The greatest rock & roll guitarist ever! Miss hearing the way he made it sing.
Six years ago today, we lost Edward Van Halen. Today we celebrate the life and legacy of a true original whose music continues to inspire generations. An undeniable category of one. Rest in peace, King Edward. ❤️🤍🖤 Video: vhnd.com/2026/10/06/category… #EddieVanHalen #VanHalen

We need a free press
Barack Obama at his last press briefing with reporters, 2017: "I have enjoyed working with all of you. That does not, of course, mean that I've enjoyed every story that you have filed, but that's the point of this relationship. You're not supposed to be sycophants. You're supposed to be skeptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions. You're not supposed to be complimentary, but you're supposed to cast a critical eye on folks who hold enormous power."

Batteries are a huge national security issue. Globally, China makes 85% of the cathode active material and 90% of the anode active material and owns 80% of all cell manufacturing capacity. If you believe drones are the future of warfare, as Ukraine and Iran are demonstrating, then we need Western battery supply. Great site making this case: batterygap.com/

The three languages of politics are civilization v barbarism, oppressed v oppressor, and freedom v coercion. A large problem in our society is that many people see everything through only one of these lenses. All of the lenses are valid. We do need to root out barbarism, oppression, and coercion, in approximately that order. What is most skillful and also lacking is to apply the correct lens to the particular situation.

Today, CFS announced another major advance in our fusion energy push: we raised an additional $1 billion in funding. This is the largest investment round in commercial fusion worldwide since our $1.8 billion funding round in 2021, bringing our total capital raised to $4 billion. This investment reflects growing confidence from new partners in our technical progress, our team, and our commercialization path. It comes at a time when it’s clear the world needs a new energy option that provides safe, clean, and firm electricity. “CFS is making what once was impossible into inevitable,” said CFS CEO and Co-founder @BobMumgaard. “In the 2030s, we will put commercial fusion on the grid. We have the science that works and the proven execution that’s consistently validated by the market. We regularly welcome investors from around the world to our headquarters in Devens, Massachusetts, where they see real and tangible progress as we ready support systems and finalize the assembly of SPARC. In unlocking commercial fusion energy, we’re on a path to make an impact at a civilizational level.” CFS will use the funds raised to further accelerate our commercialization progress. In parallel to completing the assembly of our SPARC fusion demonstration machine, we’ll continue to develop the world’s first grid-scale fusion power plant, called ARC, at our Fall Line Fusion Power Station in Chesterfield County, Virginia. #FusionEnergy

Listening to all @SWAMPIZZO’s producer tags on @playboicarti’s latest #iammusic is like an infomercial in the middle of your favorite movie/tv show. Is it really necessary? It cheapens #iammusic. The title of the album should have been #iammarketing

It’s a given that Jump by Van Halen was & is a good song. One of the best in history. And not to take anything away from his younger brother, but Alex’s cymbal work during the keyboard solo is top notch. I love listening to it. #Vanhalen #Jump #1984

Dear Jerry Jones and @dallascowboys, Hire an Andrew Friedman and step back & let him or her do their job just as Mark Walter & Guggenheim Baseball Management has done with the @Dodgers. You’re welcome. #DallasCowboys #Dodgers #nfl #mlb

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome

1/ An interesting analysis by ChatGPT on the psychological aspects of the meeting between Zelensky and Trump-Vance is circulating online. It reveals a masterclass in gaslighting, manipulation, and coercion from Trump and his entourage. Let’s break it down. 1/n
