One of the funny things I keep noticing in trials for blood pressure medications is that placebo groups frequently report more side effects.

I suspect this happens because the treatment group ends up less anxious when their blood pressure is controlled.

Here's an example:

Maybe Claude's usage consumption was just a release-day phenomenon.

It seems to not be destructively inefficient anymore.

Inflation is increasingly outpacing American incomes:

Real disposable income fell -1.1% YoY in April, the biggest decline since October 2022.

On an annualized MoM basis, this metric dropped -5.6%, the biggest decline since May 2025.

Furthermore, real personal income excluding government transfer payments fell -0.4%, the 4th monthly decline in 5 months.

This metric captures after-tax income from labor and capital sources while excluding government support such as Social Security and unemployment benefits.

Over the last 6 months, real personal income excluding transfer payments has declined by an annualized -1.8%, the largest drop since 2022.

Historically, such weakness has rarely occurred outside of a recession or an economic slowdown.

Inflation is eroding the purchasing power of most Americans.

Most big companies are sticking with the quieter approach from last year.

Fewer rainbow logos , splashy campaigns, and big sponsorships.

It’s all amid consumer backlash, post-election shifts, and DEI pushback.

I think what really broke the camel’s back is kid safety.

People just don’t want brands funding β€œkids at Pride” parades and drag shows.

That was the LGBTQ+ movement’s biggest mistake.
