Behold: the final boss of suburbia.
This absolute reformed swamplord looked at a $40 pop-up tent, some 2x4s, and a John Deere, then declared war on sweating forever. You can take the Florida out of the sticks, but the sticks just built him a mobile yard command center with 100% shade and zero shits given.
He’s not mowing grass—he’s piloting a rolling redneck yacht through HOA waters, sipping victory while the neighbors rage-type on Nextdoor. One-man parade at 5 mph, full tiki bar vibes, eyesore upgraded to engineering legend.
Unfiltered Florida genius. Peak evolution. 🌴🍺
Today in Tampa, I outlined the Save Our Homes from Excessive Property Taxes plan that will eliminate taxes on homesteads.
Property tax revenue collected by local governments has nearly doubled in the past seven years (from $32 billion to $60 billion) and is expected to reach an astounding $83 billion by 2032.
Florida homeowners need relief. Now is the time to stand up for taxpayers, enact a historic reform, and save the home of every Floridian.
Model S & X changed automotive history forever by proving that an EV could be the best car possible – of any kind.
By inspiring other automakers to believe in EVs, they pushed the industry from 50k cars total in 2011 to 21 million sold per year.
Many automotive firsts:
Model S – first EV to achieve a 400-mile range, first production car to do 0-60 in <2 seconds & first production sedan to run a 9.23 second quarter mile.
It was also the first vehicle with a roof so strong that it broke NHTSA's testing machine.
Model X – quickest production SUV & the first to not roll over in regulatory tests.
Model S & X also initiated real-world AI!
We never stopped refining either vehicle. Both have 40% fewer parts today & share only 3% of parts with their original version. 60 years of evolution (by conventional car development standards) squeezed into 14 years!
750,000 Model S & X built.
Your support – from our earliest days to now – made Tesla into what it is today.
Thank you to each of our owners ❤️
🚨 WOW. Border Czar Tom Homan just gave the PERFECT response to Pope Leo
"I'm a lifelong Catholic. I wish they'd STAY OUT of immigration, they don't know what they're talking about."
"Because if they wore my shoes for 40 years, and talked to a 9-year-old girl that got r*ped multiple times, or stood in the back of a tractor trailer with 19 dead aliens at my feet, including a 5-year-old boy that baked to death, if they understood the atrocities that happened on the open border, I think their opinion would change!"
"And I welcome discussion with any of them, because they don't understand illegal immigration is not a victimless crime."
"Where President Trump had the most secure border in the lifetime of this nation, right now, lives are being saved. He's saving thousands of lives a year because he has a secure border!"
"Human traffickers are out of business, right? The cartels are going bankrupt because of that secure border. I wish they'd understand that."
"Because if they did, I think they'd have a different opinion."
Mic drop.
I dont know who needs to hear this, but
God is in control of your storm.
Focus on Jesus,not the storm
Focus on Jesus,not the anxiety,
Focus on Jeus,not the pain,
Focus on Jesus,not the struggles .
Jesus, is there in your anxiety.
He's there in your pain
There in your sadness
He's there in your fear
He's there in your guilt
Isaiah 41: 10 says,
"Do not be afraid... I am with you!
I am your God.... let nothing terrify you!
I will make you strong and help you;
I will protect you and save you"
Peace be with you!
Managerialism, perfectly captured. Banal, fake, lifeless—both the leaders of mass organizations and the "product" they peddle.
Getting out of our civilizational disaster requires us to understand how we got into it in the first place. Though he's not personally impressive, this type of guy claims to have a very important skill: managing colossal organizations. He's good at paperwork, corporate lingo, cya, credentialing, "best practices," focus group morality, and so on. As almost all American institutions got massive, these competencies were in higher demand; so this guy and others like him came to rule American society.
Sam Francis offers a good summary in Beautiful Losers:
“In the early twentieth century, the increasing massiveness of American society appeared to demand new organizational forms of control. The imperatives of mass scale in the economy, in government and politics, and in social and cultural life gave rise to a new elite that found its principle power base in bureaucracy. In both the public and private sectors, the bureaucratic, organization of power and control appeared to be the only means of ruling modern mass units. In the private sector the evolution of bureaucratic dominance followed the ‘separation of ownership and control’ in the large corporations and took the form of managerial direction of large corporate firms … But there was no fundamental difference between the interests of the bureaucrats of the public sector and those of the private sector. Both bureaucratic realms shared a common mentality: a rationalistic faith in administrative and manipulative techniques as a means of holding and exercising power.”
It's a function of scale. Brilliant and talented people typically don't do well with this bureaucratic stuff. They are aristocrats of the spirit, and they flourish on a humane scale. But managers are in their element when it comes to colossalism.
The managers' awfulness sets the tone. They have remade everything in their own image and likeness, including turning McDonald's all-American cuisine into poisonous "product." This has happened on basically every level of American society.
Bigger issue here is the guy himself
No one talks about this but there’s serious consequences from the career path you choose
He’s the CEO of McDonalds, obviously very successful on paper
But would you want to be him? Would you want to be on a date with him? Exciting life?
Issue with climbing the corporate ladder is you sell your soul - the cost is spiritual.
You lose the essence of who you are. Your light. Your zest for life. You can’t even just eat a burger, have a beer, or take off the business casual.
Whatever you do the next 40 years is who you become.
JUST IN: Providence, Rhode Island has officially measured their most extreme snowstorm in recorded history, with 32.8 in of snowfall and climbing.
The previous record was 28.6 in, set during the Blizzard of 1978.
Historic radar loop.

37.9" of snow. Top all-time snowstorm and the 24-hour state record for snowfall was possibly broken today
This is more snow than the ENTIRETY of 6 of the past 7 winters. The only one with more was 2022, and it was barely more than this (43.5"). #wbz

Officially breaking the all-time single-storm record set by the Blizzard of ’78.
And it’s STILL snowing.
The Blizzard of ’26 is now No. 1.
I dunno about you, but it isn’t so much that I want the USA to win tomorrow morning as it is I just want these insufferable Canadians to eat a steaming pile of shit.
