What did you get done this week, Scott?
Elon has long hated public transit, which he thinks carries a bunch of “serial killers.” He instead wants everyone to drive a car (preferably a Tesla). Now he has government power & is trying to kill off CA’s high speed rail project. It’s called killing off the competition. 🧵

Heartbreaking to watch. If you are not completely outraged by an American citizen being executed point blank by a terrorist organization you are anti-American
Rachel Goldberg-Polin: "Ok sweet boy, go now on your journey. I hope it's as good as the trips you dreamed about because finally, my sweet boy, finally, finally, finally, finally you are free. I will love you and I will miss you every single day for the rest of my life, but you're right here. I know you're right here. I just have to teach myself how to feel you in a different way. And Hersh there is one last thing I need you to do for us. Now I need you to help us stay strong and I need you to help us survive"

What would it look like if you made making decisions about spending money in your company smarter and multiplayer? That is what @blader is building. Could you make 100 to 1,000 smarter decisions if you had Figma but for your finances? youtu.be/liQjgV9ZT24?si=0iv3…

Drop everything and try out @runwayco - if @blader is working on it, I guarantee it's amazing!
we spent the last four years reimagining what finance can be, unburdened by what has been. runway makes clear the significance of the passage of time in the context of all in which your business lives and what came before you. this is the result 👇

Crazy to think that all of academia could have continued to churn out endlessly plagiarized papers if only they’d had the good sense to be more low-key about their antisemitism.

Honestly I didn’t think I could respect Harvard less than I did yesterday.
Harvard just announced the creation of an official "task force" -- not to help Jewish students facing calls for genocide from their fellow students, but to help the students *calling for genocide.* Harvard is beyond sick. thecrimson.com/article/2023/…

Stonks is now becoming @sandhill_mkts 😎 Same BS content, more serious investing. Announcing 2 new co-founders @StonkyOli (he's amazing, tech lead) and Sandy the Crane (dubious value, but team player). Sandy was pitching earlier this week to @m2jr & @ericries 👇

The most entertaining outcome would be if this poll is just a honeypot for people that are going to be banned.
Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.
