NEW: The Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship, blocking Trump’s campaign to dismantle the 14th Amendment and its protections for the children of immigrants.
The Constitution is clear: If you were born here, you are an American citizen. No one can change this fact.
Happy Father’s Day to the millions of dads who, in these tough times, are doing their best to raise healthy and happy kids.
There is nothing more important.
A Model Y driver started experiencing a medical emergency with chest pain mid-drive & called his son.
His son then remotely rerouted the car – which had FSD Supervised enabled – to the nearest hospital & let them know the vehicle was en route. ER staff were standing by on arrival.
Doctors later confirmed the quick reroute likely saved his life.
Packing thousands of straws together basically creates a low-tech pixel screen.
Each straw acts as an independent light pathway, perfectly mimicking how data channels work.
My kids broke the charge port on the Model-Y while playing 🏈 last week and followed up with @Tesla to get quote to replace the charge port door.
Unfortunately, @Tesla could not replace the access door by itself and quoted me $275 to replace the entire assembly. I looked online and saw that I could replace the door for less than $10… so I did it in 20 seconds…

Warren Buffett has been filing his income tax returns from the age of 13. He is now 95. Not only he is filing returns for last 82 years, he has details and copies of all the 82 returns.
When I was in US, lot of my free time was spent in local library. For a voracious reader like me, the variety and volume of books available were feast to the brain.
That's when I first came across Warren Buffett. I think at that time he was the richest or second richest person on earth. And he built it from the scratch legally. I found it difficult to believe that someone can become richest person in the world purely through legal means. That created a huge impression in me.
I made what my auditor then considered as a weird decision. From the time I started accumulating wealth, I began giving all the information to income tax department. For a few lakhs of rupees wealth, I started submitting cash flow statement, Profit and Loss account and balance sheet along with my IT returns.
My current auditor came into my life around two decades ago. He was surprised when he saw my previous returns with this much details. I explained him why I needed it that way. He was also surprised that from every single bank transaction to all financial transactions were entered and maintained in Tally. I was also keeping in box files all back up papers for each financial year.
Within few years of our relationship, he not only implemented this model for his family but also to some of his willing clients.
After I got married, my wife found it very odd to file income tax returns like this. Convinced her and implemented the same for her too.
Time runs fast.
By God's grace, we are wealthy.
But the interesting part is right from my first income tax return to last year - not only I've records of all IT returns, I also have original statements and documents for all financial years. It's all there in tally too.
I don't have a single rupee of black money. More than investing, in which I'm still a novice, I learned lot of life lessons from Warren Buffett.
I don't want to claim any moral superiority. For many people, especially in developed nations, this practice is very normal. Being honest is probably considered abnormal only in our country.
From my life, I'm convinced that it is possible to become rich through legal means. I'm now 53. If God gives me say another 20 to 25 years of life, I'm confident of creating phenomenal wealth, that too purely through legal means.
Warren Buffett says it is very important as to who you have as role model in life. I've few role models in life and probably he was the first to join the list.
Role model matters.
Building significant wealth through legal means is 100% possible.
The majority of recycled polyester is made from PET plastic. Typically old plastic bottles that get shredded, melted down, and spun into synthetic fibers
This is turned into leggings, sports bras, workout tops, underwear, pajamas and clothes we wear directly on our skin for hours
But it doesn’t stop there, it’s treated where chemicals. The new clothing gets treated with dyes, finishes, stretch chemicals, odor-control coatings and more
This is all true
The vast majority around 99% of recycled polyester in clothing comes from post-consumer PET bottles, which are shredded, melted, and spun into fibers for activewear, leggings, underwear and more
Recycling doesn’t turn plastic into a natural fiber, it remains a petroleum-derived synthetic polymer
Just because it’s “Recycled” doesn’t mean it’s non-toxic, natural, or breathable: It doesn’t magically become skin-friendly or healthy just because it had a previous life as a bottle
All polyester sheds microplastics during washing and wear. Recent 2025 studies found that recycled polyester often sheds 55% more microfibers than virgin polyester and the particles are smaller. This makes them potentially more harmful as they spread easier and penetrate deeper
Recycled polyester requires additional chemical processing, dyes, and performance coatings for odor control, stretc my and more
This results in a chemical cocktail you’re wearing directly on your skin
American foods are cleverly changing their names because they no longer qualify as that legal food
- Pringles used to be potato chips, now they’re labeled as “potato crisps” per FDA rules
- McDonald’s Shakes are now called “shakes” (not legally milkshakes in some states)
- Klondike Bar is no longer a chocolate shell, it’s a Chocolatey shell (not real chocolate)
- Dairy Queen: All items are “treats” (no “ice cream” on the menu)
- Oreo changed the spelling to “creme” (alternative spelling, not real cream)
- Tyson changed spelling to “Wyngz” (It’s a processed chicken labeling trick)
- Costco Blueberry Bagels labels as Imitation blueberry bagels (no actual blueberries)
- Pearl Milling Company Syrup (formerly Aunt Jemima) Now ‘Original syrup’ not maple syrup. The first ingredients is corn syrup
Our food is a science experiment
