USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.

Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.

I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."

"They just come with the table, man."

They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.

This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.

I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.

"Did we…?"

"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."

Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.

My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."

Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.

I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.

Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.

I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.

Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

The US has quietly deployed 82nd Airborne paratroopers to Israel, per deployment order leaked to me.

The deployment is tied to new US-Israel joint contingency plans for seizing Kharg Island and carving out coastal territory inside Iran.

BREAKING: Iran says it has now fully blocked the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, along with the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz, with the next step being strikes on oil, gas and energy infrastructure of US-allied Gulf countries in response to today's Israeli strikes on the Petrochemical Complex, per a source close to Iran's Ghalibaf.

🔥 Chile arde: crecen las protestas contra Kast y se dispara el rechazo a su gobierno

Miles de personas volvieron a salir a las calles en distintas ciudades de Chile para protestar contra las políticas de ajuste impulsadas por el presidente José Antonio Kast.

Sindicatos, estudiantes y organizaciones sociales denuncian recortes, pérdida de derechos y un creciente deterioro económico, mientras la imagen del mandatario sufre una fuerte caída desde su llegada al poder.

Con movilizaciones cada vez más masivas y un clima de tensión en aumento, el descontento social ya se convirtió en uno de los principales desafíos para el gobierno chileno.

I texted Aaron Donald about coming out of retirement and playing for the Rams, alongside Myles Garrett:

“I’m for sure flirting with the idea. Helluva an opportunity with the Super Bowl in SoFi this year. If I can find the fire, it’s a possibility.”

It seems we are now entering a new phase of the rise of inequality in the US.

It's not just wealth and billionaires — it's a broader acceleration.
