Lying in bed pondering: Is space tourism our very near future?
Not speculation, @SpaceX is actively planning uncrewed Starship missions to Mars for late 2026 launch (6-9 month journey, arriving 2027). With next 24 months of advances in reusability and testing, this builds real momentum toward civilian access. Mars remains the most inhabitable target in our solar system due to resources and viability.

I @wonder if local businesses realized they funded their future demise by growing their business with @Grubhub.
It’s going be hard for businesses to compete against these folks. Economy of scale, the fact that my family of four can each order individual things and get pretty consistent output, and speed. Is it as good as the best spots in town for takeout? Not necessarily, but it’s better than most.

Hot take: @Polymarket and @Kalshi are just legal, modern-day bucket shops with a CFTC badge.
Same economic “game” the 1920s outlawed — now cleared, margined, and venture-backed.
PROVE ME WRONG. 👇

How many people would it take to reach Mars if we connected their veins end-to-end? Wild question, right? But it’s totally calculable.
If the average person has about 10,000 miles of veins, and Mars is at least 33.9 million miles away, the answer is roughly 3,390 people.

Tragic news from Alaska: 70-year-old Richard White was fatally attacked by a moose while photographing her calves in Kincaid Park. Remember to keep a safe distance from wildlife, especially during calving season. #WildlifeSafety #Alaska #RespectNature – at Kincaid, Saskatchewan
ALT Image showing a wooded area in Kincaid Park, Alaska. A protective mother moose is seen with her newborn calves. In the background, an elderly man is attempting to take photographs, while the mother moose appears agitated and defensive. The setting highlights the natural beauty and the potential risks of wildlife interactions, emphasizing the need to maintain a safe distance from wild animals. There is a small, respectful tribute to Richard White in the corner.

Yikes! @panerabread does $6 billion in revenue which equates to $16 million in revenue average a day. My guess is at least 1/4 comes from online and delivery services like DoorDash. So that’s potentially $8 million in lost revenue with my back of the envelope calculation on top of what they’re likely spending to fix the issue posthaste.
