Freed to sit and just listen. Freed to say “I don’t know”. Freed to feel uncomfortable. Freed to let loose ends dangle. No image, no results to show, no brand, no expectations, no answers to give. Just be. Just present.

This is INSANE, Anthropic ran its marketing with basically one person.

Austin lau, a non-technical growth lead, was running paid search, paid social, email, and seo solo.

Here’s the workflow:

> export ad CSVs into Claude Code
> AI flags underperforming ads
> agents generate new headlines + descriptions
> Figma auto-swaps copy across 100 ad templates
> MCP server pulls live Meta data

The results:

> ad creation went from 2 hours to 15 minutes.
> total marketing output grew 10×.
> conversion rates landed 41% above industry average.

One person doing what used to take an entire marketing team.

Every aspect of life is being stripped of color.

Many have noticed this trend — but why exactly is it happening?

Something deeper is going on… (thread) 🧵

According to the Social Security database, these are the numbers of people in each age bucket with the death field set to FALSE!

Maybe Twilight is real and there are a lot of vampires collecting Social Security 🤣🤣

Did you know that USAID, using YOUR tax dollars, funded bioweapon research, including COVID-19, that killed millions of people?

I opened my NYTimes app today. They’re trying, but they can’t keep up. News that broke just hours ago is already off the homepage.

THIS IS CRUCIAL

The entire liberal deep state command and control system is broken. Let me explain 🧵

The left is fully aware that Elon Musk's strategies are all about playing the long game.

His moves are calculated, aimed at achieving sustainable, transformative objectives with DOGE.

He is effectively dismantling and rebuilding to combat corruption within the U.S. Government.

They recognize now that when Elon Musk sets his sights on something, he's not just participating in the game; he's redefining it, and that terrifies them.

[Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius]

To fully understand just how remarkable today’s exchange with Colombia was, you need to understand how Washington DC has traditionally worked through these sorts of issues, and the different way it works now under Trump.

I’ll illustrate.

Traditional Approach:

1. Colombia announces it will not take our repatriation flights.
2. On Monday, the State Department convenes an interagency task force with DoD, NSC, DEA, INS, ICE, Commerce, Treasury and Homeland Security.
3. The task force meets for four days and develops a position paper.
4. The position paper is rejected by the Secretary of State, who is unhappy that insufficient equity considerations are built into the process.
5. The task force reconvenes a week later to redevelop three new, equity-centric courses of action and create a new position paper.
6. The process is delayed a week because Washington DC gets three inches of snow.
7. SecState approves the new position paper for interagency circulation, and considerable input is received from the heads of other departments so the task force must reconvene.
8. The original three proposed responsive courses of action are scrapped in favor of a new, fourth course of action that achieves the worst aspects of the three prior courses of action but satisfies the interagency.
9. Someone in State who disagrees leaks to the Washington Post, who writes a story about how ineffective the Presidential administration is.
10. The White House Chief of Staff sets up a session three days later to brief the President, who approves the new fourth course of action.
11. Over a month after the issue is first raised, the State Department Public Affairs Officer holds a press conference announcing that Colombia has agreed to try to send fewer criminals into the US and everyone declares victory.

Trump Approach:

1. Colombia announces it will not take our repatriation flights.
2. After a par-5 third hole where he goes one under par, Trump uses his iPhone to post on social media as to how the USA will destroy Colombia’s economy if they do not do what the USA demands.
3. By the time Trump gets to the par-4 sixth hole, Colombia’s President has agreed to repatriate all the illegal Colombians in his own plane, which he will pay for.
4. Trump finishes three under par and goes to the clubhouse for a Diet Coke where he posts a gangsta AI image of himself and the new FAFO Doctrine.
5. Winning.

See the difference? It’s called LEADERSHIP.

[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

The only REAL explanation as to why Nvidia, $NVDA, crashed today:

1. Clearly, DeepSeek has become a leader in AI innovation with Nvidia calling it an "excellent AI advancement"

2. In theory, AI advancement is BULLISH for Nvidia because it means more chip demand

3. The issue is that DeepSeek is in China, a highly regulated country in the midst of a trade war with the US

4. This means Nvidia can likely only sell their weaker H800 chips in mass quantities to DeepSeek, not the leading H100 chips that are $30,000+ each

5. Even as DeepSeek holds LESS ADVANCED chips, China was effectively able to generate an AI model that is 96% cheaper more efficient and 90%+ cheaper

6. Meanwhile, their AI model is FREE compared to relatively expensive ($200+ per month) and less efficient AI models like ChatGPT

7. It appears that China has begun to innovate at speeds that were previously believed to be impossible. US tech assumed its dominance was impossible to dethrone

8. Large cap tech in the US is now facing reality, they can get a better AI model for FREE and it's only getting better. Why pay a premium for a worse product?

9. The next response may be US restrictions on DeepSeek or chip exports to China (as we have seen for months) but this clearly is not working

10. If Nvidia can find a way to tap into newly created demand from the advancement of DeepSeek, this dip will be viewed as a gift

11. Ultimately, AI competition for both hardware and software is picking up, no company is "safe," and the rate of innovation is only going to accelerate

Large cap US tech was blindsided today, but innovation is about to enter a whole new realm.

The AI race is on.

I missed my pillow, missing my familiar skincare routine and the shampoo hair care. That’s all.

[rwnmmd @rwnmmd]

The pain is real. The tears were real. The emotions were so real. Nothing was made up. Am I possessed?

[rwnmmd @rwnmmd]

BD never felt this real. REAL. I’ve never felt so awful & then again, everything felt was real and genuine and I wasn’t scheming. If I was, it wouldn’t feel so bad but the pain was real.

[rwnmmd @rwnmmd]

I thought I could be delivered and right after the deliverance prayer, I plunged right into craziness - full blown craziness. Granted everything happened in bad timing, ill-fated and still fated. Cried. Cried badly in the rain. Didn’t eat 2 full meals and didn’t feel hungry. Bad.
