@cptdankkk If a company offers you something crazy like that, they probably knew that it would be a good deal for them and not you

Tony Hawk reveals turning down $500,000 from Activision was the best financial decision of his life "When they were close to launching the game, they started to sense that there was buzz about it. It was already getting good reviews from previews and they felt this surge of interest" "They offered me a buyout of future royalties right before the game launched. They offered me half a million dollars. They said you get that right now and then no money going forward" "No one had ever spoken those types of numbers to me before, but I felt like I was in a pretty good place. I was doing well in other ways. I was still skating a lot, doing events, I had good endorsements, and I thought I'm gonna take a risk and I don't need that money right now"

@elonmusk Flame trench needed for that load

Size does matter

@TheLizVariant It’s not even about money for Elon, it’s about doing what he loves to do and making sure he can continue to do so.

SpaceX just gave Elon Musk the most unhinged bonus structure I’ve ever seen • 200 MILLION shares if he turns Mars into a functioning city with 1 million people and hits a $7.5 trillion valuation • Another ~60 million shares if he builds massive data centers… in space • Miss those goals? He gets absolutely nothing Not reduced Not delayed Nothing Regular jobs are like: “hit your targets, here’s a small bonus and a starbucks card” Elon’s job: “successfully relocate humanity to another planet or clock out”

@rushicrypto Recession definition is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. We’ve had a few in the last years.

As someone who was an adult during the 2008 recession, why haven't we called this a recession yet?

@mikemajlak @MrBeast Yeh fuck em

@ScottMo01568252 @MrBeast so basically you don’t think dumb people (and by the way, YOUR perception of dumb people) deserve to be saved

Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.

@mikemajlak @MrBeast No…red wins both ways. The logical answer is red. If everybody voted red, then everyone survives, and if not all people vote red, then red still survives. This is a test to see how dumb people are.

i think the question really asks: do you believe in the collective good of mankind? blue button pushers still believe an innate good in their fellow humans, that they will band together to do the right thing. red button pushers believe society is past the point of no return and every man is for themselves.

@BarackObama From what you just wrote. You basically support a racist system? That’s what I gathered from it.

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach. The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

@edyuwam @Pirat_Nation Definitely will push it underground but this will lower the per capita which in turn will reduce long term health issues.

@Pirat_Nation question is will this actually reduce smoking or just push it underground?

Parliament has passed the UK’s Tobacco and Vapes Bill to create the first smoke-free generation. From 2027 the legal age to buy cigarettes and tobacco will rise by one year every single year. Anyone born on or after 1 January 2009 will never be legally able to purchase them in their lifetime. Current adult smokers are completely unaffected, this only targets future generations.

@hollyberry130 @RupertLowe10 @lukejcr I genuinely wanted what was best for the people I love. At the time, I believed Labour would deliver that. Over the years, I’ve realised they haven’t. From what I’ve seen, the left has shifted sharply further left, while the right has moved more towards the centre.

@ScottMo01568252 @RupertLowe10 @lukejcr So u have no idea wat u want then, confused being and interesting 🧐

So ‘Restore Britain’ far right clowns want to scrap public sector translation services. That policy is dangerous NONSENSE. Here are 5 examples why: 1️⃣ Our military would be unable to translate NATO intelligence when it isn’t in English. 2️⃣ A&E doctors would be guessing a tourist’s allergies eg if they were going into anaphylactic shock. 3️⃣ Criminals could walk free because key witnesses, such as visitors who see a major crime, couldn’t have their statements translated. 4️⃣ Intelligence services would be unable to carry out foreign language work. 5️⃣ Border Force would be severely weakened by an inability to conduct in-depth foreign language interviews. Impractical, dangerous discrimination.

@RupertLowe10 @lukejcr I’m 26, and I’ve voted Labour my whole life. Last year I voted reform although I didn’t agree with everything they offered, it was better than what Labour offered. This time, I’m voting restore. I’ve simply had enough.

@lukejcr Good to see Labour attacking us too now. We really are making progress.

Both societies exist simultaneously. really incredible to think about

🚨BREAKING: The nationalities of people who benefit the most from the lifting of the two child benefit cap has been revealed 🇬🇧 Of course, white British families benefit the LEAST whilst up to 41% of foreign families will benefit from the change❗️ We are being RINSED ⚠️

@_MaxQ_ I’m currently on that dark side of the Earth, tired… very tired!

OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS

@_Jionni @Britannica The combined equatorial diameters of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune total about 236,000 miles, so they technically fit with minimal margin when lined up.

@Britannica I don't think you can fit Jupiter in there... 🙄

The Moon is around 250,000 miles from Earth. It's so far that you could fit the other seven planets into the space between Earth and the Moon.

Around 117 Billion people have existed. Pictured here, are the 4 humans who have ventured the furthest from our cradle.

Owning a home is FAR more difficult for young men and women today than it was for my generation. That’s just a fact. Average earnings have not kept pace with average house prices - to suggest otherwise is ignorant. The gap has grown at an astronomical rate. The young have every right to feel pissed off, I’m angry for them. And I detest this patronising attitude of people my age that we just happened to manage it all so much better through ‘common sense’ and fewer avocados. There are millions of young Brits who work hard, take care of their money and dedicate themselves - and yes, they are struggling to find a proper home. They have done nothing wrong. In fact, they’ve done everything right but the system still failed them. I am ensuring that there is a political party to finally represent them - Restore Britain is that party. A party that supports the aspirational and committed young British men and women. Scrapping interest on student loans. Stripping back the power of empire-building planning bureaucrats who cruelly prevent sensible house-building in fair locations. Crushing the overbearing regulations that make building anything so very cumbersome. Overhauling leasehold rules which trap owners with mutating service charges. Ending the vindictive war on landlords to make sustainably renting a proper option. Slashing tax to hand back financial control. Entirely abolishing stamp duty for Brits. Because we will not tinker with the status quo, we will not conserve it, we will not reform it. We will fundamentally change how this country operates. The model must break. I will make you one promise. Restore Britain will break it.
