Aim assist is so overblown that it's actually silly when people bring it up. But let's play Devil's Advocate and pretend that all players have PERFECT aim via aim assist. Think logically. What does that mean? It means they must obtain an advantage in other ways, whether it's movement, map knowledge, timing, etc. Ninja was a top player when Halo was more popular than Counter Strike. He competed when there was the most competition, and anyone with functional braincells knows it takes more than aim to reach that level.

Try again, bro.

@optimajzer @hallzerksmullet He actually was a professional. He was a top player in the Halo games during its peak fame. That's why he succeeded transitioning to streaming.

@mozocs2 @hallzerksmullet He actually was a professional player in the Halo games, which most people don't know. That's where he got his start.

@raindotgg Ah yes, let's remove the map with the best skill jumps, ladder flings, vent hops, bhops, hardest wallbangs, hardest utility, and nost sweaty games. The noobs will finally quit crying about Mirage and move on to whatever map has the 2nd highest skill gap.

The strongest red flag was when leftists lost the ability to be funny. Comedy relies on subverting expectations to expose truth. Leftism subverts the truth to peddle lies. That’s why they can’t be funny, they can’t reveal the truth, their entire politics depends on concealing it.

More people are arrested for speech offenses in the UK than any other country. This is insane.

@EeaSYcs Individual opinions do not matter, the market collectively decides and creates the consensus / value of skins. That consensus is the REAL value, not people's individual opinions.

@Ghostlydolphins I see players get away with this in clips, but it never works for me. I'm only 20k Premier right now and get donked every time I try aggressive movement plays like this. Unlucky?

@edgardchow @NotPauseNPlay They are definitely carried by gem knives but so are other gloves.

There was a guy I worked with that was single for a long time. He acted very passive-aggressive for no apparent reason and always seemed bitter / angry about little things at work that a normal person wouldn't care about. He finally got a girlfriend and suddenly became more laid back and friendly.

I don’t think people truly understand what’s about to happen with 𝕏 Money.

This is Elon going back to his roots - back to https://t.co/xPHLRiKvNk - and building what he always wanted in the first place: one place that runs your entire financial life.

When he rebranded Twitter to 𝕏 in 2023, he said straight up that we’re adding the ability to conduct your entire financial world. He even said you may not even need a traditional bank account.

Most people brushed that off. And now it’s becoming real.

𝕏 Money has already been live in closed beta internally within the company. A limited external beta is expected soon, and they’ve already secured money transmitter licenses in over 40 states plus DC. 𝕏 Payments is registered with FinCEN. Visa is officially partnered. You’ll be able to fund your wallet instantly, send peer-to-peer payments, move money to your bank, and eventually use a debit card.

And I think this is just the beginning.

This will probably start as a simple wallet where you can send money as easily as sending a DM. With this technology, you can pay creators, pay subscriptions, pay whatever bills, shop inside the app, get paid inside the app, and much more.

Then, there will be high-yield savings, you can invest, you can get loans, have money market accounts, maybe even treasury access, cool smart cashtags that let you see live stock prices in your timeline and execute trades seamlessly, crypto integration, potentially full asset management… the list goes on and on… Elon literally said this is meant to be the central source of ALL monetary transactions.

Bro… think about that for a sec.

Your 𝕏 profile becomes your financial identity.

Everyone you follow is already there. Everyone you interact with is already there. That social graph becomes your distribution engine. Like, you won’t need a separate banking app, no need for a separate investing app, no need for a separate payment app… this all lives where you already spend your time. Right here on 𝕏.

Look at WeChat in China, which Elon always alluded to. Payments, messaging, shopping, investing - all integrated in one app. It handles $ trillions in volume and became deeply embedded in everyone’s daily life. Now 𝕏 is building the Western version of that, but with a more global reach, and xAI’s AI layered on top of all this.

Before you call me crazy, you have to understand how big this opportunity is.

Digital payments globally are measured in the tens of $ trillions of dollars annually. Even just capturing a small slice of that across hundreds of millions, and eventually a billion, users can change everything. 𝕏 already has the audience. That lowers customer acquisition costs significantly. Add fintech revenue on top of ads, plus float, plus lending, plus investing tools, and we’re talking about a completely different valuation profile.

Now, $44B for this company looks like the bargain of the decade… this was one of the main reasons I invested in 𝕏.

And if they execute the way they’ve executed at Tesla and SpaceX, this could truly fundamentally redefine how people handle $ .

Most people today still see 𝕏 as just a social media app. I see it as the foundation of a financial system layered on top of a global network. Ultimately becoming the “everything” app.

And this I believe is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.

Elon is calling this a game-changer.

I believe him.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Former President Bill Clinton VINDICATES President Trump on Epstein, calls out the Democrats for trying to avoid it

"There was NO follow-up question. The president NEVER...NEVER said anything to me to make me think he was involved on anything to Epstein! He just didn't!"

"It's the truth! As I said earlier, the only conversation I had with President Trump about this was the early-2000s. No information that he did anything wrong."

DEMOCRATS IN SHAMBLES!

The files backfired on them, big time.

[Sam LaPoint @SamRLaPoint]

@TDM_Jesus I had several crypto positions ruined by Gary Gensler and Democrats... now they're coming for my skins? I'm starting to understand. Only rich people are allowed to make money via alternative assets. Everything is a shakedown under the guise of "protecting" people.

[Remarks @remarks]

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Former President Bill Clinton testifies under oath that President Trump was not involved with Jeffrey Epstein.
