May the fourth be with you

This made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂

Might try running a marathon now that I know it can be done in less than two hours

I had a great chat with a friend of mine, a middle-aged gay man who left Seattle after the 2020 riots made the city he called home for thirty years “unlivable.” He’s traditionally voted Democrat but asks me for my opinions sometimes. We were talking about taxes and he shared “I wish they’d tax the rich and spend it on social programs instead of war.” I asked him “what percentage of federal income tax comes from the top 1%?” “I don’t know. Maybe 10%,” he said. I told him it was 40%, and that the 1% paid more than the bottom 90% of taxpayers combined. He was shocked. And we both agreed the tax code should be simple and transparent. And then I asked him what portion of the federal budget is spent on war versus social programs and welfare. “50% for the Pentagon and 10% for welfare programs.” I told him it was basically reversed and that social entitlements and welfare spending was actually more than 60%. Again, he was shocked. The resentment and envy machine that drives the political left’s slogans thrives on people simply not knowing.

@typesfast @CBP @typesfast for all failure reasons? Some seem to be on them... ENTRY SUMMARY IS IN FINAL LIQUIDATION STATUS STATEMENT PROCESSING NOT COMPLETE ENTRY SUMMARY IS IN TRADE CONTROL

@typesfast seems like BS for the @CBP to not publicly announce that before the system went live.

Apple wouldn’t be Apple without Steve Jobs Apple wouldn’t be on top without @tim_cook

@elonmusk Give me a $50 plan please

Hey @grok, in the Imagine files list, can we get multi-select + bulk delete? Having to tap and confirm every single one is super tedious, especially with long histories. Also, the list doesn't scroll all the way back. Thanks!"

This astronaut extraction is painful to watch I’m pretty sure @elonmusk would’ve had them back in Houston by now!

"Ramble On" is 56 years old and Robert Plant just walked onto The Late Show and made it sound like he wrote it this morning.

So what are the chances the only people alive tomorrow are those in the space station and in the Artemis capsule? 💣 💥🌎🤔😳

The sun was free. They sold you SPF 50 and a vitamin D deficiency. Sleep was free. They sold you an app, a pill, and a wearable that tells you your sleep was bad. Walking was free. They sold you a treadmill, a fitness tracker, and a £180 pair of trainers. Fasting was free. They sold you meal replacement shakes and the anxiety that skipping breakfast would wreck your metabolism. Cold water was free. They sold you a £3,000 plunge barrel and a podcast episode about it. Silence was free. They sold you a meditation app with a premium tier. Animal fat was cheap. They sold you seed oils, then supplements to replace what the animal fat contained. Tallow was cheap. They sold you a seventeen-step skincare routine and a clinical trial proving your face needs ceramides. Meat was cheap. They are currently selling you the idea that you shouldn't eat it. The 20th century removed access to everything the body needs to function. The 21st century is selling it back, one subscription at a time. Your great-grandmother had none of the products. She had all of the things.

Truly blown away by a new AI image model launching this week ✨ Finally, you can generate photos that actually look like you! It's so much better than everything I've tried - from LoRAs to NB Pro. Onboarding some early testers. DM or comment if you want access 👀

I call this series just when you thought you’d make it out on time…
