3,000-year-old block fuels claim of lost Egyptian city linked to Exodus

Archaeologists at Tell Abu Seifi in northeastern Egypt uncovered a large sandstone beam inscribed with Ramses II and Horus and found a fortified temple citadel, suggesting the site could be the ancient city of Mesen along the Horus Military Road—a route linked to biblical Exodus narratives. The find strengthens a historical hypothesis but is not conclusive, and researchers will continue excavations to verify the connection between the discoveries and the Exodus-era city.

Newsom Opposes California Billionaire Tax Amid Exodus Fears

California’s proposed one-time 5% billionaire wealth tax has been added to the November ballot despite Gov. Gavin Newsom’s opposition, with supporters arguing it would curb wealth concentration; Newsom warns the tax could trigger a mass exodus of wealth and talent to Texas or Florida and calls for a federal approach instead. The measure has endorsements from Bernie Sanders but faces legal challenges and skepticism over its legality and economic impact, amid concerns it could harm startups and investment in the state.

Exodus Burnout: BioWare Veteran Says Ambitious RPG Nearly Killed Him

BioWare legend James Ohlen, longtime designer behind Baldur’s Gate 2, says leading ArchetypeEntertainment’s ambitious sci‑fi RPG Exodus—funded by Wizards of the Coast and due in 2027—took a toll on his health, describing it as having to cut the vision in half under constant pushback and lacking a protective executive to shield the creative process. He left Archetype before Exodus shipped last year and is now working on RPG adventure books with Jesse Sky, with no plans to return to running a video‑game startup. Exodus is notable for time‑dilation mechanics and a Mass Effect‑style vibe, with Matthew McConaughey involved in some capacity.

California’s Billionaire Tax Faces Backlash as Realm of the Ultra-Rich Signal Relocation

California’s proposed Billionaire Tax Act would impose a one-time 5% wealth tax on residents with more than $1 billion in net worth, with about 90% of proceeds earmarked for healthcare and the rest for public education and food assistance. The measure, backed by SEIU-UHW, faces stiff political and legal headwinds, including opposition from Gov. Newsom and notable billionaires who have begun relocating business interests or considering leaving California. To reach the ballot in November, organizers must gather roughly 875,000 signatures by June 24. Experts warn revenue is uncertain and could be offset by capital flight, while supporters argue the tax could raise tens of billions to address budget gaps. The outcome remains unclear as debates intensify and potential challenges loom.

Billionaires Consider Leaving California Over Proposed Wealth Tax

Tech billionaires Peter Thiel and Larry Page are considering leaving California due to a proposed billionaire wealth tax, which aims to tax assets over $1 billion at 5%, potentially raising $100 billion for healthcare. The move is part of a broader trend of high-profile entrepreneurs relocating to states with lower taxes, such as Texas, amid concerns about California's fiscal policies and regulatory environment. The tax proposal still needs to gather enough signatures to appear on the 2026 ballot, but it has sparked debate over its impact on innovation and the state's economy.
