REPORTER: I just want to make sure I understand. You're alleging that the Southern Poverty Law Center was paying the leaders of KKK and other groups? BLANCHE: I'm not alleging it. The grand jury returned an indictment that says that

This gives me new respect for Jussie Smollett. He bootstrapped his fake hate crime and paid for it himself rather than having SPLC organize and fund it for him. Support your local mom and pop hate crime hoax operations before they’re all put out of business by the big guys.

The SPLC is a hate group.

This is the most dystopian thing I’ve ever seen. Two gay guys have someone’s baby. He asks the baby who he wants. Baby says, “mama” He tells the baby “there is no mama.. you have dada or pop” Baby cries. There is no mama.

I wonder how the market would react if a “Satoshi 2.0” happened to have the access and benevolence to use quantum computing the moment it’s arrived and move satoshis coins to a quantum proof wallet and walk away. The first time it happen made legend. If it happened again, would people feel peace or distrust? Likely distrust simply because the coins moved even if they never moved again.

BIP-361 proposes freezing every bitcoin that doesn't migrate to a quantum-safe address within five years of activation. If you're incapacitated, in prison, or simply unaware of the deadline, your coins aren't stolen. They're frozen by consensus. The justification: 34% of all bitcoin have exposed public keys on-chain. If a quantum computer existed, those coins could be stolen and dumped. The proposal wants to invalidate legacy address types before that happens. The problem: Bitcoin has survived 80%+ drawdowns. The network would recover from a quantum-enabled theft. What it might not recover from is the precedent that consensus rules can freeze coins based on address type. If you can invalidate addresses for quantum protection, governments will point to that precedent to freeze "sanctioned" coins next. Two-thirds of the vulnerable supply comes from address reuse by a small number of large custodians. That's fixable today. No protocol change needed. Exchanges just stop reusing addresses. The Presidio Bitcoin report found that with 25% of block space dedicated to migration, 90% of bitcoin's value could move to quantum-safe addresses in four days. Post-quantum signature schemes already exist. Developer discussion on quantum has gone from 5% to 50% of the mailing list in two years. The work is happening. The right approach is voluntary migration, not protocol-level coercion with a deadline. Bitcoin's core value proposition is that no one can freeze your money. BIP-361 proposes doing exactly that.

@spectator Back not Black, if you can correct.

@michaeljknowles and @andrewklavan i’m embarrassed for you guys. What a damage to our Christian witness. As a Christian, I do not stand with you two on this and I think you need to repent and apologize.

@CrisReed An 8 year old did not make this 😅 beautifully written and simply laid out. Balanced graphics and appropriate use of negative space. You should get an A

My 8 year old walked up to his teacher last week and asked: "Can I do a presentation on bitcoin next week?" She said yes and he's presenting today. First couple slides below.

@TFTC21 Amazing, so then email addresses from old data leaks become worthless for people trying to access your email login?

Google now allows U.S. users to change their gmail username while keeping all emails, data, and account history. The old username becomes a permanent alias. One change per year, up to three total.

@TMZ 110% ON ALAN RITCHSON’S SIDE. That neighbor wanted the smoke, made him lay down his bike twice, of course he put him down and told him to stay down. Dude was being insane and kids are right there. Honestly impressed by Ritchson keep most of his cool.

😳 "Reacher" star Alan Ritchson's body cam footage of his bloody fight with his neighbor is released.

@CAgovernor @JenSiebelNewsom Will you and the rest of your staff be taking this as well?

Starting in the 2027-28 school year, California will offer a new personal finance course to high schoolers and require it for graduation beginning with the 2031 class. Every Californian should leave high school with the tools to manage money, avoid debt, and build wealth.

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. I’m completely devastated. Last Friday, I️ was notified that my monetization had been paused. I’ve shown up on this app for 5 years straight every single day to grow my account to what it is now. I️ never once paid for ads, never bought followers, never did anything but grow in an organic way. After appealing once, I️ was told my account was removed due to spam and inauthentic content. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I️ spend 6-12 hours on X daily in addition to my full time job; creating content, interacting and posting. I’ve adapted to new algorithms, posting strategies and even started a newsletter. I️’ve stopped using any other online platforms as I️ truly value the freedom and community X has brought me. Every single holiday, family event, vacation, wedding, birthday, you name it, I’ve been active on X during it. I’ve never once taken for granted the audience I’ve grown on this app and have thoroughly enjoyed the relationships I’ve built because of it. During this last period in which I️ was removed, I️ proposed to my girlfriend of 7 years. During this proposal trip, I️ stayed active online the entire time, which is nothing new. I have given up years of time to create something bigger with no regret. But now, after being denied and repeatedly called a spam account, with no way to plead my case, my last resort is to post here. Having to do this publicly feels so pathetic. It’s been almost a week and 2 appeals later, and I️ can’t get in touch with anyone who’s willing to help. I haven’t been given any clarification of where I️ went wrong or if there is a pathway to resolution. How can I️ dedicate myself so profoundly to something for so many years without being given any chance to make a simple change in my form of content? I’ve never had my account flagged or even been told of any misconduct in a 5 year period. The first I️ hear of an issue is ironically on pay day after spending hours upon hours working online during my vacation. I️ don’t expect everyone to be able to understand the severity of this situation because they will never see the time, sacrifices and work put into growing an account from 0 followers to over 260k. I️ can’t begin to explain the things I’ve sacrificed to get to the point of being a creator and I️ can’t help but feel like the platform has failed me. To you, this may just be a lighthearted meme account you follow. To me, this has altered my life. I️ was committing to go full time on X and even put in notice at my full time job. It is every content creators dream to be able to take this on full time, and to have it taken away from you almost as soon as you got it, feels gut wrenching. Over the last 2 years I’ve told everyone how important it is to get a blue checkmark, pay for premium and begin to monetize their account. I️ couldn’t have been louder about how much I️ love this platform and truly felt it was the only platform worth being on. The freedom I️ was given was amazing up until now. I️ truly never thought something like this would happen. All of this to say, I️ am not a spam account and I️ deserve reconciliation. I️f there is a specific thing I’ve done wrong, I️ will adapt my content to no longer do so. But a permanent suspension with a false reasoning will never be okay with me. I️ would hope that you are also not okay with taking away the livelihood of the creators on a platform that prides itself on free speech. @XCreators @premium @x @elonmusk @nikitabier

@nickshirleyy Did you call the police or someone for those kids that were left alone outside?

🚨 Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger... We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP. We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians. It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America's fraud crisis.

Imagining 2030: AI is going to do all our work! Actually 2030: Millennials and Gen X have now resumed all labor after AI nearly let the electrical grid fail from abusing too many mental health days. Boomers are still trying to unload their $30m homes they bought for a song and no one has heard from Gen Z - they were last seen rumbling “renegade” swinging their arms, while wandering homeless down the road.
