Elon Musk and CNN. From everything I have seen where Elon is involved in. He has a different world view and out of the box solutions. I predict that when it comes to the take over of CNN, he will make drastic changes to the way the news is reported. Possibly more in-depth journalism digging deeper into the subjects concerning everyday Americans, with lots of stories more positive, interesting, informative, and most importantly truthful!! Looking forward to this!!

From an X account: I'm going to say something that might upset a lot of people, but oh well. I believe that a part of our society is losing something far more serious than its economic competitiveness. It's losing its ability to dream. Yesterday, Tesla put on a spectacular demonstration around a car capable of leaving the ground. A prototype, sure, not yet the flying car from Back to the Future. But still, damn it. We're talking about technologies that seemed straight out of science fiction when we were kids. And this morning, looking at some French reactions, what do I discover? "It's useless." "Musk is a racist." "It doesn't solve the charging problems." "It doesn't erase his Nazi salutes." But seriously, what the hell happened to us? At what point did we lose that childlike spirit that made us open our eyes wide in front of an invention? And the saddest part of all this is that we've apparently forgotten our own history. France is the country of the Lumière brothers, who helped give birth to cinema. It's the country of Louis Pasteur, whose work revolutionized microbiology and vaccination. It's the country of Nicéphore Niépce, a pioneer of photography. It's the country of the Montgolfier brothers, who sent humans into the air aboard a hot-air balloon. It's the country of Blaise Pascal, who was already designing a calculating machine in the 17th century. It's also the country of the TGV, and one of the two countries that gave birth to the Concorde. Can you imagine what these inventions represented in their time? Humans who dared to accomplish what many thought impossible. People who wouldn't accept the limits of their era. Visionaries, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs who wanted to push back the boundaries of reality. We were that country. So how did we reach a point where our first instinct in the face of the extraordinary sometimes seems to be to look for reasons to despise it? SpaceX recovers rockets that come back and land on Earth? We immediately start talking about Elon Musk and his provocations. Humanoid robots start performing increasingly complex physical tasks? "That'll destroy jobs." AI opens up gigantic possibilities for medicine, science, education, and creation? "It pollutes, it steals artists' work, it's for cheating." An entrepreneur announces he wants to achieve something incredible? "Another billionaire looking to line his pockets." But do we even realize what's happening? We're living in an era where reusable rockets land after their missions, where AI accelerates certain scientific discoveries, where robots learn to navigate our world, where lone individuals start creating things that used to require entire teams. And in the face of all that, have we become incapable of simply saying: "Holy shit, that's incredible. How the hell did they pull that off?" I'm not asking for blind admiration of billionaires. Nor for turning a blind eye to the social, environmental, or political consequences of their projects. We can condemn Elon Musk's statements while recognizing the feats of the engineers at SpaceX and Tesla. We can defend workers while finding robotics fascinating. We can want to regulate AI while being amazed by its possibilities. Critical thinking has never forced anyone to become cynical. And it's precisely this cynicism that despairs me. Sometimes I feel like we've replaced wonder with jealousy, the taste for risk with fear of failure, ambition with suspicion, and dreaming with sarcasm. teapaw.org/futurlucide/status/211…
Je vais dire quelque chose qui risque de déplaire à beaucoup de monde, mais tant pis. Je crois qu’une partie de notre société est en train de perdre quelque chose de bien plus grave que sa compétitivité économique. Elle est en train de perdre sa capacité à rêver. Hier, Tesla a présenté une démonstration spectaculaire autour d’une voiture capable de quitter le sol. Un prototype, certes, pas encore la voiture volante de Retour vers le futur. Mais quand même, bordel. On parle de technologies qui semblaient relever de la science-fiction quand nous étions gamins. Et ce matin, en regardant certaines réactions françaises, qu’est-ce que je découvre ? « Ça sert à rien. » « Musk est un raciste. » « Ça ne règle pas les problèmes de recharge. » « Ça n’efface pas ses saluts nazis. » Mais sérieusement, qu’est-ce qui nous est arrivé ? À quel moment avons-nous perdu cette âme d’enfant qui nous faisait ouvrir grand les yeux devant une invention ? Et le plus triste dans tout ça, c’est qu’on semble avoir oublié notre propre histoire. La France, c’est le pays des frères Lumière, qui ont contribué à faire naître le cinéma. C’est le pays de Louis Pasteur, dont les travaux ont révolutionné la microbiologie et la vaccination. C’est le pays de Nicéphore Niépce, pionnier de la photographie. C’est le pays des frères Montgolfier, qui ont envoyé l’être humain dans les airs à bord d’une montgolfière. C’est le pays de Blaise Pascal, qui concevait déjà une machine à calculer au XVIIe siècle. C’est aussi le pays du TGV, et l’un des deux pays qui ont donné naissance au Concorde. Vous imaginez ce que représentaient ces inventions à leur époque ? Des humains qui osaient accomplir ce que beaucoup pensaient impossible. Des gens qui n’acceptaient pas les limites de leur temps. Des visionnaires, des ingénieurs, des scientifiques, des entrepreneurs qui voulaient repousser les frontières du réel. Nous avons été ce pays-là. Alors comment avons-nous pu en arriver à un point où notre premier réflexe devant l’extraordinaire semble parfois être de chercher pourquoi il faudrait le mépriser ? SpaceX récupère des fusées qui reviennent se poser sur Terre ? On parle immédiatement d’Elon Musk et de ses provocations. Des robots humanoïdes commencent à réaliser des tâches physiques de plus en plus complexes ? « Ça va détruire des emplois. » L’IA ouvre des perspectives gigantesques pour la médecine, la science, l’éducation et la création ? « Ça pollue, ça vole le travail des artistes, ça sert à tricher. » Un entrepreneur annonce vouloir réaliser quelque chose d’incroyable ? « Encore un milliardaire qui veut s’en mettre plein les poches. » Mais est-ce qu’on réalise seulement ce qui est en train de se passer ? Nous vivons une époque où des fusées réutilisables se posent après leur mission, où l’IA accélère certaines découvertes scientifiques, où des robots apprennent à évoluer dans notre monde, où des personnes seules commencent à créer des choses qui nécessitaient auparavant des équipes entières. Et devant tout ça, on serait devenus incapables de dire simplement : « Putain, c’est incroyable. Comment est-ce qu’ils ont réussi ça ? » Je ne demande pas qu’on admire aveuglément les milliardaires. Ni qu’on ferme les yeux sur les conséquences sociales, environnementales ou politiques de leurs projets. On peut condamner les propos d’Elon Musk tout en reconnaissant les prouesses des ingénieurs de SpaceX et de Tesla. On peut défendre les travailleurs tout en trouvant la robotique fascinante. On peut vouloir encadrer l’IA tout en étant émerveillé par ses possibilités. L’esprit critique n’a jamais obligé personne à devenir cynique. Et c’est justement ce cynisme qui me désespère. J’ai parfois l’impression qu’on a remplacé l’admiration par la jalousie, le goût du risque par la peur de l’échec, l’ambition par la suspicion et le rêve par le sarcasme.

For those on the right and those on the left. Symbolism of Right and Left in the Bible Right Hand •Power and Authority: The right hand is often associated with strength and divine favor. It signifies God's power, as seen in Exodus 15:6, where God's right hand is described as majestic in power. •Place of Honor: In the New Testament, Jesus is depicted as sitting at the right hand of God, indicating His exalted status (Mark 16:19). This position symbolizes righteousness and moral integrity. •Divine Approval: In Matthew 25:33, the righteous are placed on the right, representing God's blessing and approval. Left Hand •Lesser Honor: The left hand typically symbolizes disfavor or lesser status. While not inherently negative, it contrasts with the right to highlight the virtues associated with the right. •Representation of the Unrighteous: In the same parable from Matthew 25:41, those on the left are described as the goats, representing those who are not favored by God. •Secrecy and Discretion: The left hand can also imply humility, as illustrated in Matthew 6:3, where Jesus advises not to let the left hand know what the right hand is doing when giving to the needy. Cultural and Theological Implications The biblical distinction between right and left extends beyond mere directional indicators. It reflects broader themes of divine authority, moral values, and the nature of human relationships with God. The right hand embodies power and righteousness, while the left serves as a counterpoint, emphasizing the importance of humility and moral integrity.

thepostmillennial.com/reveal… @grok how many gun related homicides were in the United States? Use the newest data from the FBI. How many MAID deaths were in Canada? Use the newest data. Extrapolate those figures into a per-capita basis. Answer: “FBI 2025 data: estimated 14,085 total murders, firearms used in 72.3% (~10,183 gun homicides). Canada Health 2024 MAID: 16,499 (newest full official). Per capita: US (~342M pop) ~3.0/100k. Canada (~41.5M) ~39.8/100k.”” (Emphasis added, because holy crap.)
