@naval So it seems! Nothing is as good as it seems. Nothing is as bad it seems.

The real winner in the election is Elon Musk.

Imagine 4 years of this …

I stand at the seashore, alone, and start to think. There are the rushing waves mountains of molecules each stupidly minding its own business trillions apart yet forming white surf in unison. Ages on ages before any eyes could see year after year thunderously pounding the shore as now. For whom, for what? On a dead planet with no life to entertain. Never at rest tortured by energy wasted prodigiously by the sun poured into space. A mite makes the sea roar. Deep in the sea all molecules repeat the patterns of one another till complex new ones are formed. They make others like themselves and a new dance starts. Growing in size and complexity living things masses of atoms DNA, protein dancing a pattern ever more intricate. Out of the cradle onto dry land here it is standing: atoms with consciousness; matter with curiosity. Stands at the sea, wonders at wondering: I a universe of atoms an atom in the universe.

Here it is:

San Francisco’s homeless population was entirely cleared out for Xi Jinping. The government can easily fix our cities overnight. It just doesn’t want to.

@SrBachchan Je baat!

T 4798 - They tell me don't run, you'll slip and fall, you are eighty one .. I tell them , yes I shall trip and fall, but shall stand up again and run !!

@elonmusk Well, should he not think that? I would like the president, democrat or republican, to always think like that.

Biden’s mistake is that he thinks he was elected to transform the country, but actually everyone just wanted less drama

I never ask this, but I'm asking now: Please retweet this. Texas plans to kill Melissa Lucio in four days. Five jurors say evidence was withheld from them. A bipartisan majority of the Texas legislature favors clemency. Why are you waiting, @GovAbbott? nytimes.com/2022/04/22/us/…

@tobi Well. There is clearly innovation in Crypto and then there is clearly irrational exuberance. A rock gif NFT selling for millions seems to belong to the later. As cliche as it sounds, some of it does feel like tulip mania. And there is reluctance to admit emperor has no clothes.

I talked with someone who collects rare stamps but doesn’t get NFTs. Didn’t quite know how to approach that.

Clarity!

@BrianFeroldi @orangebook Why can’t the long walk be just that? Is there really a need for chemicals?

@orangebook If there was a pill that delivered all of the benefits of a long walk it would be the most valuable drug on earth

Long walks are physically healthy, mentally relaxing, creatively stimulating, all at once.

@micsolana Frankly it would be fine if we could just build a coast to coast (3k miles) viable hyperloop( or similarly fast system ) and nothing else with the $1.2 T. Ultimately, America needs a spark that could light up the future. @elonmusk @paulg

what percent of the $1.2 trillion dollar infrastructure spending will be allocated to the construction of things that have never before existed?

Expect little from others. Have high standards for yourself. That’s the secret of a happier life.

@paulg Makes sense @paulg . Not sure why people feel the need to ridicule when there is dissonance in ideas. Let ideas play out (including the crazy ones). Those will find a path or die automatically

@JoeBiden @KamalaHarris Congratulations on a wonderful start. The day feels different - As if the thick fog of war is lifting, the bruised bodies and souls are starting to heal, as if we are regaining a sense that was long lost. Best of wishes to you both!!!

It’s a new day in America.
