Random Budget Thoughts:
US debt: $36T. Cap spending at $4.7T, raise revenue to $5.5T? Debt grows $350B/yr—forever. Cut to $4.2T, it’s gone in 21 yrs. Trimming edges won’t fix it; we need big cuts or revenue jumps to slay this monster.
Elon's calling Flight 15 the big milestone: catch the ship with the tower. If they pull that off, Starship stops being impressive flights and starts being a reusable system. That's the leap.
I've put 90k+ miles on my Cybertruck, and dead zones are the one thing FSD can't fix. Starlink buying nationwide low-band spectrum to become a real US mobile carrier might. Can’t wait for Starlink mobile for everyone.
Since tracking started last November, FSD has driven 34,658 of my 37,226 miles. That's 93.1%. Longest streak so far is 1,150 miles, and I'm on a 32-day run. It stopped being a feature for me a long time ago.

Every time Bernie Sanders and others on the left hold Elon up as the face of everything wrong with billionaires, I think about the people who work for him. About 158,500 people draw a paycheck directly from one of Elon's companies today, and once you count the suppliers who make their parts and the local businesses where those workers spend their wages, I estimate those companies will support roughly 870,000 jobs by the end of this year and about 1.4 million by 2031 in my base case. Those are real families in Texas, Nevada, California, New York, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida and Louisiana, and at Tesla and SpaceX sites in nearly every other state. Beyond our borders there are tens of thousands more at Tesla's plants in Shanghai and Berlin, and at Tesla and Starlink outposts throughout the world. I went through the filings and state records to count them, and the full breakdown is in the article linked below xitter.gq/TeslaLarry/statu…

Crew-13 just cleared the pad. Three SpaceX launches on the board today, and I’m still getting used to how normal that sounds.
Handed Grok Bot an ugly chore on my X account: scan ~2,300 follows for accounts silent 3+ years, then unfollow the dead weight after I approved the list. ~895 gone. Hours of clicking I was never going to do myself. That’s the bar for useful SI for me — not a demo, a finished job.

This isn’t just bad behavior, it’s legitimately a bad human being who has no regard for any other person around them. Any sense of kindness or caring is completely conditional on their own perceived beliefs. Disgusting!
What a well behaved dog. Looks like that human could use some obedience training though 🤷
Don't you just love traveling to Philly to help complete strangers, rescuing their cat from a tree for FREE, only for their neighbor to be infected with Elon Derangement Syndrome and trying to spread their germs 🤢
I'm glad that my @Tesla @cybertruck safely drives me from rescue to rescue on FSD and keeps a watchful eye when I'm rescuing someone's pet nearby 🫶
No! No no no… the left is opposed to AI in schools because it exposes their propaganda for indoctrination!

No experience is better than a Tesla experience. I’m having the Terrestrial Armor package installed on my Cybertruck and they provided me with a CyberBeast loaner. Paired it with my Tesla app and all of my features and preferences, including FSD are available. So incredible!
Could Google AI be any worse? This is from the Google App. @Grok are you familiar with the Ford Fathom?
I’ve seen others post when FSD does unexpected but awesome things. This time I experienced it when stopped at a stoplight, a semi approached and as it began the left turn, my @Cybertruck reversed to allow it room to make its turn.
Instabuy! @gadgetman @wmorrill3 @aelluswamy @ray4tesla @steven_murrow @SawyerMerritt @elonmusk SpeedBoost for @cybertruck
Instead of politicians demonizing @elonmusk for being the first trillionaire, we the people should be focused on restricting said politicians from continuing to add to our debt which is 40x that worth and growing!

I'm looking for help with a project that is currently one of a kind. I'd like to power my wood chipper with an electric motor and batteries instead of the existing diesel Cummins 4bt. It's a Bandit 1590XP chipper, and I can certainly take care of any custom fabrication and assembly, I'm just not as well versed with all of the electric motor/controller/battery components.
My company, Tesla Tree Service, uses battery electric chainsaws, and pruners. We have North America's first all-battery-electric aerial lift, and it's towed (and charged) by our Tesla Cybertruck. A battery electric chipper would be a perfect fit, and couldn't come at a better time - right now - as we're plagued with constant issues with this diesel motor.
If you're interested, please let me know ASAP 🫶
Thanks, and have a great day!

Meet Booters! 😻 I promise you she's a sweetheart and just has a crazy evil looking face, but means no harm 😈😹🫶
She was today's 2nd rescue. Booters snuck outside and found herself stuck in a tree in her new backyard. Normally, strangers can't get close, but I think she has a thing for a certain cat-in-a-tree rescuer 😽. She was ready to be rescued, and even let me pet her again afterwards 🐈⬛😻
Cat-in-a-tree rescues are always FREE with Tesla Tree Service @TeslaTreeSteven
