@DeveloperHarris@MeganNyvold@komodomiami@TerryBlacks_BBQ They’re the one big Austin place I haven’t been yet. In Texas monthly top 10 last two times so I’m sure they’re great. If you’re new there you prob don’t know how lucky you are — it’s relatively recent that Austin became a hotbed of elite bbq. So many great spots now!
“If we win the House and Senate, I am directing the Department of Justice to settle all remaining legitimate claims as soon as possible”
He could, of course, direct the DOJ to do so right now if he actually gave a shit about those veterans and their families
Trump on Camp Lejeune water contamination claims: "If we win the House and Senate, I am directing the Department of Justice to settle all remaining legitimate claims as soon as possible ... if we don't win, there's no money."
GENUINELY NEED SOMEONE TO WALK ME THROUGH THIS.
My homeowners insurance jumped from $1,850 a year to $2,450.
That's a $600 increase.
Zero claims filed. Not one, in seven years with the same company.
Called to ask why.
The rep pulled up my account, confirmed my clean history, then said the increase reflects regional risk trends tied to storm activity and rebuilding costs across the state, not anything specific to my policy.
So I asked directly. Did anything happen to my house?
She said no.
I'm paying $600 more a year for events that happened to other people's houses, in other parts of the state, that I have no connection to and never filed a claim over.
That's not really insurance based on my behavior at that point.
That's a regional tax with my name quietly attached to the bill.
SCOOP: Vivek Ramaswamy is doubling down on the explosive ad featuring Amy Acton's estranged mother attacking her daughter, putting $4 million behind it despite fierce bipartisan backlash

NEW: Following the release of an ad in which her mother, Donna Arthur, attacks her, court records obtained by @NRO confirm key parts of Amy Acton’s personal history, including that she was sexually abused by her stepfather while Arthur was married to him https://t.co/6UGIxBMK7G
SCOOP: Julio Herrera Velutini, a Venezuelan billionaire, really wanted a pardon. He got it not long after his daughter hired Alina Habba, a lawyer close to Trump, in a deal worth more than $50 million. Habba was also working at DOJ at the time.

Foursquare was so hot after it launched the founders could have made ~$100M in a year over 15 years ago. Instead they chose to try and build an enduring company. Sometimes that works out, other times it’s a long grueling grind with no great outcome. Great writeup here:
Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. https://t.co/HgcgI9DWvy
@snoopsonar@VivekGRamaswamy Guy has zero chance at ever being President, that’s the important part. He’s a complete fake, rich elite LARPing as a wannabe Trump.
I should have kept receipts on all the Twitter pundits who were confident Vivek was a serious candidate for the GOP nom, a likely VP pick, and a future leader of the Republican Party
@feedbackboop lol I used that once before touchless ID rolled out at sfo and they knew it was valid but were so confused by it I just ended up pulling out my ID haha. Also the app is very annoying with having to refresh it etc.
why do ppl carry around wallets still?
i haven't carried a physical wallet for few years now.
my pockets just have two things: iphone + airpods.
you no longer really need anything else to interact with the world.
Absolutely wrong. Carbone, Momofuku, Milk Bar, Nobu, Bazaar Meat (original was Vegas), L’Atelier/joel robuchon, CUT and various other steakhouses are some other examples that are just as good. The Vegas outposts much bigger than other locations are often worse though.
