There are more people in the US who get a tarot card reading each month than pay for an AI subscription.

I wouldn't take an electric car if it was given to me. I don't want those batteries anywhere near where I sleep or where my family sleeps.

Because as Gen X, we’re the ones who watched purchasing power take a ~30% hit over the past six years right as retirement got close enough to matter. Everyone else is too young to understand or too old to care.
Share of Americans who say they’re on track for retirement, per Goldman Sachs: Gen Z: 66% Millennials: 61% Boomers: 60% Gen X: 49% Gen X is the only generation where fewer than half feel on track.

Earlier this year, I left a high-paying job for an entry-level one. Avoiding getting robbed by taxes wasn’t the reason - but it’s been a nice side benefit. I’m done paying for everyone else’s shit.

Why do people believe they need all these buttons? Because they drive dumb cars with poorly designed infotainment systems. There is a better way, but you need a better car first.

What happened to Twitter can happen to America. Only Elon can't buy it to save us. Get out and vote.
My biggest concern is that if there is a clean sweep by Democrats of the House, Senate and Presidency in 2028, they will: 1. Make DC and Puerto Rico states to gain a strong majority in the Senate. 2. Open the borders and legalize everyone living in America illegally to cement a permanent majority. 3. Increase the size of the Supreme Court to gain an immediate majority. This would result in America becoming a permanent one-party state and the end of democracy in any meaningful sense of the word. All that is needed to ensure this doesn’t happen is 51 Republican senators in 2029. That is why you should vote for Republican senators this election. Other reasons are irrelevant compared to this one.

Around 4 billion modern solar panels (roughly a 100-by-100-mile array, or about 10,000 square miles) in a sunny Southwest location could theoretically generate enough annual electricity to cover current U.S. demand.
Once farmland is covered in concrete and solar panels, it’s gone forever. Let’s put solar panels on mall roofs and parking lots — not on the land that feeds America.

Working in the legacy automotive industry, I can’t help but feel pity for my colleagues and customers. They have no clue what’s about to happen to us all. In meetings, I feel surrounded by zombies.
