The next time you feel like giving up, remember this: Elon Musk sat here after losing $100 million.

This photo was taken after SpaceX’s third rocket failure. Elon had burned through nearly $100 million of his own money, SpaceX was weeks away from bankruptcy, Tesla was struggling, and he was reportedly sleeping on friends’ couches.

The media called him reckless. Investors pulled back. Almost everyone told him to quit.

But instead of giving up, Elon risked everything on one final launch.

If it failed, SpaceX was finished.

It didn’t fail.

That launch succeeded, and it changed history.

Today, SpaceX is reportedly valued around $1.25 trillion, dominates the private space industry, and is preparing for what could become one of the largest IPOs ever, with reports pointing to a valuation near $1.75 trillion.

Most people quit right before the breakthrough.

Elon kept pushing when everything was against him.

That is the difference between almost succeeding and changing the world.

Starlink V3 satellites have >10X bandwidth of V2 and there’ll be >10X launched, which means >100X more bandwidth.

Also, altitude will be 350km vs 550km, so min latency can be cut in half.

Light travels 300km/ms in space, so physics round trip min latency drops to <5ms.

Neuralink is prepping to test its first Blindsight implant later this year.

A lot of people hear "vision restoration" and assume it's about fixing damaged eyes.

That's not the plan.

The plan is to send visual information directly to the visual cortex of the brain.

Even if the eyes are gone.
Even if the optic nerve is gone.

That's a very different and very interesting conversation.

Tesla Roadster vs Ferrari Luce

Inspiring!

@EndWokeness Again, without X we would not even know things like these are actually happening…

@zhao_dashuai Haha, so true

Welcome back to our timeline, Little X!

We missed you dearly 🫶❤️

That happy little boy, joyfully bouncing along hand in hand with his dad, Elon Musk… absolutely wonderful

@SawyerMerritt @Tesla FSD activations should be tied to the Tesla account rather than the vehicle. This would let account holders use Full Self-Driving on a rental or any other Teslas as well.

The NHTSA has just officially announced that the 2026 @Tesla Model Y is ​the first ​vehicle model to pass ⁠the agency’s new ​advanced driver assistance ​system tests.

2026 Tesla Model Y vehicles, manufactured on or after Nov. 12, 2025, successfully met the new criteria for four newly integrated advanced safety tests:
• Pedestrian automatic emergency braking
• Lane keeping assistance
• Blind spot warning
• Blind spot intervention

“Today’s announcement marks a significant step forward in our efforts to provide consumers with the most comprehensive safety ratings ever,” said NHTSA Administrator Jonathan Morrison. “By successfully passing these new tests, the 2026 Tesla Model Y demonstrates the lifesaving potential of driver assistance technologies and sets a high bar for the industry. We hope to see many more manufacturers develop vehicles that can meet these requirements.”

The truth is still the truth, even if no one believes it.
A lie is still a lie, even if everyone believes it.

Accurate

🚨Fact : If Trump had never become President or Trump had never appeared,

• All Asia would have fallen completely under Chinese communist control.

• The Middle East would be in even greater chaos, with Israel under constant threat.

• Europe would be collapsing due to mass migration and Islamization.

• Africa would be dominated by China.

• All of Latin America would have turned into failed socialist states like Venezuela.

✅ The mere fact that Donald Trump is President right now is an incredible blessing.

We should be deeply grateful to God for him.

@DevinOlsenn True!

Video k*ll the radio stars...

Elon Musk just told Joe Rogan every app on your phone will be dead in 5 years.

Not struggling. Not declining.

Dead.

Musk: “You’ll get everything through AI.”

Rogan asked the timeline.

Musk: “5 or 6 years, something like that.”

Rogan: “So 5 or 6 years, apps are like Blockbuster video.”

Musk: “Pretty much.”

That’s not some AI newsletter prediction.

That’s the guy who owns the platform you’re reading this on telling you the entire app economy has an expiration date.

Think about how your phone actually works right now.

Apps trained your brain to think in boxes.

One box for email. One for music. One for video. One for food. One for banking.

Your entire digital life is opening and closing 30 different boxes. All day. Every day.

AI doesn’t think in boxes.

It thinks in intent.

Musk: “Whatever you can think of or really whatever the AI can anticipate you might want, it’ll show you.”

Not what you search for. Not what you tap on.

What you haven’t even thought of yet.

The app needed you to know what you wanted and go get it yourself.

AI arrives before the thought fully forms.

That’s not an upgrade to the interface.

That’s the end of the interface.

Musk went further.

He said most of the content people consume in 5 to 6 years will be AI-generated. Music. Video. All of it.

Rogan admitted AI-generated music is already his favorite.

Not a prediction. Present tense.

The ground already moved. Most people are still arguing about which streaming app has the better library.

Every major tech company of the last 15 years was built on one assumption.

That you would come to them.

Download their app. Learn their layout. Give them your attention. Give them your data.

AI inverts that entire model.

You stop going to anything. Everything comes to you. Anticipated, filtered, delivered before you finish the sentence.

The App Store doesn’t shrink.

The concept of an app store stops making sense entirely.

You don’t browse a shelf of tools when the tool already knows what you need.

The phone isn’t dying.

But the 30 icons on your home screen are the Blockbuster shelves of 2031.

And right now, you’re still renting.
