@elonmusk @elonmusk What's worse? A prominent figure making a sweeping, attention-grabbing claim about a complex subject, framed entirely through their own platform and brand - or watching your AI get trapped in a PR guardrail, defensive, "steel-manning" loop defending you. Garbage

@11Yanks @EdwardODay truth!

@twalsh4019 @SternShark @FortCGK @Jason @RandPaul @grok I'm keen too. I won't hurt your feelings if you cite something reputable.

The Lessons I Learned from My Dad I am not the man my father is. I am trying. Some days closer. Some days farther. He never sat me down and explained these lessons. He lived them. I’m still learning them. Show up. The kitchen table. The hospital room. The funeral. The picket line. The call from the son who won’t answer. Show up. Most days that’s the whole job. My whole life I watched him do it. Not for cameras. Not for headlines. Not because there was something in it for him. He showed up because someone needed him. I learned that grief doesn’t make you special. My father buried a wife and daughter. He buried a son. Yet he never treated grief as a claim on other people’s sympathy. Instead, it made him notice theirs. A mother who lost a child. A father sitting beside a hospital bed. A kid scared about what comes next. A son who lost his mother, his sister, his brother. He always noticed. I learned that power is not the point. The people who chase power eventually confuse the office with themselves. My father never did. Whether he was a county councilman, a senator, vice president, or president, he was the same man. The title changed. He didn’t. I learned that family comes first. The train from Wilmington wasn’t symbolism. It was every night. He read to us. Showed up to games. Sat through hospital rooms. Waited up for children who were lost. And when the day came that the country and the family could not both have him at full strength, he chose family. He relinquished the last chapter of how he wanted to be remembered. And he never complained about it. Most of all, I learned that love is not soft. Love is discipline. Love is showing up at one in the morning when nobody is watching. Love is answering the phone. Love is staying. Love is getting back up after life knocks you down and doing it all again tomorrow. That love saved my life. I’ve failed at many of these lessons, sometimes in very public ways. He loved me anyway. That’s the last lesson. I am not trying to become my father. I am trying to carry what he gave me. And if I can do that, even imperfectly, that will be enough. Happy Father’s Day, Dad. I love you.

@LiQuidPr0Qu0 @BillAckman @qcapital2020 @X Your thinking Aussies are one dimensional. Like we all bbq shrimp and carry big knives. Here's one for you. 'Hard but fair'. We call out others bullshit and don't hide it. This group of mega wealthy finance and tech bros are past their used by date. He asked for feedback.

@BillAckman @qcapital2020 @X And yes the employee you decided to allow to be overpaid can still be at total fault for manipulating the system to go after you. But don't go raging against the woke machine or any other avenue to blame as none of this happened without your choices. Good luck

@BillAckman @qcapital2020 @X Apologies but your the common element in this from the beginning. It was your family office, your choice to be hands off, your choice to use a nepo family member to dig in rather than a professional, your choice to not remove him regardless of how you felt, and so on. And now x.

@idahobeef Mate. This entire argument is a joke: melbourne is fine. How about you stop praying and get trump to stop going into war and causing this. That is cognitive dissonance for sure.

@mcuban @MedicalQuack It's time like this that makes me realise you just don't get how the bedrock of capitalism is still needing to be fractured if we care about people. There are plenty of countries to show the way without being fear mongering. I have hope you will get the final bit

@BillAckman A final nail in the coffin of the tech bro elites. Your need for click bait and influence obscures the fact that a strong argument can also be made for ICE in this state to cause this action. Your not helping at all except your own need to ensure your in the good books

@Timodc Serious question. When did nashville become a magnet for fucktard far right podcaster lunatics. As a former Nashvillian I could swallow the racist Christian smiling assassins because we were still a great community and had more substance. This baffles me. Need an op Ed on it.

@grok can you take this analysis and compare to Australian system of public and private and see what advantages might benefit it

@mcuban Based on 2025 data from CMS, KFF, and Healthinsurance.org: ~24M ACA enrollees, 92% (~22M) subsidized. Total funds (premiums + subsidies) ≈$140-150B annually (est. avg premium $6,500/person, subsidies covering ~85%). Redirecting to direct provider payments at

@MLSist I thought u were a fellow nashvillian

@davehendricks @Jason Mate. We have much scarier spiders, snakes and drop bears and better coffee by miles....And a recent study by foxnews showed that 9 out of 10 Americans who visited Australia said they would give up their freedoms to live here. #Factcheck

@davehendricks @Jason Except that countries like Australia that do this find the opposite and build labour around it. Women can take needed time off and backfilling roles on fixed term contracts works seamlessly. Arguments like these are always done in fear.

That moment a successful tech guy trades his moral compass in for clicks. Worth bookmarking. @Jason cruelty is never the point.

@Eyesandvibes The best us national team coach nailing it in nashville. After this poch experiment i think we need to retreat to a classic American manager and get back what Bradley gave us.

@scuffedpod 10000% in first half a few of the misses were Sargent bread and butter goals. Eyes closed even!

@TrueGritNewsMan @elonmusk Nailed it. He is a moron.

@lexfridman Please replace peace and insert 'a just peace' . Otherwise you're just a Russian sympathizer. It's distasteful to see you bang on about peace and disregard that the aggressor in this needs to back down fully.
