You love to see it. Now on to META and OpenAI.

Currently think all these LLMs should exist—they just owe a lot of people a lot of money.

How actual leaders think and speak.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Nothing but respect for how the French continue to honor those who fought at Normandy.
Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

It's just so much dumber than in my nightmares.
Incredibly, this appears to be true. We tariffed our own (jointly operated with the UK) military base.
We tariffed BIOT, Mike.

BIOT. Diego fucking Garcia.

We tarrifed our own military base.

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

Hank and I did similar promo codes with the same discount for twitter and threads.

Bluesky has produced about 3.5x as many sales as twitter, and over 6x more than threads.

Bluesky is better for promo, in addition to being better for everything else.
good.store is home to high-quality socks, soap, coffee, and tea. We make world-class products and donate 100% of the profit to support healthcare systems in impoverished communities.

Because I like Bluesky, I made an offer just for you: Get 11% off anything at good store using the code BLUESKY.
Good Store
Founded by John and Hank Green with the belief that humanity can be good news. At Good Store, we’re searching the world for the best versions of the products that you use daily, like socks, coffee, or...
