Billionaire and co- founder of Palantir says says he’d gladly pay a 90% tax rate but only under one condition. palantir co-founder: “i’m f*cking rich, michael.” “i would pay a 90% tax rate if we could keep our society competent” “if we could stop having illegals swarm into our country… “if we could fire unaccountable bureaucrats… “if we could put systems in place to make our government competent… “if we could stop having regulators harass, destroy, and impede builders… “i will pay whatever taxes that takes. “i’ll pay 90% of my fortune. “we need our country to be functional for my kids, my grandkids, and everyone else.”

@heisdenji i don’t want to believe this is true because what do you mean, you kind of want both but you love your spouse more ??? confused gender

A married woman says the man who hit her car became the person she couldn’t stop texting. Caller: I was in a minor bumper-to-bumper accident. We exchanged information with a stranger which turned into a friendly conversation. Caller: Then it turned into a texting conversation. I’m happily married, and I never would’ve thought I’d do something like this. Caller: The only thing holding us back is that we’re an hour apart. That’s why I haven’t physically done anything to destroy my marriage, but the conversation keeps going through the phone. John Delony: This is like a movie you’d find under your neighbor’s bed when you were a kid. Tell me how I can help, do you want to rebuild your marriage or do you want to be with this guy? Caller: I want to be with my spouse but I can’t. I kind of want both, but I want my spouse more because I love him. Caller: I just don’t know how to end something I never thought I would do. John Delony: You hit delete, you block him, you never contact him again. Then you sit down with your spouse and be honest about what’s happened. Caller: I don’t know if I can be honest with my spouse, I feel like it would open up a jealousy issue. John Delony: Of course it should, the whole thing is a fantasy from an emotionally charged moment. John Delony: Why in the world would the person who hit you on the highway text you the next day and ask how you were? Caller: I don’t know, I guess it was nice, I guess I felt desired and I hadn’t felt that in a while. John Delony: He hit you with his car, I would’ve thought, “This person’s trying to make sure I don’t sue him.” Not ooh

@heisdenji nah, he’s comparing two specific projects, not saying one is always better than the other

@Paris_dnd so is state owned better than individual?

One project launched 300 rockets. The other spent even more money and still wasn’t finished, according to the Palantir CTO. palantir cto: “for $10 billion, elon musk put 300 rockets in orbit.” “for $11 billion, the state of california has built 1,600 feet of elevated rail… with no rail.”

Ft. @ssankar

@0xdomkelechi Jennifer Garner’s commitment to the role is exactly why Alias turned out so well. 👏

Jennifer Garner revealed how she prepared for her role in the hit show Alias, which included taking karate classes alongside small children. Jennifer Garner: I went to the yellow pages and I just looked up the biggest ad near where I lived for martial arts. And so I started taking karate class with like five and six year olds. Jennifer Garner: I auditioned so many times and by the end, I said, would you like to see my karate forms?

@blond3dBee Nolan, great guy

Matthew McConaughey gave Timothée Chalamet one piece of advice he never forgot. Timothée Chalamet: "What did you learn from Nolan?" Matthew McConaughey: "Nolan is my favorite director to this day." Timothée Chalamet: "The Dark Knight made me want to act. Inception inspired me. When I read Interstellar, I thought it was going to change the world." "But I learned just as much from you as I did from him. You both treated the work as something sacred." Matthew McConaughey: "Nolan was the first one up the hill every morning and the last one down every night. He never made something simple complicated." Timothée Chalamet: "On Interstellar, there were scenes where I was floating in space. Instead of using expensive equipment, he'd hold the gimbal himself." He'd say, "It's a waste of money. What I learned in independent filmmaking is still the best way to get this shot." Matthew McConaughey: "What stayed with me wasn't just watching you perform. It was how prepared you were." Timothée Chalamet: "I remember coming to set one day, and you looked at me and asked: "How does that tractor work over there?" "I had no idea. I laughed, and you said: "No... you should know. If you were on this farm, you would know." "I went back to my hotel that night, printed out pages of research, and learned everything I could about that tractor. That changed the way I prepare." "When we did Dune, I studied every button on the spacecraft control panel. I wanted to know what every switch did, even if the audience would never know." Matthew McConaughey: "That's our job. To create a world that feels real." "Take more risks.." "In the creative arts, it's not about being right. If you're right all the time, you're probably not taking enough risks." "Don't be afraid to look foolish. Because once you're willing to embrace that... nobody can stop you."

@heisdenji i agree, nothing compares to a great film on the big screen.

Leonardo Dicaprio explains why he believes there’s no better art form than cinema. Interviewer: What is it about cinema that we love so much? Leonardo DiCaprio: It’s the communal act of being with other people in the theater. It’s very hard to make a good movie… but it’s very hard to connect an audience and put them in a set of circumstances where they have empathy for a character. Going to see a movie with other people allows you to laugh at moments that may seem uncomfortable… or connect with the characters in a way you didn’t experience in that moment. It’s one of the most immersive art forms there is. I got to do my first movie… and I sat home and went to theaters and watched movies for a year straight. There ain’t no better art form out there. I hope it stays alive.

@Chuksdakingz thats wild

Kathy Griffin reveals she has a painting of herself in her home painted by convicted k*ller Erik Menendez. ​"I have a painting of myself in my house. You walk in and you're like, 'What an asshole, she got a painting of herself,' until you see the artist. You look down: Erik Menendez." ​"He's in prison. I call it a staycation. I think prison's a little harsh." ​"Erik Menendez, he had one bad day. We all have a bad day." ​"The New York Times took a picture of me under it on the cover of the Style section."

@Tokyo_pi1 tinder cover photo 🤣🤣🤣

Matthew McConaughey says he witnessed the most Miami thing ever. Matthew McConaughey: “I see this guy posing on a purple and pink Lamborghini under a palm tree. I’m thinking, ‘Wow, nice car.’” Guy: “Nah, man. I rented it for the day.” Matthew: “For what?” Guy: “My Tinder cover photo.” A few minutes later… Another guy: “Hey, can I use your Lamborghini for my Tinder pic?” Guy: “Sure. Fifty bucks.” Matthew: “Wait… that’s not your car, and you’re charging people to fake like it’s theirs?” Guy: “Yep.” “He wasn’t embarrassed. He was proud of it.” Miami is a different planet.

@_Jeffery0 i was furious when i saw her statement on kylian

“A Paraguayan senator made a racist comment about Kylian Mbappé… and Mbappe destroys paraguay senator Speaker: Mbappé played against Paraguay. Their whole game plan was injury, agitation, frustration. It was a nasty game. “They kept trying to get under Mbappé's skin, but nothing happened.” “A senator from Paraguay put out a message. She said, "Instead of having breast milk, he grew up sucking on coconuts. The most educated creatures he ever heard of are chimpanzees." Mbappé responded, "What an embarrassment you are to your country. Your country has all these incredible things to be proud of, and you made it about yourself. Shame on you." He also said, "You are a despicable woman and unworthy of your position. You do not represent Paraguay." Then she says, "I come from a society where those kinds of things were normal. I'm trying to build a different society. Have patience." Then she says, "But Mbappé hasn't apologized to me." And she says, "If you don't, I'm going to do to you what we did to Ronaldo. Did you forget what we did to Ronaldo?"

@0xarslan Big ups to Rick Ross

Rick Ross says every record label CEO in the world flew to LA to sign him after "Hustlin'" Ross: "I had every record label in the industry fighting to sign me early '06. Every CEO in the world. They flew from overseas to LA to meet me everywhere you could name." Ross: "I may have took, out of let's say 30 meetings they wanted me to take in a 3-day span, I may have took three." Ross: "At that time, I was like, 'Yo, like the shit actually worked.'" Ross: "You got to realize I've recorded hundreds of records by this time, and this is the very first time this shit jumped through the roof."

Ft. @elonmusk | @PeterDiamandis

Elon Musk says the world is about to change faster than most people can imagine and he doesn’t think retirement will matter. Elon musk: “we are in the singularity.” “i think we’ll hit agi in 2026.” “you’re at the top of the rollercoaster about to go down.” “don’t worry about squirreling money away for retirement. it won’t matter.” “i don’t just have courtside seats… i’m on the court. it still blows my mind multiple times a week.”

@jbransonx @mcuban @elonmusk well said jason 👏

@Paris_dnd @mcuban and @elonmusk get a lot of hate but I love them both. I love my closest friends, who are also blunt assholes. Nobody is perfect all the time. I don’t want them to be. Perfect is boring

Mark Cuban says Elon Musk texted him “f*ck you” and called him a racist after he criticized Tesla. Theo Von: “You mentioned Elon a little bit ago, i know you guys have like, i don’t think it’s feud, what is it and almost seem romantic a little bit” Mark Cuban: “i just like to f*ck with him, i don’t dislike Elon” “i’ll tell you one little Elon story, So i didn’t get to know him but i helped him with something and so i had his number and i texted him couple times” “like he had a kid and i’m like congrats on your 97th kid and he text me back, Mars needs kids, Mars needs people” “so one day i had a tesla and i said something about it and he just sends me a text with the article saying “f*ck you”, that’s it, just f*ck you” “He’s called me racist, he’s called me poop emoji multiple times... that just gives me license to f*ck with him even more”

@uncvoss as it should be honestly

@Paris_dnd Great speech overall 👏

The Undertaker asked Donald Trump why he’d keep risking everything. Listen to Trump’s answer. The undertaker: “you’re a billionaire. you’ve got a beautiful wife, a wonderful family… and you’ve got people shooting at you. you don’t have to do this.” Trump: “i feel like i have a purpose… and it’s to rebuild our country.”

@PieRsqaure What a leader does

@Paris_dnd Bro is taking bullet for his country

@heisdenji bro i’m shocked too 😄

@Paris_dnd why is the undertaker getting involved with politics lol

@Cinema_says tom is 30 😂

Zendaya saying "Girl..." to Tom Holland after he forgot the phrase "wise owl" is the kind of relationship everyone deserves. Tom: "Fox? No." Zendaya: "Girl... Owl!" Tom: "Owl, oh! The wise owl." After Tom finally got it, Zendaya teased him again: "You're... you're 30, though."

@_Jeffery0 lmao don’t get him into trouble

Tom Holland refused to fall for this spoiler trap. Interviewer : what was your favorite little nugget that you that you uncovered? Did you have one? Tom halland : I think I have to keep that a secret. “I have a bit of a reputation.” “And I think fourth time is a charm.” “We're not spoiling anything on this press tour, and this is day one.” Interviewer : So, we will not be spoiling anything today. I don't want to get you in trouble.

@0xarslan Jude is definitely a rockstar 😆

Ian Wright calls Jude Bellingham a "rock star" puts him in a different category to Harry Kane "Harry's like gold. Harry just delivers" "But this he is a rock star. Jude Bellingham like in the sense of he's just completely and utterly different" "If you said to me how many world class players I said Harry Kane is the only world class player we've got. Jude probably and Declan have got a bit to do to get into that category" "If you said to me now, five World Cup games later, how I've seen him play yeah, I think he's world class"
