Tears of joy. Tears of an Olympian. With pride in his heart, gold medalist Caeleb Dressel listens to the National Anthem. #TokyoOlympics x @TeamUSA

Thanks for waiting until after the qualifier! @Sc2Team

Here come the shorty apologists Give them no respect Get Shorty

Even Discord has gone corpo …

Please leave the merit-based, incredibly fair and rational system of capital known as "Wall Street" alone. This just isn't fair what is being done to them:

@TheBabylonBee A lot of people are going to be super unhappy with West Coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech

This accurately describes the overarching political reality in the United States:

Social media & the press are currently incentivized to drastically exaggerate narratives of division. This in turn creates more division & the downward spiral continues. I hope to build tech that changes these incentives. I believe there is much more love than hate in the world.

I have waited 55 years to see the richest man in the world stick it to “The Richest Man...IN THE WORLD!” Also: imagine that the world’s wealthiest person can solve differential equations and knows what a Lagrangian is. Love this. Mazal tov to @elonmusk for not giving a shit.

The previous two days were Kristallnacht and today is Veteran’s day. In order to prevent evil you must be willing to fight. God bless soldiers who fight for goodness and freedom and God bless America.

Thank you to all of our veterans. We can never repay you for your service to our nation.

If y'all want to move to Canada, please get going

Heavy is the head that wears the journalist hat:

NEW — U.S. Senator Josh Hawley has formally requested @Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and @Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to appear before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime and Terrorism in a coming hearing titled "Digital Platforms and Election Interference.”

I intend to move forward with an @FCC rulemaking to clarify the meaning of #Section230. Read my full statement below.

The debate format is clearly broken. The primary debates showed it. The first presidential debate proved it. Several 3+ hour podcast conversations would be much more effective at getting to the core of each candidate, exploring the depth of their character and their ideas.
