It’s called White Lotus, T. It’s on HBO like our show but I’m still alive in this one. I finally get to have a midlife crisis now.

Interesting report this morning from @RaleighReporter of @NC_Tribune. Quite the diverse set of political investments into NC from #FTX execs.

Look. The site is gonna stay up but the spell is broken. He'll let Trump back in then he'll kick him off and the NYT will cover it in all caps. There'll be another private jet handjob horse bribe incident. He'll make Calacanis CEO and fire him. &c. Everyone will care less daily.

A majority of Republican voters also support anti-gerrymandering reform, gun safety laws and Medicaid expansion. And yet it doesn't matter, because their leaders and entrenched party interests don't care. Same is true with same-sex marriage.

A hard-right faction took control of the 4th-largest school district in South Carolina last night and immediately got to work smashing anything that wasn’t nailed to the floor.

Listen: I don't expect everyone to love reading and books as much as I do.
But imagine declaring publicly you think books are a waste of time.
It's like saying you don't have any use for fruits and vegetables. Might be true. But bragging about it...?

Pretty remarkable — didn't say surprising! — that he would claim this. Anyone who knows a thing about the subject knows that it's false by a mile. https://teapawt.org/t.co/iFH3PR8zhV I'll admit: I do not understand how a "flood the zone with sh*t" approach helps him out of any of his jams.

Facebook lays off 11,000 employees and its a distant third biggest tech story of the week. If Twitter still had a comms staff, the FB team would owe them drinks.

Call me crazy, but maybe a generation that grew up with active shooter drills is not going to vote for a party that routinely runs ads with candidates shooting assualt rifles. And maybe they aren’t going to vote for the party that took away basic rights their mothers had.

Problem: US healthcare is broken.
Solution: Build a for-profit company that will generate trillions of dollars in value for its shareholders, all of which will come from payment for healthcare
1/We think the biggest company in the world will be a consumer health tech company. Four of the top five biggest companies in the world are consumer companies, and healthcare is one of the nation’s biggest industries. @daisydwolf @a16z @a16zBioHealth

The scenes of jubilation in Kherson are remarkable, and should be of no surprise considering how fiercely the city resisted the Russian occupation. The bravery on display in Kherson back in March was incredible, as the clips below show. They never stopped fighting.
