Dear @elonmusk,

Please consider making your first robot to be capable of reffing football games. The human version is afraid of negative responses from the crowd. It’s a defect that ought to be fixed.

Thanks,

I think the Xbox 360 is still in tip top shape at 10 years old, and it’s just being sabotaged by Microsoft so that you have to buy the new one. Same thing with the iPhone 4.

I read this social psychology study on self-esteem. Sure, you ought see if the evolutionary lens makes sense of it, but when that’s the only lens you’re looking through, you might be shoving reason into a tunnel that it doesn’t fit in. Maybe we’re not merely trying to survive?

I talked to a former professor of mine today — super smart guy. I learned a lot about a lot. Listen and/or retweet. https://t.co/Abo2HzIKtf

Y’all checkout my man @jake_coppock’s new podcast “Human Conversations”. It carries a sense of genuine conversation that’s good for the ears. Inspired me to open a book and explore my own mind a bit! https://t.co/R4o0qOGagS

The slow-mo close-ups of lebron’s squinched eyebrows yelling at the officials is a great example of fake news. They’re all complaining, he’s just the one we all wanna know and hate.

Waking up is a hard thing
Readjusting
Remembering who you want to be
Fighting the urge to return to the
darkness behind closed eyes

If I could find some humility, I’d probably give myself a pat on the back for it.

@dabruise I’m always getting calls from people saying “I just got a call from this number” and I reply “Well honey I didn’t call you”. I think it’s possible that the old lady isn’t lying.

This whole “defer” trend is a prime time example of making silly decisions for the sake of seeming tough and collected. It’s better to lose the coin toss at this point.

I hate that I hate when it snows a lot. Mini Jake would’ve been siked, and I liked mini Jake.
