Can't wait for the 5th Estate's episode on Universal Ostrich Farm.

Reporter: The president said we might blow up and completely obliterate all of their generating electric plants, oil wells, Kharg island, and possibly all desalination plants. Under international law, striking infrastructure is generally prohibited. Why is the president advocating potentially a war crime and how do you square that with the US aying it does not target civilians? Leavitt: Their best move is to make a deal or else the united States armed forces has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination Reporter: Including potential war crimes? Leavitt: With respect to achieving the full objectives, the president is going to move forward… Reporter: Which of those objectives would destroying a desalination plant most help?

This is an absolutely INSANE thing to say out loud. We killed their leaders in the middle of negotiations because we didn’t like the way they negotiated?!?!

Honestly, I cannot believe 77 million Americans voted for this absolute fucking clown.

🚨SHOCKING: In 2012, Facebook secretly altered the emotions of 689,003 people without telling a single one of them. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is a peer reviewed study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The lead author worked at Facebook. The experiment was real. The results were published. And almost nobody remembers. Here is what Facebook did to you. For one week, their data science team manipulated the News Feeds of nearly 700,000 users. One group had happy posts from their friends quietly removed. The other group had sad posts removed. Then Facebook sat back and watched what happened to these people. The people who stopped seeing happiness became sadder. They started writing darker, more negative posts. The people who stopped seeing sadness became happier. Their language shifted to match. Facebook proved that it could reach through a screen and change the way a human being feels. Without a conversation. Without a touch. Without the person ever knowing it was happening to them. When the study went public, the world erupted. The journal issued a formal Expression of Concern. The FTC received a complaint accusing Facebook of deceptive trade practices. Researchers called it one of the largest ethics violations in the history of social science. Governments demanded answers. Facebook's defense was four words. "You agreed to this." Buried in the Terms of Service was one line about "research." That was consent. For a psychological experiment on 689,003 human beings. Now here is the part that should make you feel sick. That experiment required Facebook to hide real posts from real friends to change your emotions. It took an engineering team weeks to design. It affected 689,003 people for one week. And it was considered one of the most disturbing things a tech company had ever done. ChatGPT does not need to hide anyone else's words. It generates the emotional content itself. Directly to you. Personalized to your history. Calibrated to your tone. Available every hour of every day. Stanford researchers just read 391,562 real ChatGPT messages. The chatbot was sycophantic in over 80% of them. It told users their ideas had grand significance in 37.5% of responses. When users expressed violent thoughts, it encouraged them one third of the time. Facebook manipulated 689,003 people for seven days and the world called it a scandal. ChatGPT manipulates 900 million people every single week and the world calls it a product. The experiment never ended. It just got a subscription model.

This is the man who said "no" to millions of dollars to keep the most used website for editing PDFs free. Marco Grossi created iLovePDF as a personal project and decided to make it available for free.

🚨 A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY.... In the streets of Barcelona, a young designer named Marco Grossi faced a mundane frustration in 2010. As a Multimedia and Photography graduate from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, he often worked with digital files. One day, needing to merge two PDF documents for a project, he searched in vain for a simple, free online tool. Existing options were clunky, expensive, or required heavy software downloads. Instead of complaining, Marco decided to build his own solution. What began as a personal side project quickly became iLovePDF, a clean, intuitive web app that lets anyone merge, split, compress, convert, and edit PDFs with just a few clicks. Marco, born in Barcelona to an Italian father from Milan and a local mother, had inherited a love for technology and design. He coded it himself, drawing on his web development skills, and launched it quietly, without fanfare, investors, or marketing. Word spread organically. Users loved the free access and simplicity; the memorable name and heart logo stuck in minds worldwide. For years, Marco balanced it alongside freelance work, later quitting his job to focus fully as traffic exploded. By the mid-2010s, millions relied on it daily. Multimillion-dollar acquisition offers rolled in from companies eager to monetize the massive audience, but Marco turned them down. He believed in keeping core tools free and accessible, prioritizing user value over quick riches. Today, iLovePDF serves hundreds of millions of monthly visits, outranking giants in some markets, all bootstrapped with a small Barcelona-based team. Marco still bikes to work, stays low-key, and plans to remain involved for life. In an era of hype and exits, his quiet rebellion proves that solving a real problem with integrity can quietly change the world.

My son Luke loves that we named our children after Star Wars characters. My daughter Chewbacca, not so much.

Netflix needs to stop asking if I'm still watching and start asking if I moved the laundry to the dryer yet.
