Replying to @elonmusk
Installed tooling to build 125k Cybertrucks a year. Sold 70k over 3 years. Spent $2bn on research and development. Made just $100m in gross profits from sales. Net project loss of $1.9bn Genius.

Dear Black women, Stop asking for a seat at these people’s table, proximity to whiteness is not a privilege or a flex. You shouldn’t wanna be anywhere you’re not welcome.

One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked. Footage from an Israeli aircraft shows thousands of starving Palestinians running towards an aid truck, before it bombs and kills them all. A video that the world must never forget.

and people wonder why it’s hard for black people to own homes, get jobs, and just generally move ahead in life. this is the type of undercover animosity we have to deal with and then we’re told that we should forgive these people if they said they’ve changed…🤔
UPDATE: The couple's attorney, Kenneth Mollins, says Douglas Elliman has fired the real estate agent. ## A Long Island couple is suing after they said they received a text message from a real estate agent while searching for an apartment in Queens that said, “ugh they are black.” According to the lawsuit, the realtor apparently texted the couple instead of the owner of the apartment in Flushing. Lisa Renee Olaso said she and her fiancé had driven up from Delaware to view the apartment, as they were relocating to New York. They have since found a home in Commack. She said she received the text message as they were getting out of the car to meet the agent. When she confronted the agent, the agent tried to unsend the message but was unable to. She said the agent apologized, “and I appreciate that, but it doesn’t change the pain.” “It doesn’t take away people who on social media had to read that and see that we’re still having to deal with this unnecessary discrimination, prejudice and racism in 2026,” she said. The couple said they’re not looking for money but for their story to be told. “This is why I wanted to talk to an attorney to just see if there is any way to avoid anyone feeling the way I feel right now and the way that I felt when that took place,” Olaso said. The lawsuit was filed in Queens alleging violations of state and federal discrimination laws. 1010 WINS has reached out to the realtor and her company for comment but has not heard back. 🎤 Sophia Hall reports 📸 Sophia Hall 🎤 @sophiabhall1 reports 📸 Sophia Hall

They are insane in the USA, the cops use lethal force for no reason and everyone just accepts it. Even Nazi Germany wasn't this bad.
A police officer opened fire on a teenager who was sitting in his car eating a burger. The teen’s family is now demanding $20 million over the shooting.

Police punch defenseless Black woman—knock her out completely unconscious. She was already handcuffed at the time. She lay motionless on sidewalk for a full minute—before officer picks her up like a rag doll. Officer heard claiming the 120lb woman was "a threat"—even though handcuffed. A report says location of incident was near 44th Precinct in the Bronx, New York—but that had not been officially confirmed. Storytimewit40orty⁠ doesn’t have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

The world has taught Israelis that rules and laws don’t apply to them. So they act like it
#Breaking: European diplomats, including French and Polish representatives, who went to the West Bank to observe the olive harvest, have been violently assaulted by Israeli settlers.

Never thought I’d live to see the day where US mainstream media tells the truth about Israel.
With Israel’s election two weeks away, Lesley Stahl travels to the West Bank, where militant Israeli settlers have carried out violent attacks against the Palestinians, often with impunity. The Israeli government is showing an unwillingness to crack down on the violence. Tonight on 60 Minutes.

41 states charge for what is known as cell rent. And even if you parole out early states like Florida will make you pay the TOTALITY per day of your original stay. One Black woman was billed $127,000 ($50 a day for 2,555 days) for the full seven years of her sentence despite only staying 10 months
A prison charging for rent and utilities is insane

Ukraine just hit another Yandex data center inside Russia, and Cloudflare data shows automated traffic coming from Yandex’s network has collapsed to roughly 0.4% of its recent peak. For some perspective, researchers have previously estimated that bots generated roughly 21–29% of U.S. Twitter content. With the U.S. midterms just weeks away, the timing is pretty interesting.

Scientists are losing their minds over this paper. They proved every mitochondria in your body is a tiny quantum device running at 71 THz. And it responds to light. Researchers detected a mysterious 71.0-terahertz vibration signal. this frequency is only present in healthy, living cells and tissues. exact moment the cell dies or the mitochondrial structures are broken apart, the signal vanishes completely. How does this happen? Classical physics has always struggled to explain the high energy-efficiency of life. So the team built a quantum model of light-matter coupling and discovered something called a "mito-polariton". It is a literal quantum superposition state that forms when light couples with lipid ch2 bonds inside functional mitochondria. This quantum resonance splits the intrinsic vibration mode into two levels, creating that bizarre 71 thz frequency that you only see in living things. Why does this matter? Because this quantum state actually acts as a highly efficient channel to modulate atp production in living cells. our bodies literally use quantum mechanics to generate the energy that keeps us alive.
