@peacock All-in-all, love live sports, thank you for bringing it to us, but you gotta do better.

@peacock Love the fact that you are covering SMX. The races are awesome, but seriously - your player apps are garbage. WTF do we have to wait an hour after the race for replay? Watch Thursday Night Football on Prime. (Continued)

@peacock Also, we know that to run a successful feed, you have to have many cameras following certain riders - why can't we pick the view? I'd love to watch the Jett cam, and the Deegan cam would rival the entire audience.

@PulpmxShow Tweet at section for @pulpmx I saw this on Nextdoor and thought it might be Steve's neighbors.

*** FOLLOW-UP*** Meowant responded when I asked to talk to a supervisor, and apologized for the strict adherence. They sent a new (and apparently improved) part and the SC02 works great. It took a little prodding, but they did the right thing.

Bought a Meowant SC02 self-cleaning litter box in 2025. Paid $269. Overall it’s been pretty good… until the silicone pad (liner) tore. Contacted support on May 12, 2026 — just 12 days past the 1-year warranty. Their response? “Too bad. Policy is policy.” #Meowant #CustomerService

Interesting chart, but there's an important apples-to-oranges distinction here. Trump's ~$1.4B 'haul' comes mostly from the value of his crypto holdings and token sales (like World Liberty Financial governance tokens and $TRUMP meme coins), which includes a ton of unrealized appreciation and proceeds from selling new tokens/equity to investors.
The public companies (Coinbase, CleanSpark, etc.) are reporting actual business earnings — realized gains/losses from operations, trading, mining, etc. Many of them had negative earnings despite the bull market.
It's more like comparing an entrepreneur cashing in on hype and token launches vs. established companies' bottom-line profits. Pro-crypto policies may be boosting the sector overall, but the personal windfall isn't the same as operational performance.

@elonmusk Elon, I'm a big fan. I currently have a 2020 Model 3P with FSD (included). I am interested in building a micro-factory in/around Boise, Idaho to process the HW3-HW4 conversions to FSD.

I think former Nixon speechwriter, @BenStein1944 could have done better, "My fellow Coloradans:
I come before you tonight as a candidate for Governor of this great state, and as a man whose honesty and integrity have been questioned. The usual political thing to do when charges like this are made against you is to either ignore them or to deny them without giving details. But I believe we’ve had enough of that in Colorado politics. To me, the office of Governor is a sacred trust, and the people have got to have confidence in the integrity of the men and women who run for it and who might obtain it.

I have a theory, too, that the best and only answer to a smear or to an honest misunderstanding of the facts is to tell the truth. And that’s why I’m here tonight. I want to tell you my side of the case. You’ve heard the charge—that Victor Marx has either lived one of the most extraordinary lives in human history or that he’s a liar and a fraud. Now, was that wrong? And let me say that it would be wrong—morally wrong—if any of those stories I’ve told were for my personal glory. I say it was morally wrong if they were secretly exaggerated or secretly handled. And I say it was morally wrong if any of it was meant to deceive the good people of Colorado who deserve straight talk from their next Governor.Let me answer those questions this way: Not one of those rescues, not one of those missions, not one of those moments from my childhood trauma to the front lines of human trafficking and the war on terror, was ever about me. Every single one was about protecting the innocent, about standing up when others wouldn’t, about doing what ordinary Americans expect their leaders to do. It was not a secret life. As a matter of fact, I’ve told these stories openly—for years—because the work wasn’t about me; it was about the women and children we pulled out of hell.But then some of you will say, and rightly, “Well, how do we know it’s all true, Victor? Why should we take your word?” Let me tell you in just a word how an ordinary fellow like me ends up with an extraordinary story. I didn’t come from money. I didn’t come from power. I came from a broken home and a hard road, the same kind of road so many Coloradans have walked. I’ve worked for everything I have. I’ve bled for it. And I’ve never asked the taxpayers of this state for a dime to prop up my https://t.co/gfTU4iGD4I other thing I probably should tell you, because if I don’t they’ll probably be saying this about me too. We did get something—a little Dutch Shepherd dog. My wife and I, we call her Regan. She came to us as a loyal companion, a service dog who’s been right there beside me in the dust of Iraq and the danger of Syria. She’s seen things most politicians only read about in briefing books. And you know, she’s not running for Governor—I am. But Kyle, you come on down here and see this little dog. She’ll look you right in the eye, and she’ll tell you the truth the same way I have.And you know, the kids love that dog, and I just want to say this: regardless of what they say about me, regardless of what the skeptics write or the late-night comics joke about, we’re going to keep her. Because she’s part of our family. She’s proof that an ordinary fellow can live an extraordinary life when he’s called to serve something bigger than himself.And you know what? That’s all I have to say. I don’t need to prove a thing to the cynics. The people of Colorado will decide. But I want you to know this: I’m proud of my record, I’m proud of my family, I’m proud of this little dog who stood with me when the world was on fire. And if you’ll give me the chance, I’ll fight just as hard for every family in this state as I’ve fought for the ones I’ve rescued.Thank you, and God bless Colorado.

The pattern is: each number is the previous number multiplied by 2, then plus 2.
6 × 2 + 2 = 14
14 × 2 + 2 = 30
30 × 2 + 2 = 62
62 × 2 + 2 = 126
126 × 2 + 2 = 254

Lesson for companies: Sometimes being “technically correct” costs you far more in lost loyalty and bad publicity than just doing right by the customer. @meowanthome happy to share order details privately if you want to make this right. Otherwise, potential buyers should know what happens when something goes wrong just outside the warranty window. #Meowant #AutoLitterBox #CustomerServiceFail

Meowant: you have a solid product, but this rigid “12 days past, sorry” approach is exactly why people switch brands. I switched to you after bad experiences with another litter box. Now I’m seriously considering switching away. A small goodwill gesture would have turned me into a raving fan.
