Remember when we had social stability, our basic needs met, we didn’t have war or economic uncertainty? Ya me too. I miss those days.

A sign of greater intelligence is an openness and appreciation of things outside of your experience - and acknowledging that there’s a version of the world that is wonderful in the eyes of someone very different than you.

So incredibly disappointed and heartbroken that the #Oscars and AMPAS chose not to include my father, David Keighley, and his immeasurable contributions to IMAX and cinema in the In Memoriam segment in the broadcast. I will never forget.

@YourAnonCentral I can end Maga with a single speech with a show and tell. They are guided by a false prophet, it requires real biblical truth to break that. I know something no one else seems to know, or knows how to communicate, if they did they'd have already shared it. I just need an audience

Healthcare should not be a for profit industry.
Felix Prehn 🐶@felixprehn

Private equity firms bought 500 hospitals. Death rates in their emergency rooms went up 13%. They fired 12% of the staff. Then they paid themselves billions in dividends. A Harvard study just confirmed what doctors already knew: people are dying so investors can hit quarterly targets. Exactly what happens. A PE firm buys a hospital using debt. The debt gets placed on the hospital's balance sheet, not the firm's. Now the hospital owes hundreds of millions it never borrowed. To service that debt, the hospital cuts costs. Costs mean nurses. The numbers from the Harvard/University of Chicago study are horrifying. After PE acquisition, emergency department salary spending dropped 18.2%. ICU salary spending dropped 15.9%. Hospital-wide employees were cut 11.6%. Emergency department deaths rose 13%, seven additional deaths per 10,000 visits. A separate study found patients undergoing surgery at PE-acquired hospitals had 17% higher odds of dying within 90 days. Steward Health Care, owned by Cerberus Capital, filed bankruptcy with $9 billion in debt after closing hospitals across Massachusetts. The CEO lived on a $40 million yacht while emergency rooms went dark. Eight hospitals serving 2 million people nearly disappeared because a PE fund extracted more cash than the system could survive. The private equity industry has poured over $1 trillion into healthcare. They operate a quarter of ERs nationwide. This isn't going away. The investing angle nobody talks about. Non-PE hospital operators like HCA Healthcare (HCA) and Tenet (THC) are the direct beneficiaries. Every time a PE hospital closes or deteriorates, patients flow to the nearest competitor. HCA has returned 1,200% since 2011. Patient volume from PE closures is a structural tailwind nobody's pricing in. Medical staffing firms (AMN Healthcare, Cross Country) charge premium rates specifically because PE hospitals cut staff. The staffing shortage IS the business model for these companies. The disruption play: outpatient surgical centers (SCA Health, now part of UnitedHealth) are pulling profitable procedures out of hospitals entirely. PE-owned hospitals lose their highest-margin surgeries to outpatient, and the death spiral accelerates. Pull up tradevision and monitor healthcare M&A alerts, hospital closure filings, and patient volume migration data. When a PE-owned hospital announces "restructuring," the patient volume shift to competitors like HCA starts within 30 days. That 30-day window is when the competitor's earnings revisions haven't updated yet. Free to try. (a private equity firm bought your local hospital. borrowed $500 million in the hospital's name. fired 12% of the nurses. emergency room deaths rose 13%. then they paid themselves dividends. nobody went to prison. they're currently buying another hospital.)

Airbnb founder Brian Chesky on how to design an amazing user experience “How do you make something for a million people? I don’t know where to start. But if you pick one person, study them, and take their journey, you can actually build something really personal. You can design something and keep iterating until they love it. Don’t stop improving it until that person loves it, and you’re not allowed to move to the second person until the first person loves it. Then you get the second person and keep iterating until they love it. And so on.” As Brian argues, designing the perfect experience for one person is a much easier place to start than trying to design something for a million people. You can figure out how to scale it later. “If you can design something really amazing using the hand-crafted part of your brain, then you can reverse-engineer how to industrialize this millions of times over. And what happens is people love your product and they tell everyone else about your product.” When people truly love your service, they become your marketing department. But counterintuitively, the biggest and best products seem to mostly get started by solving a very specific problem for a very specific user. Video source: @StanfordGSB (2023)

The devils have been revealed and yet we continue to empower them. Yet they take on the cloak of righteousness to cover their self interests. How do we right our ship?

🚨 INTERNET SHOCKED AS RUSSELL CROWE TURNS INTO A WATCH VLOGGER — FLEXES SAUDI DESERT SAND TIMEPIECE Yes… that Russell Crowe. The Oscar winning Gladiator just casually hopped on camera breaking down his personal collection from Italian microbrand Giuliano Mazzuoli - explaining rally car inspired dials, air pressure gauge designs, and even a crown shaped like a gear stick. Very niche. Very watch nerd coded. Then he drops the bomb: A commissioned, never-released piece with a case made from compressed sand taken from the Empty Quarter in Saudi Arabia. Not a retail drop. Not available to the public. He even admits he had to convince the designer to sell it to him. Hollywood A-lister… casually geeking out over motorsport engineering… and flexing a desert sand one-off nobody else can buy. Since when is Russell Crowe a watch guy, and how much do you think that piece would actually go for at auction?
