I think we can all agree the worst part of this Warriors loss is that wolf sound they keep playing in Minnesota.

If I’m still surprised about anything it’s “the bribes will be in public (and no one will stop us)”.

A new Pope from Chicago and you didn’t choose this guy. Huh. Don’t come crying to him when you need a new dishwasher.

Please no Pope spoilers, I have it DVR’d.

Entrepreneur losing me in the first seconds of a demo over Zoom: "Imagine Chamath said something you liked on the All in Podcast..."

If you want me to join your group chat I'll happily respond with "That is definitely not true but still funny" to whatever meme has reached escape velocity.

I hope he watches “Dave” next.

I had a screen protector on my laptop 20 years ago to prevent seat-mates on planes from reading riveting emails about consumer software. Maybe the chief National Security Advisor (or UN official now) can spare $7 for a privacy protector for his phone? Dumb. As. Rocks. www.404media.co/mike-waltz-a...

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Just had a code issue that was parens around the name of a database and anyway coding is great fun. No notes.

It bears repeating- There is never enough with these folks. There is no such thing as too much. They will try to censor every single thing, and we need to pushback at every turn. Harmful to minors is a political concept designed to push censorship. It has nothing to do with protecting minors.

Now do one funny Pope.

I haven't even looked yet but I have to believe the NYPost has to have something like: FRANK PLANKS AFTER MEETING WITH BLANK WANK

We’re good on OPSEC, honey.

Hegseth will be gone by the end of the month.

On a roadtrip with our youngest son the night of the second debate. We watched in awe while 45 stated immigrants were eating pets. Kamala pulled a face like “WTF are you talking about?!”and I felt that deeply. We headed off to dinner like, “No one could vote for that guy”. No one with a conscience.

Feedback is oxygen for products. Just released a new product to private alpha today. Can’t wait to see if it breathes on its own.

talked to someone at one of the top italian tailoring firms. they plan on moving manufacturing to the US. said that generations of italian tailoring skill and culture can probably be transported to boise, idaho. expect flawless transition by monday.

What are we buying in the face of looming tariffs? - iPhone 16 Pro? - HDMI cables? - Penicillin factory? - Vat-grown protein farm?

“We borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture," vice-president Vance said.” Things are bad right now but when the current badness passes (🤞🏼) — let’s not forget our VP is a full racist too.

So. I wrote a dissertation on how economic crises can lead to the breakdown of authoritarian regimes. Here are three key point to keep in mind as you watch the news this week 🧵

Great note from @s.ly and Kaia about how tariffs are about to impact their small business. shop.keyboard.io/blogs/news/a...

This was the discussion over breakfast this morning. Does anyone think bringing manufacturing back to the US would… 1. Happen quickly? 2. Look at all like it did before (lots of people required vs automation)? 3. Reduce prices? They clearly didn’t think it through.

I haven’t been insufferable on here about how well I’ve been doing in March Madness but the Duke loss finally busted my bracket. Condolences to @deesix.com

Standing on a street corner in front of the Hall of Justice in our hometown of Fremont, CA listening to my nephew lead a chant with some of my favorite people. Democracy is worth shouting about. #handsoff

My friend @shellen.com made the perfect shirt for today’s #HandsOff protest! Thanks, J! ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

It’s time to stand up. They’re already taking away rights. Silencing voices. Rolling us backwards. My mom turns 82 tomorrow and instead of a quiet celebration, she’s co-hosting a protest in Fremont, CA. Because she sees the danger now. Join her. Join all of us. handsoff2025.com

If you live outside the US and are reading this... if we could put one of those "Got this before we knew he was batshit"* bumper stickers on a President we would. * We knew though.
