I was addicted to scrolling. So I built an IOS AND ANDROID app that keeps the habit, but replaces the content. Now every swipe teaches philosophy, history, science, and world news. I turned doomscrolling into learning. It’s called BrainScroller. 👇 Want a link? apps.apple.com/us/app/brainsc… play.google.com/store/apps/det…

Never in a million years would I have thought that one day Twitter would be bought by Elon Musk and be a subsidiary of SpaceX.

@StarPlatinum_ Never have I seen a list where most of the people that appear on there are felons, especially by Forbes!!! Where is the FACT CHECKING???

@elonmusk You know, Elon, while I appreciate the intent, over-explaining it sends the wrong signal. Seems like you're trying way too hard to defend yourself.

Wow, it’s so crazy the Epstein “killed himself” before realizing he was “innocent” 🙄 And Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for what exactly? Oh yeah. Epstein client arrest counter is still zero.

Meet the NEW FED CHAIRMAN: Kevin Warsh has been very consistent about what he thinks the Fed should do, not just how it should sound. First: stop using emergency tools as standard policy. Warsh has argued QE should only exist for real crises, not as a default growth booster. Under him, balance-sheet expansion would slow or reverse faster. Second: keep rates restrictive until inflation is clearly beaten, even if growth softens. He’s explicitly said cutting too early damages Fed credibility and makes inflation harder to control later. Third: less forward guidance. Warsh dislikes the Fed pre-committing to cuts or signalling paths too far out. Markets would get fewer hints and more uncertainty — on purpose. Practically, that means higher real rates for longer, tighter liquidity, and fewer rescues when trades break.

Powell is out and Kevin Warsh is the guy Trump wants running the Fed. Warsh isn’t some random pick. He’s an ex–Fed governor, very anti-QE, very skeptical of easy money, and way less friendly to rate cuts. Markets read that instantly. If Warsh gets in, rates stay higher for longer. That pushes the dollar up and makes assets like silver less attractive. No yield, no protection when real rates rise. So silver sold off. Not because demand vanished. Not because of a crisis. The rate-cut bet stopped making sense and money moved out fast. This is how markets work. One personnel change can rewrite expectations overnight. Funds reposition, leverage gets trimmed, and prices adjust hard and fast. Nothing dramatic. Just macro reacting to new information.

@BoringBiz_ Optimism seems to be decaying day by day with every new generation; it's incredibly tragic.

This was an eye opener from Jensen Huang When asked whether he would rather relive his 20s or be 20 years old today, this is what he had to say: "I thought our 20s were happier than these 20s. I think everyone deserves some time to be oblivious, and not wear all of the world's problems on their shoulders on Day 1 We are raising a generation that is very cynical and too informed They are cynical, not because they are inherently cynical. They are cynical because they see so much stuff. It is too much stuff You have to build up some internal reserve of optimism. You have to build up some reserve of goodness."

@CardinalMason While their marketing was genius, I just haven't encountered many times in my life where I needed their software.

Genuinely curious what happened to Cluely They had all this motion. Where’d it go

@VadimStrizheus @Allan_Ryan_ I mean I agree on not using Ai to reply, but I was just using the minute to reply as my personal example. Besides it can't really be calculated if I'm being honest.

@TheOGHamad @Allan_Ryan_ Never will use or have used ai to reply. Also your logic of taking a minute to reply is off.

EVERYONE needs to hear this Alex Hormozi quote. “Do so much volume it would be unreasonable for you to fail”. I’m averaging about 400+ replies a day and the results are finally starting to show. Volume negates luck. X is all about consistency and volume! 🫡

@gaxrav To steal from all is Entrepreneurship

to steal from one is plagiarism, to steal from many is research.

@bluewmist My advice: move one step at a time. The person who sustains one habit for two years will always outpace the one who juggles five habits for three months.

Normalize this by age 25; • Wake up at 4 Am • 4 hrs of deep work • Cook your own food • Keep your life private • Spend 1 hr in the gym • Mind your own business If you want to transform your life in 6 months, do this…

@seraleev Thank you :)

@TheOGHamad SHIP. The more you ship, the higher your chances of success.

In 2025, I sold 5 apps and made $44.5k Tovoice – $2.5k NumaDaily – $2k Stitchkit + TextBlur – $6k CaptionKit – $34k Small exits. Real money.

@1Umairshaikh Features over marketing. Distribution is King

What immediately tells you a startup won’t last?

@hustle_fred I tried this and it actually worked! I stopped focusing on building, now its purely distribution until I get enough feedback and achieve my milestones.

If you're at $0 MRR right now: week 1: ship a "one feature" product — yup, one feature is enough week 2: DM people on — Reddit, LinkedIn, X, Instagram (underrated) week 3: most people won't reply — keep dm-ing people, don't give up week 4: find 5-10 people who'll try it — they will probably sign up, but not use it week 5: ask them why they don't use it — they will tell you what is missing week 6: do updates based on their feedback — tell them to try again week 7: DM more people — keep repeating 2-7 until people pay i'm on week 24, it works👌

@DudespostingWs If I have a daughter I'm gonna make her lift weights from day 1, thats just the way it works lol.

@CultureCrave @USATODAY I wish it looked more like the comics, I know James Gunn and Craig Gillespie are going to crush it, but man did everything have to look so brown???
