@TheRickWilson He offered a trip to Cancun for Greenland. Too soon Ted?

How about your wife, Ted? Is she for sale?

@elonmusk Firing people and cutting programs authorized by Congress is not about fraud, it’s simple politics and questionable if legal.

More of your tax dollars saved

@BleacherReport @ChrisBHaynes Not much to negotiate if they are giving him a Max contract. It’s all laid out in the CBA. He can hire a lawyer to negotiate the details and save $20-30 million in commissions. (I’m not sure the % paid on $300 million deal). Smart!

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has parted ways with his representation and will serve as his own agent, per @ChrisBHaynes

@elonmusk Wow, that sounds like a lot, how much have Space X and Tesla taken in government subsidies and contracts. Must be much less, right? Wait , no? 🤔

Interesting

@elonmusk Any reason you are using 20 year old kids not trained auditors?

And it will improve rapidly over time

@MartyK70998 @ZeroDarkTonyOG Topanga Canyon is burning today. So, not outside the fire zone.

@T_Ron21577 Hmm, Topanga is burning right now. Did all the rich people leave real quick? Truthfully, hate to ruin your narrative, but Topanga is much more artsy, less big houses than either the Palisades or Malibu. You really have no idea what you are talking about.

just saw a burn map. amazing that topanga canyon is clear and it’s all in the middle of it all. follow the REAL money

@georgielovesgod @natesiggard Last I heard Inn of the Seventh Ray has survived— at least so far.

@natesiggard Anyone know if the fire has reached inn of the seventh Ray and Old Topanga?

Topanga Canyon at 7:23am this morning. Still trying to figure out how far up the canyon the fire has gotten today. No official word from authorities. (not my video)

@bigsis35 @CitizenKinsley @EricAbbenante No idea. I’m watching local news, scanning this site and Bluesky, and using the Watch Duty app.

Extraordinary scenes from the LA wildfires as Anderson Cooper reports on frequent explosions or 'booms off in the distance': "The flames jumped from the house onto the car. There was a small explosion as the gas canister blew. You can hear these explosions: Just heard an explosion, steady booms off in the distance, often uncomfortably close." Is Anderson Cooper reporting from a war torn country or a Democrat run city? Hard to tell these days.

@RealRussBaker I remember during the Wolsey fire the Fire department said if that fire got into Topanga canyon they would not be able to protect the area. Too many small streets and not enough brush clearance for it to be safe for firefighters. I’m afraid that may be the case to some degree.

Friend in Topanga Canyon (LA) said they got almost no help as fire sweeps through. Finally some crews. Asking everyone to ask governor for help.

@JeanneJfevents @paulwesley @LindseyPHorvath Topanga Canyon is right next to Pacific Palisades. It is where crisis is. 🤦‍♂️

@paulwesley @LindseyPHorvath Are you asking for public support for an area where you live? There's a crisis in California. It seems an odd use of your fame.

@CitizenKinsley @EricAbbenante The fire is in Topanga Canyon now, heading towards old Topanga. This is going to be catastrophic.

@EricAbbenante it’s a good thing the winds are SouthWest … Topanga Canyon hasn’t burned in years and would go up in a heartbeat ! there are horses, elderly, many who would need help … 😢

@MokeMaybe @Altimor Wow, this guy posts info based on data and you think he’s just hyping Apple? Who is the cultist now?

@Altimor Imagine being such a retarded apple iDiot that you actually use apple maps and think it's in any way better than Google or Waze. You iPhone dummies will use any useless product with an apple logo on it. Enjoy getting lost losers, you all deserve it.

When I was at Uber, we ran the numbers on the maps app offering the shortest routes We prob had the biggest dataset with this info: we had millions of trips where we knew both which app was used and how long they took Now this may be shocking, but the ranking was: 1. Best: Apple Maps 2. Second: Google Maps 3. Worst: Waze (by far) The research also included which apps people *thought* was worse, and the order came in the exact opposite order. We understood why Apple Maps got a bad rap given how bad it was at launch — it rapidly got better, but the brand stuck. Waze was more of a mystery, and we ended up realizing that people thought its routes were best because it was exposing them to so much info on traffic, construction, police presence etc… Everyone thinks they want a minimalist UI, but in practice, when they see all this info, they subconsciously conclude “wow, these guys really have their shit together” — even when the routes were actually the worst ones. (This research was done maybe 8y ago, wouldn’t be surprised if these rankings were different today.)

@loveofsports24 @discussbaseball Yea, but do they have anyone better? Angles never prioritize pitching. When was the last time they had a decent rotation?

@sbk2010 @discussbaseball Steve, Griff was far from a competent pitcher for the halos, in fact, he was a dumpster fire on the mound.

Well, so much for a quiet start to the offseason. The Angels have acquired Jorge Soler! In 2024, Soler was solid, with 21 HR, 121 OPS+, 11.8 BB%, 75.4 mph avg bat speed. Perry Minasian was IMPATIENT!

@GoodVibePolitik If you are ok with those “martyrs” attacking Israel you should be ok when Israel fires back and makes the martyrs.

May Allah protect those in Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Yemen, Syria and beyond as they continue their struggle against western imperialism and Zionist aggression. Glory to the martyrs.

@zei_squirrel Iran attacked Israel for something that happened in Syria- while they were arming their proxies to attack Israel. If that makes it justified- Israel should have bombed Iran the day Hamas or Hezbollah fired a single missile at them.

calling Israel's attack on Iran "retaliatory" and framing it as justified while Iran's actually retaliatory strikes against Israel were framed as pure evil irrational aggression, perfectly encapsulates the genocidal depravity of the entire Western media and political class

@iamharaldur You mean Iran’s firing ballistic missiles at Irael wasn’t an escalation but this is?

@elonmusk Are you in favor of getting rid of the electoral college? Isn’t that the most direct “will of the people” in the Presidential vote? Why don’t you publicly support abolishing the electoral college then?

Then why do “Democrats” oppose the will of the people?

Trump 10 minutes into his Arnold Palmer story: But when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there. They said, oh my God. That's unbelievable.
