Imagine if a President said this nowadays…

Heaven ushered in a hero of the faith last night as my Dad was welcomed home! Many will say sorry for your loss but the truth is he’s not lost, we know exactly where he is. He’s home. Forever! I asked him last week what he looked forward to most about Heaven, and he simply said, “Jesus.” He couldn’t wait to see Jesus face to face. Praise God that his wait is over. Death has been swallowed up in victory. He’s healed and whole now. So we don’t mourn as those with no hope. See you soon Dad!

Hey @grok, list all the Bible verses that support the Pope having any spiritual authority. If there are none, say none.

@mcuban I like the idea conceptually. The 30K probably isn’t enough. Major surgeries can result in 100s of 1000s. I had 600K in 2025.

What if there was a bank account available, that required you to deposit monthly, what you would have paid an insurance company in premiums, for an ACA silver plan. So for a family of 5 about $2100. The amount would then be used for Stop Loss Insurance set at $30k dollars. About $300. Another $200 would be used for local Direct Primary Care for your family The balance would be in YOUR bank account. Like an HSA, It could only be used for approved medical expenses. If you never have any medical expenses, you will get to keep the money plus checking act level interest, when you turn 65 If you have a medical event that is more than what you have saved, your bank will loan you the money you need to pay for it, up to the $30k stop loss trigger You would repay that amount using the monthly $1600 net deposit. Once the loan is paid off, the deposits start to accrue to you again. This is not insurance. It’s a specially designed bank account that gives you control, support, a doctor to work with and catastrophic financial protection. Lots of work and issues to be addressed. But I was curious what people think Let me know !

Computer science professor at a major state university just finished the worst faculty meeting in 32 years of academia Department head dropped the placement statistics like a bomb at 2:47 PM on a Wednesday 2023: 89% placement rate within 6 months of graduation 2024: 67% placement rate 2025: 34% placement rate 2026 projections: 12% placement rate 312 CS majors graduating this spring. Industry contacts saying maybe 40 will find work. The dean wants to know why enrollment is still climbing while job prospects crater Faculty sitting there like deer in headlights because what the fuck do you tell 19-year-olds taking out $40k per year in loans Half the curriculum is already obsolete. Teaching data structures while companies replace entire engineering teams with Claude and Cursor. One professor suggested pivoting to "AI collaboration skills" and got laughed out of the room Another said we should warn students. Department head said that would "damage program reputation and university revenue" So they keep taking tuition money from kids who will graduate into a wasteland Career services still posts those bullshit salary averages from 2022 when new grads were getting $140k offers Now the same companies are hiring 2 senior engineers with AI tools instead of 12 junior developers Every CS professor knows their students are walking into a meat grinder But the university needs those enrollment numbers to hit budget targets They're literally selling degrees that lead to DoorDash driving

Edward Snowden: "When you say I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide, that's no different than saying I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say, or freedom of the press because I have nothing to write."

LIGHTNING THROUGH A RAINBOW ⚡🌈 Off the Outer Banks, North Carolina, the ocean went steel-gray… and then one bolt drew a bright line straight through the color. This can happen when you’ve got rain still falling in one slice of sky (making the rainbow) while the thunderstorm’s electric charge is peaking behind it. The rainbow isn’t being “hit” like an object—it's just a perfect curtain of raindrops in the exact place the lightning happens to flash, so the bolt looks like it’s stitched into the arc. That bright, jagged core is the return stroke—the part that lights up the sky in a split second. And because the water horizon is open and flat, the whole scene reads extra sharp: bolt, band of color, and reflection all lined up.

Some biologists have discovered this strange tree in New Zealand. According to experts, it is heading to Isengard to destroy Saruman.

@AOC @likaluca I never thought I would agree with you on anything. But you got this one right.

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

Yesterday Mark Cuban reposted my work, DM'd me, and told me to keep telling my story. So here it is. I'm a Master Electrician. IBEW Local 369. 15 years pulling wire in Kentucky. Zero coding background. I didn't go to Stanford. I went to trade school. Every week I'd show up to a home where someone just bought a Tesla or a Rivian. And every time, someone had already told them they needed a $3,000-$5,000 panel upgrade to install a charger. 70% of the time? They didn't need it. The math is in the NEC — Section 220.82. Load calculations. But nobody was doing them for homeowners. Electricians upsell. Dealers don't know. And the homeowner just pays. I got angry enough to build something about it. I found @claudeai. No coding experience. I just started talking to it like I'd explain a job to an apprentice. "Here's how load calcs work. Here's the NEC code. Now help me build a tool that does this." 6 months later — @ChargeRight is live. Real software. Stripe payments. PDF reports. NEC 220.82 calculations automated. $12.99 instead of a $500 truck roll. I'm still pulling wire. I still take service calls. I wake up at 5:05 AM for work. But something shifted. Yesterday @vivilinsv published my story as Claude Builder Spotlight #1. Mark Cuban saw it. The Claude community showed up. And for the first time, I felt like this thing I built in my kitchen might actually matter. I'm not a tech founder. I'm a dad who wants to coach little league and be home for dinner. I just happened to build something that helps people. If you're in the trades and thinking about using AI — do it. The barrier isn't technical skill. It's believing you're allowed to try. EVchargeright.com

Whoever said “money can’t buy happiness” really knew what they were talking about 😔

@BillClinton You did so you didn’t go to jail for contempt!

My statement on today’s deposition.

🚨 LMFAO! SEN. JOHN KENNEDY: "Someone told me a joke today. They said, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez announced today categorically that she is not a moron. She went on to say she hasn't even been to Utah, much less embraced their religion!" "Our plan: Operation Let Her Speak." 😭😂

Joe Rogan: "Find the clip where Hillary is more MAGA than Trump."

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Chuck Schumer is going viral for demanding ID CHECKS to prevent fraud in the late 1990s "Everywhere people go, they're asked for Social Security or driver's license!" 🤯 "This is anti-fraud!" Now? "ID is Jim Crow 2.0" You're a CLOWN, CHUCK! PASS VOTER ID NOW.
