Hey Trump, you can delete the pictures and the articles, but you can’t delete us.

An actual journalist might ask, “Can you show us a few examples of fraud, waste, and abuse cases rather than just saying the words?” Also, “Who will be held accountable for these potentially illegal activities?” And, “Hasn’t Congress been providing oversight?”

I live in San Francisco. I’ve ridden in Waymo many times and considered it a great and safe experience.

I wouldn’t personally ride in a Zoox after watching them maneuver. They are cool looking. Maybe stay on the outside though.

In 21 words, Tim perfectly captures the Trump presidency. They literally have no idea how to govern. Is this the shaking up people wanted?
Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

2 roommates living together in a house. One of them, a Goat Enthusiast, wants to get a goat. 🐐 “The goat is gonna make our lives better, a goat is really what we’ve been missing around here. A goat is really gonna shake things up.”

This is a very good article. It shows in the data what we’ve all been feeling. I’ve always been skeptical that median numbers are so high - I guess that happens when you ignore the numbers you don’t think should count. Fascinating.
It's still the economy, stupid.

I was in DC twice in the month of October, 2024. All my policy people were hugely optimistic about a Harris victory. "After all, the economy is better than ever, and everyone saw what happened in the first Trump admin." 1/n

One of the saddest late-stage capitalism things I’ve seen is rent-to-own scooters and insulated bags for food delivery gig work.

I just gotta say, this dismantling of critical government infrastructure has really given me a new respect for what we had built. It just “worked” so I didn’t have to give it attention because it’s not in my wheelhouse of interests.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

My body has started a fun new thing where I feel depressed if I don’t drink enough water. So maybe start there before other things.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

I think we have to change how we’re talking about what’s going on. We gotta stop saying “Trump” and start saying “republicans”. These people are still going to vote the same way next time.
