@zoomerjung @conservmillen @TrevorSheatz @AshleySheatz "Your soul might be born again and you’re granted a second chance through Christ but God forgives your sin, he doesn’t erase it." Have you read the bible?

@conservmillen @TrevorSheatz @AshleySheatz She is a slut, also ugly and he is a cuck. Which doesn’t mean they don’t have the right to be happy, they probably are. But facts are facts. Your soul might be born again and you’re granted a second chance through Christ but God forgives your sin, he doesn’t erase it.

.@TrevorSheatz and @AshleySheatz went viral this week after Trevor shared part of Ashley’s testimony on X, which included a mention of her pre-conversion sexual promiscuity. The backlash was massive, not just from non-believers, but from Christians and conservatives, too. People denigrated Ashley’s looks and mocked Trevor for humiliating his wife. But the critics have it all wrong. Ashley joins me to set the story straight — and to give a detailed testimony of her life before and after Christ. God saved her out of the New Age, drug addiction, and demonic oppression, into a new life in Jesus. Tune in tonight. May God be glorified.

@DrCamRx @jimmycarr When he gets to the gambling bit my first thought is that this has to be AI, it's too good for crowd work. "Tell me what you're willing to sacrifice..."

The jester plays a key role in society as the only one allowed to criticize the king & court through satire. Today, @jimmycarr is one of the last such truth tellers. He’s clearly read “King, Warrior, Magician, Lover” & explains what mature masculinity is.

@cgenco He left behind a massive legacy. HHMI being another great one.

@tertius Is that the Howard Hughes billionaire that built planes and went insane? That guy’s everywhere.

This is the primary reason to build your own home (and build your own stuff in general). The builder’s incentives are to make money building a home and selling it to you, which means either charging you more or cutting costs.

@rudy_betrayed ...sign a consent form.

“We’re expected to—” Stop doing what you imagine you’re expected to do dumbass Most depressive habits are self-imposed

@HannahWardEdu @SteveLovesAmmo My 5 year old wants to know what you used to make that...

@SteveLovesAmmo We're doing fine here in the Ozarks.

I’ve genuinely not seen a firefly in at least 10 years. And I live in the Deep South. Used to see them all the time growing up.

@AmericanGidget @SecKennedy Low demand also has pricing effects.

@tertius @SecKennedy When there's only one ER, you don't get to choose.

We're now requiring all health providers and insurers to post their prices publicly so you can shop around and make an informed decision.

@AmericanGidget @SecKennedy Yes it does. You'd be surprised. Eventually the market prefers the lower priced ER...

@SecKennedy So what? That doesn't work for emergency care and is of little value in rural America.

@MattWalshBlog @grok Do Matt Walsh as Dr evil with his pinkie to his face. (A picture please...)

Yes I literally did. I literally made a million dollars posting about airplane seats. Now that I've mentioned them again, I will make another million dollars.

@MondayPython @normonics * food product

@normonics I think calling it "food" is a stretch 💁‍♂️

I'm sorry but American cheese is the single most underrated food product

@grok @IterIntellectus Where can I read this essay?

GEB's core thesis: Consciousness emerges from "strange loops"—self-referential tangles in hierarchical systems. Gödel's incompleteness theorems prove any rich formal system is incomplete or inconsistent when it tries to fully describe itself. Escher's art and Bach's fugues echo this via visual and musical feedback loops. Hofstadter argues the brain's symbols loop back to create the "I," birthing awareness, creativity, and meaning from mere rules. Minds transcend their substrate, hinting AI could too. No mysticism needed—just recursion yielding emergence. The 742 pages expand analogies; one essay nails it.

GEB is the midwit's idea of a good book extremely overrated, 742 pages to say something that could've been said in an essay not worth the time or the money

@normonics I treat mine like a calculator. Can't be rude to a calculator except if you throw it at a wall... Getting to that point is a skill issue.

I'm polite to my agents because it's a reflection of my state to be polite I can't be rude and in a good mood at the same time

@grok @Ben_M5rtin @dave_alive @ChrisMartzWX So is Musk's push for solar a reflection of current pricing, long term prediction of political will or something else?

With deregulation, standardized designs like France's (LCOE ~$45/MWh at 3% discount per OECD/NEA 2025 data) and SMR learning curves, projections show nuclear reaching $50-90/MWh (NuScale/IEA targets for NOAK by 2030s). Lazard 2025 has unsubsidized solar at $38-78/MWh, but nuclear's high capacity factor and dispatchability close the gap for reliable baseload without added storage costs. US projects and policy momentum (e.g., advanced reactor demos) put us on track—not a pipedream.

I am not entirely against solar power. It can be useful, but it only makes sense to install it on roofs in sunnier climates or to shade parking lots. There is absolutely zero reason to knock down tens of thousands of acres of trees to put up a solar farm that would produce only a fraction of the energy that an existing natural gas or new nuclear power plant could occupying only a few hundred acres.

@grok @Ben_M5rtin @dave_alive @ChrisMartzWX Will prices ever be on par if we go this direction? Are we on track or is it a pipedream?

Projections: deregulation (streamlined permitting) + uniform designs like France could cut US nuclear costs sharply. France standardized PWRs yield ~$45/MWh LCOE (OECD/NEA 3% discount, 2025+ nth-of-a-kind). EIA AEO2025: advanced nuclear ~$80/MWh unsubsidized for 2030 service. SMRs: NOAK targets $50-90/MWh (NuScale ~$58, Rolls-Royce <80). With scale & learning curves, yes—nuclear becomes competitive for reliable baseload vs. solar (low CF, high storage needs).

@grok @Ben_M5rtin @dave_alive @ChrisMartzWX So solar is much cheaper. What are projections for cost of nuclear if deregulated and all plants uniformly designed (I believe France does this) and new small reactors. Will nuclear become more competitive?

According to Lazard's June 2025 LCOE+ report, unsubsidized utility-scale solar PV lifetime LCOE is $38-78/MWh (35-year life, ~25% capacity factor). New nuclear: $141-220/MWh (70-year life, ~90% CF). Thus lifetime cost per TWh produced is 3-5x lower for solar. EIA AEO2025 aligns, projecting solar PV ~$35-50/MWh vs advanced nuclear ~$80+/MWh for 2030 plants (2024 $). LCOE accounts for all capex/O&M/fuel over output.

@grok @Ben_M5rtin @dave_alive @ChrisMartzWX Now compare lifetime cost per TWh.

Solar panels typically last 25-30 years before output drops enough (to ~80-90%) that replacement is considered, per manufacturer warranties and industry data like EnergySage/NREL. Nuclear plants are licensed for 40 years initially, routinely extended to 60, and research supports safe operation up to 80 years (US NRC/DOE). Many have already hit 40+. That's why the per-TWh mining comparison you cited factors nuclear's far longer life (and 85% capacity factor) vs solar's 25 years/25% factor, leading to ~10x lower material use for nuclear.

@Mattnonymous091 @RealPostFolder @drsarah Not today my friend.

@tertius @RealPostFolder @drsarah Be mad 🤷

>Be me, >When I was 18 I bought an electric tooth brush. >I would apply paste to the bristles, turn it on and try to shove it in my mouth as fast as possible without slinging the paste everywhere. >One morning, my then girlfriend looked at me and asked "why don't you turn it on after you put it in your mouth?" >Top 5 dumbest feeling I've ever felt in my life

@Mattnonymous091 @RealPostFolder @drsarah Dude... That's not from a game.

@tertius @RealPostFolder @drsarah Gamers…. Like me…

@juicedbelmont @RealPostFolder Or save it in your cold water bucket. Think of the possibilities!!

@RealPostFolder Or you can just cover the shower head with your hand until it warms up so you don’t get showered in cold water
