Hey followers! I've been working on a new project I'm excited about - it's a Small Business Simulator. It's still in version 1, but I'd love some feedback. Check it out at smbsim.com

I think the reason the political landscape has gotten so polarized is because songs don’t have key changes anymore.

I was just nearly fooled by an incredibly complex scam. We got a call from our local county Sheriff's Office. I called the number back, then called the actual non-emergency line. They said I'd receive a call back from an officer. Within 5 minutes, I got a call back (from a No Caller ID number) assuming it was an officer. They said I had a failure to appear and multiple misdemeanors because someone had forged my signature on a summons. They had me going until he asked me to go to a bank to get funds to resolve it. Up until that point, though, the scammer had charge numbers, specific dates, and officer names and I was legitimately worried I could be arrested. I've had issues with USPS deliveries so I really considered this could have been an issue with not receiving an actual summons. Anyway, be careful out there. I thought there was no way I could fall for something.

If you watched You Can See Everything thinking Nathan Fielder is supposed to be an impartial, uninvolved director then you’ve probably never seen his content before. It was a comedy disguised as a documentary.

I have a feeling that AI will be less of a frontier over the next decade and be treated more like a public utility. Government-controlled credits/use, highly regulated, a few open-source defectors, etc. Utilities usually become regulated once a monopoly or duopoly emerges - and it feels like Anthropic and OpenAI are essentially the AT&T of the 20s - 80s.

Today I learned about a company called PooPrints. They upload dog DNA to a database and collect poop samples from apartments and fine residents for not cleaning up. Apparently some places require it to live there. Capitalism is wild.

I don't know how to explain it, but this might be the most incredible vehicle I've ever seen. For sale in Charlotte. Do I pull the trigger?

Next stop for $NBIS in terms of a meaningful pause looks near $285. Thoughts, @Sandeman52?

I bought a soccer jersey on @eBay that I thought was authentic. Contacted seller for refund because item was clearly counterfeit. He said he has a receipt from the Adidas store - it was for a pair of Yeezys. Got the refund, great customer service!

If they move the World Cup final due to smoke, that would be insane. Might I suggest Charlotte as an option, @FIFAcom ?

In the Spain/Argentina final, instead of going into extra time and penalty kicks, they should bring Cape Verde back and have both teams try to beat them.

This is probably the craziest revelation from the declassified Trump election documents:

Crazy stat: England had 1 corner kick all game against Argentina. They averaged 6.5 per game this World Cup. They didn’t just park the bus, they crashed it into a ravine.

I’m going to watch that third place game at 5PM on Saturday so hard. #worldcup #fifa

I’d like to order some of this to inject directly into my veins.

Part 2 of Lamine Yamal versus Messi on Sunday. This was part 1:

As if Messi needed to do more to silence critics - he comes out and provides two massive comeback assists in less than 10 minutes to get Argentina to the final. #GOAT

I’m a huge Messi fan, and I’ll admit I often cheered when Ronaldo would lose - but you have to take a moment and appreciate the fact that we not only got to see two GOATs play in the same era, but against each other as well. #fifaworldcup #messi
