I commend Anthropic on their philanthropic commitments in lieu of a founder equity IPO grant. It is an extraordinary gift - but also understand concerns about foundation wealth concentration. Like Elon - I hope a meaningful portion of AI’s wealth is a direct dividend. 🇺🇸🤍🚀@InvestAmerica24 @TrumpAccounts

RuneScape Reignited, a new game mode designed for both old and seasoned players to start fresh, has been canceled less than two weeks after it was first announced. bit.ly/3WsZgJy

The bond market is screaming at us to stop the deficit spending
For almost two decades, America enjoyed a moat that very few countries in the world can afford, which was cheap cost of capital
We should have taken these dollars and built out infrastructure like never before. Bridges, tunnels, roads, factories and everything in between
Instead, we funded social services for boomers who already had too much, pushed on ESG and wokeness to folks who had too little, and awarded massive foreign aid to organizations who never deserved it
Probably one of the worst allocations of capital in history on a national scale. History will not look back kindly at us

The 5-year Treasury yield is over 5%. The 2-year will soon follow. Next year the entire yield curve will have a 5% handle or higher. At 5% the annual interest cost of our $40 trillion national debt will be $2 trillion, 35% of tax revenue and a larger expense than Social Security.

Imagine the next Halo game opens exactly where Halo 3 ended.
Master Chief floats through space.
“Wake me… when you need me.”
Cut to black.
Then we see Cortana’s memories....Halo 4. Halo 5. Infinite. Everything that came after Halo 3… distorted, fragmented, escalating into a horrifying dream.
Suddenly...
Cortana wakes.
She looks around.
Silence.
None of it happened.
It was all just a nightmare buried inside her neural matrix… the way a human mind can turn its fears into dreams.
Then we hear:
“Chief… I need you.”
And the pod opens.
HALO IS BACK.

> Buying a meal deal
> Scan at self service checkout
> Wait for staff to authorise that I'm over 16y old because it includes a coffee
> Press pay with card, on the card-only checkout machine
> Press no on loyalty card
> Press no on paying for bags
> Press no on rounding up for charity
> Tap card, declined, need to insert and enter pin
> Press no to wanting a receipt
The minor frictions to doing boring everyday tasks like this are endless.

I’m sorry but America did not spend 250 years turning “what’s over there?” into the most powerful civilization on earth just to finally arrive at the most consequential technological frontier in generations and decide actually we’re scared of frontiers now. We ARE the fucking frontier. We cross oceans. We build railroads across continents. We split atoms. We put men on the moon. We turn sand into computers and computers into a global nervous system.
Of COURSE AI is terrifying. The frontier is SUPPOSED to scare the shit out of you. That’s how you know you have, in fact, located the fucking frontier.
The answer is not recklessness, but it sure as fuck isn’t paralysis either. America’s comparative advantage is an unusually high national tolerance for ambitious weirdos staring at impossible things and saying “Yeah... I think I can build it.” That trait is rarer than oil, harder to manufacture than semiconductors, and responsible for a frankly preposterous amount of the modern world.
And you absolutely will not fucking regulate it out of us.

If businesses only have to pay taxes on profit, not revenue, then families should only have to pay taxes after all their bills have been paid.

The father of seven has not finished a thought in four years. he is just moving. feeding. driving. wiping. his brain is soup and his back is finished and he has no opinions about civilization he is too tired for opinions. and meanwhile civilization is growing out of him like he is dirt and he doesnt even notice because there is milk on the floor again. the childfree man has read eleven books this year about the decline of the west and he is the decline and the books are the evidence and he will understand this at fifty eight in a room that is very clean and very quiet

“Norway didn’t qualify for the World Cup for 28 years?"
Haaland: "I’m 25, so it’s not my fault.”
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

Trump and infantino understand the world cup is a TV show pretending to be a sporting competition. Letting America's best player back on the pitch in a stunning decision is going to increase ratings in the world's most important market. This is how you really grow the game.
