The roads would be safer if all cars were running FSD 14.3.4 with no one in the drivers seat, than if everyone was driving manually and using their phones.
🚨#BREAKING: U.S. Central Command announces it has begun launching “powerful strikes” against Iran after attacks on three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
Marriott is quietly hoping you never learn how their loyalty program actually works.
I did.
There's $1,800/year in free upgrades, free nights, and hidden rate codes sitting inside the same Bonvoy account most guests use for nothing except checking in.
One woman sent a single email before her stay. Marriott upgraded her to a $3,000 suite. For free.
Most guests book on Expedia, check in, check out, and never touch the 9 features Marriott buries behind the login screen.
Here's the full playbook 🧵
A huge storm knocked out power to 200k+ people in Michigan yesterday.
We had family staying over and friends coming for fireworks.
Thanks to our Tesla Powerwalls, we still had lights, cooking, grilling, and well water.
Without them, we cancel.
Instead, the party went on.
🚨#BREAKING: A 28-year-old confirms he has spent the last 10 YEARS of his life interviewing World War II combat veterans to keep their stories alive...
...in fact, for the last 10 years, he has interviewed World War 2 veterans EVERY SINGLE DAY
He started as a teenager, ditching school to ride his BIKE to the local retirement home, walking up to the front desk and asking to, "meet some World War II heroes."
His name is Rishi Sharma.
He's crossed all 50 states and half the world.
He's slept in his car and lived on gas-station food to afford it.
He asks these men for hours of their memories, and then he hands the entire recording to their families...
...FOR FREE
So that 200 years from now, a great-great-grandchild will know not just their hero's name, but how he laughed, how he cried, and what he sacrificed.
Rishi has no military family, his parents immigrated here from India.
He does it out of pure gratitude.
In his words:
"My parents were given the opportunity to immigrate and raise a family because of veterans like these. It's a debt of love I'll spend my entire life trying to repay..."
As one 100-year-old Marine who stormed Iwo Jima told him, remembering the flag going up:
"The hair on my arms still stands up when I think about how beautiful it was."
THAT is America.
250 years of ordinary people doing extraordinary things...
God bless our veterans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Happy 4th of July. I love this country with all my heart. I became an orphan at a young age, and made a career and a fortune from scratch by working hard & believing in myself. I’m confident that I wouldn’t have been able to do that anywhere else on earth. Bless this nation 🇺🇸
Today, July 4th, 2026, marks 250 years since fifty-six men risked everything, put their names to a single, audacious sentence. That all of us are created equal, and that the right to govern ourselves is held by the people themselves. Happy 4th to all of my fellow Americans 🇺🇸!
The communist doesn’t think to increase the quality of the grid. The communist demands that you decrease the quality of your life.
They make you ration the things that every other American gets to enjoy. Every single time.
We are able to provide free and subsidized food to every child in this country because of those “oligarchs”.
Mamdani on the other hand has not contributed to feeding anybody. He is a taker, not a maker. A looter, not a producer.
What happens when you die:
They divide up your shit.
They summarize your life in 500-1000 words.
People who knew you less say sorry to people who knew you more.
Everyone eats, drives home, and wakes up the next day and goes to work.
Whatever you’re worried about won’t be in those 500 words.
You can dare greatly or not at all, but you’re gonna die either way.
Might as well squeeze every motherfucking drop out.
@ethanmckanna Some of the cons don’t bother me as I control climate via my phone, and I use my own AirPods for audio not the car. I would imagine that’s the most common situation for customers?
