A Real Sociedad fan was left outside the stadium for the Copa del Rey Final after only 2 of his 3 tickets worked, sending his wife and daughter in without him. 😢
He ended up watching from the pavement nearby… and when he heard Real Sociedad had won, he erupted in pure joy before celebrating the title with his family as they came out. 😍
Football, man. ❤️
Papà sai la Juve non è che se la passi benissimo però secondo me stasera saresti stato orgoglioso della partita che ha fatto contro il Galatasaray e ti saresti unito a quegli applausi che sono partiti spontaneamente allo stadio anche dopo il gol che sanciva definitivamente la vostra eliminazione dai playoff di Champions.
E sai che, per una volta, posso dirti che avrei voluto che la mia Inter avesse giocato ieri sera con la stessa fame che ci avete voi messo stasera?
Non ci fare però l’abitudine, però volevo dirtelo e spero ti possa arrivare questo messaggio.
Buonanotte papà, ovunque tu sia.

FSD just saved me $400 and a trip to the tow yard this morning!
Last night there was no parking anywhere in our apartment complex, so we risked the 7AM loading zone. Wife: “they won’t tow on a Sunday.”
7:15 AM: having breakfast and notice a security guard taking pics of our car, about to call the tow truck, from our 5th floor apartment window
Wife: “RUN!!”
Me: no shoes on
Wife: “WAIT - just summon it!”
I pull up the Tesla app on my iPhone and hit the summon button from our breakfast table.
The car wakes up and begins driving away as the guard is taking photos, leaving him completely dumbfounded. Then the car pulls up directly to our building’s front door.
I run downstairs and jump in the car. Pull up to the security guard, who is surprisingly laughing and amazed: “HOLY SH*T THAT THING DOES THAT BY ITSELF?! LIKE ONE OF THOSE WAYMO THINGS?”
“No, it’s much better than a Waymo, actually!”
Ended up giving a full FSD TED talk to a very impressed security guard this morning 😂
Thanks for saving me $400 and a trip to the tow yard this morning @elonmusk@Tesla_AI 🫡
FSD was definitely my best purchase ever!
After my parents fled the Islamic Regime in 1979, they found safe haven in Queens, New York.
That’s where I was born. In a tiny apartment in Queens.
My parents had nothing. Not money. Not connections. Not even the ability to speak English.
Unlike Zohran Mamdani, I didn’t go to a fancy private school. I went to a NYC public school that was so crowded there weren’t enough desks for each student. Half the time I sat on the radiator in the back of the room and took notes on my lap.
I rode the MTA bus home, while both my parents worked to put food on the table and rebuild their lives.
And they did rebuild. Because in America, and only in America, capitalism gave them a real chance to start again.
The people supporting Mamdani are just like him. A bunch of entitled rich kids who have no clue how lucky they are, and even less of a clue why they have been conditioned to hate America.
They don’t know what it’s like to buy shoes two sizes too big so you don’t outgrow them before the end of the school year.
To act as the translator for your parents at 6 years old.
To claw your way from having nothing to achieving something.
And today they celebrate, because they’re too dumb or radicalized or both to realize they’re falling for the same Islamist-Marxist lies that caused my parents to flee Iran in the first place.
All to destroy a city that was once a hopeful refuge for millions of people who just wanted a better life.
People like me and my family.
What a sad, sad day.
My heart is absolutely broken for NYC.
Two years ago, today.
When Brazilian channel TV Globo caught this live: a young Fluminense fan's sashaying emotions - from despair to dizzy, delirious tears - as the 99th minute winning goal went in. ❤️
My wife was at the dealership to get a tire rotation and balance.
This was known to be a little over $100 and the oil change is about $100.
So naturally we expected a bill of maybe $200-$220 when it was done.
Wife texts and says it’s going to be $325.
She said because they said I needed an air filter.
So I called and asked them to itemize it for me before she drives off.
The air filter was $75!
I told them not to do it.
He said “it’s already in”
I said, “take it out, I just found a set of air and cabin filters for $20 as we talked. If I can get it for that, a Mazda dealer is getting it for less and it’s two thumb clips to change.”
He said “I can’t do that”
I said “you can and you will because if you don’t I’ll never buy there again and I’ll tell everyone and anyone not to. Is that worth the price of a $20 filter”
He said, “ok, sir… but to be clear, she agreed to it”
I said, “of course she did, but I didn’t set up an appointment for an air filter and I never would.”
My point is this— people need to push back. This has all gotten incredibly ridiculous.
Folks, I bought a filter set for a Maserati for $22 dollars and that was 2 air filters & a cabin filter, and all of 10 minutes TOTAL to replace.
I truly believe that all of this has to do with us no longer teaching kids (or wives) that certain things in life are absolutely easy to do.
*END RANT*
You worked a 9-5 for 50 years.
Then the government printed 50% of the money supply and erased 25+ years of your life savings away.
And you think Bitcoin is a scam? 🤔
If you tell people you are buying a $70k car, they'll say: "Congrats!"
If you tell people you are putting $70k into #bitcoin, they'll say: "Aren't you scared?"
Funny how wealth-building raises red flags, but spending money on stuff guaranteed to lose value gets celebrated.

US Federal Housing Finance Agency orders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to count Bitcoin & crypto as an asset when assessing mortgage eligibility.
