Id vote for Matthew McConaughey.
I’d do it for no other reason than to piss off the left and the right.
I’d do it because democrats and republicans have systematically made life objectively worse for every American time and time again.
I’d vote for him because I’ve had enough.
I will be going to the voting booth and voting independent, or writing myself in.
Not a single vote for the left or the right until they get their shit together.
When I was a kid, my family took me on a road trip to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center specifically to see their anti-gravity chamber.
They asked the gate guard where it is because they couldn’t find information about it on the pamphlet.
The guard looked at us as if we were retarded, and said there’s no such thing. Then my parents argued with him, explaining that they are certain it exists and they drove all the way across the country to show the kids.
So finally he told us it was closed for maintenance and pointed us towards the museum.
My parents complained about it the entire trip and said “sorry, we should have called ahead of time”.
Israel once again caught spying on everyone.
This time it’s with ads that install the spyware without having to click.
That means it installs itself on your phone if it simply shows up while scrolling.
Use brave browser, use ad-blockers, turn off personalized ads.
Israel spyware firms hacked into Al Jazeera devices in 2024 using a new ‘adfection’ method previously unknown to the public. The ‘zero click’ hacks can infiltrate your phone or computer simply by scrolling past an ad online.

At 18, I had dreams of becoming an airline pilot. But after being arrested for possession of cannabis, the FAA grounded me, bringing my flight training and aspirations for a career in aviation to an abrupt halt.
At 19, I enlisted in the United States Navy.
At 20, I was a certified aircraft mechanic, maintaining military fighter jets and launching them from the flight deck of an aircraft carrier.
At 23, I was leading a naval aviation maintenance shop, responsible for 12 fighter jets, and had traveled all over the world.
At 24, I enrolled in community college.
At 25, I started pursuing a physics degree at the Illinois Institute of Technology, where I was failing miserably.
At 26, I took my first software engineering class, discovered a new passion, and changed my major to Computer Information Systems.
At 29, I landed my first job as a software engineer.
At 30, I started building my own company.
At 32, I became a software engineer at Fermilab, one of the United States’ premier national laboratories.
At 34, I had traveled to CERN in Switzerland and was collaborating with engineers and scientists on a massive software infrastructure project, helping modernize the systems responsible for storing and managing scientific data for decades to come.
At 35, I officially launched my company, @Gear_OS.
At 36, I’m running a maintenance software company, a journeyman aircraft mechanic, nearing completion of my private pilot’s license, and developing software that supports some of the world’s leading physics laboratories.
At 18, I thought I’d ruined my future.
At 36, I’ve built a future that 18-year-old me couldn’t have imagined.
I’ve failed, changed directions, started over, and found myself back at square one more times than I can count.
But I’ve learned that the mistakes and failures you make when you’re young don’t have to define the rest of your life, and the opportunities you lose can make room for ones you never knew existed.
If you’re struggling with regret or feel like you’ve already ruined your future, remember that your story isn’t over.
You can learn, change direction, and build a life that looks completely different from the one you once imagined.
And if you feel like you’re at the beginning of a journey like my own,
DM me. I know how hard it is in the moment, and would be more than happy and willing to guide you to your next step.

Years of work nobody saw. Slow, painfully slow progress.
I'm not a success story yet. I'm still writing it.
Just hoping for a happy ending.
Sometimes it really boggles my mind how fast AI has evolved in the software engineering space.
Like, you can tell it to implement or do anything, and it’ll just… do it.
Obviously you still check for correctness, but that’s the point.
One year ago it was an entire process, now it’s just a minor detail here or there.
If you’re not planning to vote, I get it, and am presenting you a different, better option.
Write my name in and Vote for me instead.
I’ll take any and all seats that I win, even if it means multiple seats across different states and districts, and will do a better job than everyone else that currently occupies them, combined.
For those that didn’t read it:
The IRGC does NOT insinuate that you should vote democrat.
The narrative is using it as a smear against democrats, to give you the illusion that only left and right exists, and right is better.
Third party exists, and is probably the best way to actually achieve something good for our country.
End the 2-party system.
Did you read the IRGC letter and formulated your own opinion?
Or did you let someone form the opinion for you?
🚨BREAKING: Mark Levin accuses @realDonaldTrump of being unwise and incompetent as the IRGC urges Americans to vote for wise and competent leaders in a 26 page letter.
Say what you will about Iran, but I don’t think they could have said it any better:
“If we were to boil down all of the problems that have caused the defeat of the American military, we would have to point to one glaring deficiency—a deficiency in competent leadership. If you wish to assess the validity of this statement, one quick and easy comparison would suffice: Gauge the current commander-in-chief of the United States against the same criteria on the basis of which Iran’s commander-in-chief is selected—knowledge, justness, piety, social and political insight, and courage. The result that such comparison yields is, without any exaggeration, jarring: Not only is the commander-in-chief of the American armed forces lacking in these virtues; he embodies their polar opposites.
America’s national security and the lives of its servicemembers are entrusted to someone who is not only an inveterate liar but is also an insanely avaricious man whose only motivation in life is the accumulation of greater wealth. He conducts American foreign policy in accordance with his personal interests, flaunting the bribes he takes from the heads of wealthy nations. Rather than managing international relations through official government institutions, he appoints members of his family and his business partners to function as his representatives on the international stage. He calibrates the pace of war not on the basis of American national interests but in line with factors conducive to compounding his personal wealth, making announcements and publishing social- media posts pertaining to the war that are intended solely to make his purchase and sale of stocks more lucrative.”
