That $366 million Elon is spending to try and convince voters that Congress should stay Republican? It's more money than McCain's 2008 campaign spent. But it's also, relative to Musk's net worth, the same as a household at the median income spending $32.

I've been saying this for awhile: AI is like using a forklift to go to the gym and lift weights. Yes the machine is stronger than you and can lift many times what you can faster and more efficiently, but that's not why you go to the gym.

I had to buy a bath ceiling fan about a year ago. I wanted: no AI, no Bluetooth, no remote control. It shrank the field from like 200 option to .. two. So I sat there: the brown or the silver? This is actually a tolerable decision!

Siri randomly seems to turn on on my computer lately and at least it seems to respond to “fuck off”

💯

I want them all to go to reeducation camps and read books and learn to appreciate art ✨

The solution is to only have analog devices. Join me in: Light switches that last your whole lifetime! Doorbells that go: bong bong and live in a closet and refrigerators that mind their own business ✨

that's why I left too. physical threats are real. I'm pretty perplexed about how to react to lefties lately who are like: "we all get death threats, find your strength." Like... no. I don't feel that's a reasonable way for us to live. OTOH, I'm mad at GOP dudes afraid of the MAGA mob. Confusing.

this is so funny. "without access to data centers" you know, I just might bust through your living room wall like the Kool-Aid guy—without access to a big bowl of gold doubloons. Think about it!

The most indebted corporations in America right now are, at their core, computer virus companies. They think the computer viruses are their girlfriends, so they think this absolves them of guilt. Let's find out!

this is like Bonfire of the Vanities villainy. Except in fiction these idiots would feel bad and there would be repercussions. But in our world Texan voters are just like: Don't care about Uvalde, don't care about our girls washed away in climate-change-plus-corruption floods, I just love Ted Cruz!

Trump lies on behalf of Putin and Xi. The weakest American president ever.

Ken Paxton is a scumbag and a criminal. Which is why Trump endorsed him.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is fundamentally about: How randomness is real, and the most random thing ever possible is that the Earth, and flamingos, and you and me found each other. It’s a hallelujah about loving the earth. And Silicon Valley missed the point.

That makes me happy. In thanks I give to you a bouquet of fall leaves 💛

That’s such silly sophistry. So teakettles are Mars because they’re both made of elements. This is so truly unserious.

These AI bros will never escape the accusation that they are, at core, helpless nerds. The reason you sit around stoned in high school asking: "Am I my hand?" is bc you are supposed to blunder into the difference between thinking, feeling, and bullshitting. Partying is good and serves a purpose!
