You sound like an optimist. I'm thinking more like this:

My pessimism doesn't come from computers or robots. It come from humans, and more specifically:

This is going to screw over a lot of retired Americans.

Trump and Musk are eliminating 90% of Social Security’s regional staff—and, at the same time, will now only post public updates from Social Security on a platform owned by Musk, where more than 90% of seniors won’t see them. Corrupt, cruel, and wrong. https://t.co/25m3xvCn8e pic.twitter.com/JFXOXQpPpR

Shocking Trump didn't install his own channel as the official communications outlet.
I mean, he can't give that up to Elon.

Extortion? Bribery?

Warner Bros. asked Trump's orbit how to improve their relationship. Trump's people pointed to the $40 million Bezos paid for Melania's doc and suggested giving Don Jr a Discovery hunting show and more pro-Trump voices on CNN https://t.co/cAkCRk92jj pic.twitter.com/KHxVsVQ0Sy

I guess that, on occasion, even con men recognize the concept of a bridge too far.

Moving the communication to twitter isn't a big deal, at all. It is a complete nothingburger.

That female CNBC host is part of the shatshow.
Elizabeth puts her in her place, while Carlos (who Americanized it to Carl long ago) nods, smiles and laughs with pleasure and approval.

SHORT

This is who we needed debating Trump:

SHORT (no pun intended)

Was this his plan to end the war in 24 hours?

A ‘Vladimir, STOP!’ post on Truth Social appears to be Trump’s secret plan revealed to end the war. We have never looked more foolish and pathetic. pic.twitter.com/F4vR3EjNrx

The U.S. alone can't force Zelensky to make peace, unfortunately. Eventually, he will figure out that he isn't winning.

I was searching for a cartoon of Trump walking to the guillotine when I found this instead. Perfect location to drop it for you all.

Trump getting a flying palace aircraft as a gift from Qatar. It's so farcical!
I mean, bribery, emoluments, or how does he even know if the thing will be bugged, tracked, or equipped with an explosive device at 30,000 feet?!?!

Say, I think the Qataris are on to something here!!
