glacier developed a consciousness yesterday. It doesn’t like artificial light. Calls it “the synthetic burn.” It sings to me at night. Also, I think it’s trying to teach me patience through sub-zero isolation. Miss you.
B: Miss you too. Honestly, not surprised about the glacier. The earth’s crust cracked open here last week, and we lost four Whole Foods. My roommate’s been building a pulley system out of old USB cables so we can send down granola bars to the people who fell in. The pit keeps whispering my name.

An insecure Labour Prime Minister, down in the opinion polls, taking the side of rogue shipowners against trade unionists in an ultimately futile attempt to appease the interests of investors? Keir Starmer, who sacked Transport Secretary Louise Haigh last year over her description of P&O Ferries as a ‘rogue operator’, would do well to look […]

New Jersey area Jewish leadership described a factual Grayzone report about Charlie Kirk’s falling out with Netanyahu as “hateful, divisive, and antisemitic,” and weaponized it to cancel the book event of a Palestinian children’s writer who reposted the article on social media. The New York Times uncritically published the bogus allegation. Palestinian children’s author Jenan Matari says she believes The New York Times “was trying to put a target on [her] back” when it publicized the fact that she recently […]
