All hail King Donald. 👑 Tim Cook brought a tribute. Looks like even the tech industry is rolling itself back to the Middle Ages. #timapple
President Trump and Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, announced Wednesday that Apple would invest an additional $100 billion in the U.S., after Cook presented Trump with a 24-karat gold gift and lavished him with praise. Read more: nyti.ms/3J2VVue

Not an Apple fanboy, but how are Windows laptops still this bad? Using one feels like arm-wrestling your own (high-end) computer just to get work done, and losing. Meanwhile, MacBooks just… work. It’s honestly staggering.

Just finished the #Andor finale and I’m convinced: this is peak #StarWars. Gritty, grounded, brilliant. It won’t get better than this. But as they say, rebellions are build on hope!

Absolutely this. The EU is a powerful force — let’s leverage it together with our global trading partners. We must stand united against #TrumpTariffs. Only together can we make the #USA feel the full weight of their reckless actions.
I would like to speak to my fellow Europeans ↓

#Tesla stock is pulling off the most glorious nosedive since Icarus. Too bad I can’t tag Elon here — looks like X is following his lead and crash-landing right beside him. 🙏

Merz and Söder have previously misled, divided, and mocked the Greens. Now, they're boldly pushing for new debt to finance retirement benefits and cater to lobby interests instead of infrastructure. The Greens are right to stand their ground and reject this firmly! #germany #cdu
Germany's Greens may refuse to back Merz in threat to massive debt plans
Germany's Greens may refuse to back plans by likely next chancellor Friedrich Merz for a massive increase in state borrowing, with a party source on Monday warning "approval is becoming less likely with each passing day".

Looks like it's time for Elon's mom to step in again and cancel her son's latest episode of "Keyboard Warriors Gone Wild." First Zuck, now Putin — she's really got her hands full! #musk

It’s now undeniable: #Trump ’s actions have betrayed the West. Europe must recognize this new reality and take decisive, independent action — without delay. #traitortrump
Ukraine is not alone.
Germany together with our European allies stands united alongside #Ukraine - and against the Russian aggression. Ukraine can build on unwavering support from Germany, Europe and beyond. Their defence of democracy & their quest for peace & security is ours.

The Greens just offered to fix the infamous German debt brake with the old, more stable majority — the exact move the CDU blocked to torpedo the former left-leaning coalition. @gruene.de are the only party left with principals. Change my mind. #germany
Eine Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit wird benötigt : Grüne wollen Schuldenbremse mit alten Mehrheiten ändern
Die Grünen planen eine Korrektur der Schuldenbremse und Beschlüsse zu möglichen Sondervermögen. Für sie stelle es eine außen- und sicherheitspolitische Notwendigkeit dar.

I’m watching the #Inauguration, and I can’t help but feel a deep sense of sadness. The words feel hollow, overshadowed by unspoken threats. Why does it feel like the world is hurtling toward the abyss?

More than 60 German colleges and universities are leaving Twitter at once. Hot take: This isn't something to applaud. It's a surrender to misinformation and a step toward creating even stronger bubbles that further divide society.

Elon’s hot takes strike again - loud, wrong, while brimming with (false) confidence. As someone who keeps a close eye on German politics, let me just say: backing this party is the fastest way to turn #Germany ’s industrial might into industrial plight.
So… from someone who actually took the time to read the AFD’s election manifesto…
AFD in its foreign policy choices is anti-American.
Wants to put Nordstream II to use. Wants to join the Chinese belt-and-road initiative.

I'm beginning to think #Silo might be one of those rare adaptations that surpasses the book it's based on. Interestingly, the characters feel more nuanced and fully realized compared to what I recall from the original.

Kind of funny to think some believed they’d bring back the Oscar-winning, A-list lead from the last movie just to play a starved infected. Seems like a bit of a waste of talent (and money), don’t you think? 😅
