@paulg @garrytan This is the very essence of great writing.

I strive to make my writing unsummarizable, in the sense that it has so little fluff left in it that if you take any words out, as summaries by definition do, you lose a lot of interesting ideas.

@areshawns @TaoTeTrade I apologize. I don’t know you. You probably know better. And I’m honestly overstepping. I wish you all the best. (Do replace that font though, it’ll be one prompt 😂)

@tthom2193 @TaoTeTrade who is to say the good criticism went over my head? OP's take holds a few fallacies, which all conflate with what they were trying to convey. i'd rather not spend my time dissecting them. i love criticism; doesn't mean you'll get a response perhaps you're looking for from me.

after thinking on it I’d want to bootstrap anyways but being t10 percent is sick!!

@areshawns @TaoTeTrade No. That was attitude: you brushed off genuinely good criticism from someone in your space that you could have used. Called it a steelman. I get it, criticism is hard but I promise you it’s so valuable. You should ask for it.

you interpreted a sterile response as attitude which is your bias not mine lol. now i'll give ya some attitude; i couldn't give a single shit about using the "slop font" that every other website uses because i'm focused on far bigger problems. the moment relevant stable revenue hits my bank account, i'll go through a beautification pass. i'd hope you understand the importance of not dwelling on useless shit so early on.

@hthieblot “How can I brag about selling my company for $100M?” “I’ve got the perfect idea…”

Personally I bought nothing material and just invested most of it. My life didn’t change much.

You just sold your company for $ 100M. What’s the FIRST thing you buy?

@areshawns @TaoTeTrade Also… try not to have such an attitude when your website uses the exact same slop font as literally every other website produced by AI right now.

I can steelman any other app as well, especially the ones making hundreds of thousands in MRR, yet that doesn’t change their retention nor success. I appreciate your productive pessimism, but what I’m building does what existing successful apps do at a diabolically better scale, so I’m sure there’s an audience to be acquired that do want another app.

@areshawns @TaoTeTrade Damn you’re an asshole lol. The feedback you just got for free is worth more than that “10%” email you got that was almost assuredly written by AI, and you don’t just not take it seriously, you took offense. Ngmi.

@willwashburn @sflorimm OMG ITS STILL THERE

@sflorimm homestarrunner.com

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010. What’s the one website/app you still think about?

@willwashburn @sflorimm FUCK.

@davidzmorris Yes. Specifically marketing to investors pre-IPO. But driving general fear and bad sentiment in the process, which I really wish these companies would stop doing.

This is not a warning, it is marketing

It’s all talk. Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors - instant peace, the Strait of Hormuz can be opened, and gas drops $2 a gallon. Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.

@SteveLovesAmmo 1913 gave you the Federal Reserve Banking system. All other hells are made possible by it. Perpetual war, unchecked government power, inflation, etc... The income tax in the same year. It was 1913 my dog.

Can someone point me to exactly at what point in history everything started going to absolute shit?

@SteveLovesAmmo 1913

@thegarcia21 This is a 2 star review waiting to happen. Fuck these people.

These people man😂😂😂😂😂 Probably would hop on this when I first started my cleaning company 🧼 But now absolutely not worth the headache Kick rocks

@LegendaryEnergy @MattWalshBlog @NicAtNigh 🇮🇱

@MattWalshBlog @NicAtNigh 100%. It’s completely embarrassing but pretty much everything is with our party now and we’re supposed to just pretend it’s really cool when it isn’t. Within a year we went from winning culture, House, Presidency and Popular Vote to a clown show. It feels like a rug pull.

I’m actually pretty pissed at how badly they’ve bungled America 250. First they tried to invite Milli Vanilli and a bunch of other absurdly washed up geriatric one hit wonders. Then when that didn’t work they decided to convert the event into a Trump rally where Trump will talk about himself for 90 minutes. This should have been a massive, raucous celebration of the country and its 250 year history. Now it will be a political rally identical to the ten million other ones we’ve already seen.

@tjparker It’s very annoying. And all the suggestions here are missing the point. Claude Code has access to my local environment from my phone if I start the session there. Why not co work?

Very strange I can’t pick up a Claude cowork chat on my phone

@Suhail @henrytdowling This is actually the answer. Many people are feeling existential dread. But the tools we are creating open up entire worlds of possibility. There is more work to do now than ever. Not the opposite.

@henrytdowling Math is now easy. Move up the frontier. Solve the common cold. Improve our ability to store energy. Give humans superhuman eyesight. The possibilities are endless.

The answer is to work on harder, more complex things. We must sharpen our skills for the next frontier.

This guy has been a good psychopath for 4 years now. Like I was saying in the podcast last Saturday, the reason Appalachia enjoys a violent crime rate of 1 in 755, whereas in other places you see violent crime at 1 in 100 (or God forbid worse) is because here everyone is armed. In Appalachia, a violent attack on a little old grandma by a dude built like a freight train, the little old grandma is capable of casually walking away with her head held high and only being out of pocket $6 for a box of .410 shells. As Heinlein tells us, “An armed society is a polite society.” A high trust society doesn’t happen by chance, they’re created with purpose. They’re the natural byproduct of when evil fears good. Of when violent and greedy men fear their intended victims. I do find it fascinating how quickly these stories are pushed out of the news cycle and forgotten though. The great object is that everyone be armed.

@sueispissed @mtgreenee We could put all the boomers in a group home where they just vote on their HOA stuff? It’s a start 😂

@mtgreenee You Congress can’t do anything about it WTF are WE supposed to do about it. The election interference for the Nov election has already begun. What would you have us do???

We just said goodbye to our good friends Thomas and Carolyn Massie. The civil war in the Republican Party is successfully gutting the true America Firsters, like myself, Thomas and others. But I don’t think most Americans realize the extent of what’s happening, how bad it is, and what it’s going to produce. After taking the hard principled stand against war with Iran in June 2025 and releasing the Epstein files, the neocon controlled Republican establishment now backed by the President set out to destroy us. Thomas and I took two different routes but ended up in the same place, which delivered a message to our colleagues to never go against the President even on issues he himself promised to do and at the same time delivered the louder stronger message to the American people that no matter what they say on tv, rally stages, committee hearings, campaign ads, or stump speeches, Republicans and Trump have overwhelmingly rejected America First and will do anything possible to cut the head off of anyone who tries to fly its banner. The extent and extremes to which they have gone should shock everyone. For me, I was Trump’s loudest champion for years supporting him when no one else would, voting with him 98% of the time, and he called me a traitor for releasing the Epstein files, refusing to support war with Iran, and fighting against the White House’s bad policies that only serve their donors like a 10 year moratorium on state rights to regulate and make laws on AI and data centers. And yet my perfect conservative voting record, legislative accomplishments like the House passing my articles of impeachment of Biden’s DHS Secretary that oversaw the invasion of our country, passing my bill making it a felony to trans children under 18, my work as DOGE Chair defunding waste fraud and abuse and so much more, suddenly meant nothing to low educated Republicans that are easily manipulated by bot armies and bought and paid for social media influencers that spread absurd lies about me. After supporting the Republican Party by paying all of my dues to the NRCC every Congress, endorsing and campaigning for Republican candidates, and spending millions and traveling the country to get Trump elected, to be called a traitor and not a single Republican (even the ones I helped get elected like JD Vance and others) not to utter a word of public support for me, it became abundantly clear that the Republican Party is something I can no longer support and want nothing to do with. None of my policy views have changed, but everything changed about the man I supported to be president and the party I supported to gain the majority. They are all under full capture and control. And if you refuse to be captured and controlled with them, then their captors will set out to kill you, and the party sits in silence while it happens. What they just did to Thomas Massie is unforgivable. I saw it all coming early, had just watched my friend Charlie Kirk assassinated, and knew they were going to do all of it and probably worse to me too, so I refused to allow it to happen to me, my family, and my district, so I resigned. But Thomas stayed in the fight and they slaughtered him with tens of millions of foreign donor dollars that fueled lies, slander, character assassination, and even broke their own laws to do it. They told lies to Kentucky’s 4th district that Massie had turned into a liberal Democrat, voting for Democrat policies, and even made vicious lying illegal AI ads showing him in a sexual relationship with AOC and Ilhan Omar. Even though ALL of it was horrific lies proven wrong with his own 14 year impeccable America First liberty driven voting record, naive older voters in his district were easily fooled by the AIPAC and Israel funded campaign lies, and voted for a new candidate who refused every single debate with Thomas Massie and has no voting record to prove what he stands for at all. The capture is complete. What will you do about it?
