@colbzz_official @validclipx There's just no chance this is happening. I know she's probably making a lot of money but 7 million is like 14 mil before taxes.
He could have a thousand women for that. Makes no sense.
English
@validclipx So this guy just gave 7 MILLION DOLLARS to this girl to talk on the phone, that’s actually incredibly messed up.
English
DJ Vlad was confused after Sophie Rain revealed that her biggest spender Charlie, who has given her $7 Mil, has a Wife & Kids. The wife & kids apparently know Charlie spends money on her, & all she does is talk to him on the phone when he is Lonely
They have never met in real life, & the biggest amount he has sent her in one go was half a million 😳

@clarke3110 @UnderdogNBA All he cares is that the club he's going to next has good wings. Other than that nothing matters lol. If you took Kobe and made someone the exact opposite it would be Harden.
English
James Harden was asked to self-assess his playoff run:
"I think I did pretty good ... defensively, been extremely solid, and offensively, getting guys shots and fitting into a system that was already in place."
English
@WR4NYGov @kylecordes forbes.com/sites/jeremybo…
In general I don’t believe Forbes but it said her stake was worth 1.2 billion at 300 mil valuation. Even if it’s half that I think she’d be a billionaire though I don’t have hard facts on how much she owns, if diluted, etc
English
@MattStopa @kylecordes If I’ve got the math right, she won’t quite be a billionaire. I’m not sure. I’m right though.
English
Base Salaries:
Gwynne Shotwell: $1M
Elon Musk: $54K
Cash invested in SpaceX startup
Gwynne: $0
Elon: $100 Million
BusinessWeek doesn’t understand capitalism and simple math.
Gwynne understands.
English
@WR4NYGov @kylecordes Pretty sure she'll be a billionaire when they go public. People are acting like she's a charity case. She's going to be ONLY 1 trillion dollar plus CEO that's a woman, on top of everything else.
English
@kylecordes Her Total comp last year was $84M.

@CartallicaX1 @scorsesepoint This is the correct answer. A lot of what Henry said ended up being embellished
English
@scorsesepoint No, silly. 🧄🧄🧄
This is called an "unreliable narrator" which is common in literature and film.
The Henry Hill character recounts the garlic preparation from his limited memory.
Scorcese is not making the claim.
English
In Goodfellas (1990), Paulie slices garlic so thin that it would “liquefy in the pan.” This is a subtle reference to Scorsese having no idea how cooking works.
English
@JDrunkuncle @djvlad @NoahKingJr Even their government is more capitalist than the US. Governors have to compete and finish projects to get more resources. It's more meritocracy based.
English
@djvlad @NoahKingJr They have a lot of capitalist elements …just not socially
English
@djvlad @NoahKingJr China is more capitalist than the United States, by a lot.
English
@ericzakariasson Very impressed. Cost is great. It's slower than Kimi K2.5 but still fine time wise I suppose.
Biggest issue I find is that it wants to look at the GIT history, and a lot of times I know it's way back in time. I find that annoying. I wish I had a toggle to say to ignore history
English
what do you think of composer 2.5 so far? how can we make the next model even better?
want to hear your feedback on behavior, speed, quality, whatever!
English
@mikepat711 He does plenty of things I disagree with but whenever people say he’s not that smart I have to roll my eyes. Now if you want to say he’s greedy I disagree but at least that argument makes you look less stupid
English
You can think Elon’s an asshole. You can disagree with his views. You can boycott his products.
But people who try to argue that he’s a moron/doesn’t know what he’s doing are some of the most embarrassing fucking idiots ever. It’s like trying to make a case that the sky isn’t actually blue despite everyone’s eyes proving otherwise.
English
@evisdrenova That's what competition does I suppose. Someone is gonna realize it's a goldmine and everyone else jumps in too.
English
One fascinating consequence of GLP-1s/Ozempic:
For decades, people said that big pharma would never release actually effective obesity drugs because they’d lose too much money from downstream chronic disease treatment.
We’re seeing almost the exact opposite.
English
@KettlebellDan Well Jesus drank alcohol in the Bible so I'm not sure anyone who believes the bible will be moved off of that
English
“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness”

Be wary of people like Matt who take something objectively bad (alcohol) and reframe it by insulting those who abstain and share their experience for others
Matt Walsh@MattWalshBlog
The anti-alcohol stuff has become totally hysterical. It’s the worst and the gayest of the 90s anti-smoking propaganda all over again. Give up alcohol if you want but the stuff isn’t battery acid. A sip won’t send you to the hospital. A glass of wine ruined three days of your life? When did it become normal and acceptable for men to brag about their weak constitutions? Really weird.
English
@ScottPolhamus I just keep thinking about the debt situation. I don’t see how it doesn’t become a runaway train at some point. Party can’t go on forever
English
@GreenTextRepost Guitars are so particular that yeah unless he’s complaining about how it sounds and looks I wouldn’t touch it. I love taking cheap guitars and making them sound great myself. Having someone else modify it would be annoying. It’s a nice gesture though
English
@MattStopa @MrOldMan9000 I see several ringless, choking plumbers in that photo. Was that the national plumbers convention?
English
MJ was the favorite cause people expected him to win and they were usually right
Lebron used to have that grace, but then he lost 3 YEARS in a row as the favorite 2009-2011, including with a super team
You can give him any superstar like Luka and he'll still lose.
Banis Major@BanisMajor
Bull were the overwhelming favorite in all those series But for a fair comparison:
English
@MattStopa @MrOldMan9000 When you put Jordan against plumbers. Fixed it.
English
@TheQueenBeeBBQ @entreprneursonx It’s fair. Taught him how taxes work.
English
@entreprneursonx Wait hold up. Shaq and his dad each had 5 burgers. They see a homeless guy and his dad takes 3 of Shaq’s burgers while keeping his own?
English
The man who earned over $292 million during his NBA career just revealed where his obsession with giving back actually started.
"My father gets five double cheese, I get five double cheese, that's ten."
"On the way home, we see a guy, the sign says homeless vet, will work for food. So my father snatches three burgers out of my hand and gives it to the guy."
"I asked him, why did you give the guy my food? He said, because this gentleman needed it more."
"If you ever become big time, make sure you always look out for the little man. So that's where it comes from."

@ChuckCook Would actually be great if you got like 10% of the revenue from sharing as you are exposing it to a new audience
