my "not a golden calf" tweet has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my tweet

[Pastor Mark Burns @pastormarkburns]

Today at Trump National Doral Miami, we witnessed an unforgettable moment with the dedication of the 22-foot statue honoring President Donald J. Trump.

Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf. We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone.

This statue is a celebration of life. It is a symbol of resilience, freedom, patriotism, strength, and the will power to keep fighting for the future of America.

It also stands as a reminder of the hand of God and His protection over President Trump’s life. Time and time again, when his life was threatened, God’s mercy prevailed.

Today was not just a ribbon cutting. It was the public display of a powerful movement that has spread across America and around the world.

I was deeply honored to serve as President Trump’s main point of contact throughout this process, and I do not take that assignment lightly.

I want to personally thank Ash, Dustin Stockton, Brock Pierce, Hershey Friedman, Yaakov Filitchkin, Sam, Jack, and the 6,000+ Patriots who donated, believed, sacrificed, and made this historic moment possible.

Thank you to the entire Trump Doral team for your incredible hospitality and excellence.

And thank you, President Donald J. Trump, for calling me today and speaking to the crowd. We are forever grateful.

God bless President Trump.
God bless every Patriot.
And God bless the United States of America. 🇺🇸

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

If a #1 seed falls 10 points behind any school that runs a polling institute at any point in the game (Siena, Quinnipiac, Marist) they should just be eliminated IMO.

Can’t wait to be accepted into a PhD program and then tweet “they’re letting anyone get a PhD now”

Someone — God bless them! — made an interactive map showing every conbini across Japan and color-coded by territory so you can see who dominates where.

[Randy Olson @randal_olson]

Over a decade ago, @FiveThirtyEight published a clever methodology for estimating someone's age based on their first name.

I turned it into an interactive tool, the Name Age Calculator. Type in "Jennifer" and discover when that name peaked in 140+ years of Social Security data (spoiler: 1970s babies). It went semi-viral and got picked up by major outlets.

I've kept it running all these years because people genuinely enjoy it. It's one of those simple projects that reminds me why I love building things: when data tells an interesting story, people want to engage with it.

Try it out: https://t.co/WbzEOUzFRO

Drop a comment with the most surprising name age you discover. I'm curious what you'll find.

Every member of my family has a PhD in economics. We have a quaint, gift-giving tradition where we all sit in a circle around the Christmas tree. We each take out a crisp 100 dollar bill and gift it to the person sitting to our right.

it’s the memorial of st. catherine of alexandria (my confirmation saint) which also means i get an excuse to show people the insane patronage section of her Wikipedia infobox

[Kyla Scanlon @kylascan]

Peter Thiel (one of capitalism's biggest winners) has said that capitalism isn't working for young people. Mamdani's recent win underscores that point. The rise of the groyper is primarily economic too. So many things point to something in the system either breaking or being misunderstood.

So I spent 30 days traveling across DC, Baltimore, New York, Florida, New Hampshire, Prague, and Ireland to try to figure out what's happening. The problem seems to be that America's enormous prosperity is invisible - hidden in AI data centers that sit empty or in all sorts of financial markets.

It seems to be that economies that invest in visible competence generate trust. When prosperity hides behind chain-link fences and algorithm feeds while everything visible (think infrastructure) decays, people stop believing the system works for them. Link below!
