$SPCX - SPACEX PLANS MOON FACTORIES POWERED BY HUMANOID ROBOTS
What I think people closer to the marketing industry could see very early that is now becoming painfully clear to everyone is that OpenAI and Anthropic are less tech companies than they are PR/comms/lobbying companies that happen to own a tech product. This is classic spin covering a bad product:
“What we need to explain to the world: Number one, we are close to creating a genie that can grant any wish. Number two, we are going to make sure that our first wishes broadly benefit humanity” - Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI — This is definitely the opposite of Anthropic’s AI kills all jobs pitch.
Why do so many people turn their phone over (face down) when using it to tap-to-pay? Is this just a bizarre side effect of skeuomorphism where people think the card is physically in the screen? Was there some bad tech demo that people got thrown off by?
If Dimes Square was shorthand for the downtown post-ironic horseshoe'd to right wing Substack glitterati, I think we should start using Hudson Square as shorthand for the new wave AI accelerationist Palantir chore coat wearing bag chasers
For so long I thought F1 was the most deeply unserious sport, but no, every four years I am reminded... it is soccer.
Was setting up ads directly in Meta Business Manager for the first time in a long while yesterday and holy shit the amount of "AI enhancements" they try and force on to you every step of the way is astounding. Started making a lot more sense why there is such a glut of slop ads on Instagram now.
Trans rights are human rights, political funding should not tip the scales of American democracy, and the constitution says what it says. Other than that, I'd simply remind my friends to not post anything they wouldn't want to see quoted on Fox News tonight. (That's what the group chat is for.)
44% of social marketers think their boss doesn't understand social. Instagram is still the number one priority for social teams. A lot of teams want to create serialized video. All this and more in Pt. 1 of the results from Link in Bio's annual vibe check survey: www.linkinbio.news/p/social-med...

The good shit. It’s hard to explain the energy in the city the last few weeks. The rallying cries, high-fives, nods, and “yerrs.” The feeling in the air that great things are possible. All I can offer this morning is a sincere thank you. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/14/n...

Having a great time in all these new group chats with my friends! They're all here too, just out of frame.
Just saw someone doing DoorDash deliveries in a polychromic painted Cybertruck
Lol would you pay $2.99 per month to... change the font on your Instagram bio?
Meta is rolling out paid subscription plans for Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp worldwide, while also testing new AI, creator, and business-focused offerings under its broader “Meta One” subscription brand.
The only take I have on the Ferrari/Jony Ive EV is that they should have never branded it/badged it as Ferrari and used this opportunity to start an EV sub-brand instead. The car looks _ok_ I guess, but it definitely doesn't "look like a Ferrari."
The new boomerslop trend of using AI to generate anti-AI comics is truly the lowest rung of engagement bait on this or any other social media platform.
Extremely sudden loss. Busch won a race just last weekend and I think it was only announced he'd been hospitalized earlier today. His stat line is unrivaled. A helluva driver with an elbows out style. RIP.
Breaking News from @theathletic.com: Kyle Busch, one of NASCAR’s top drivers, has died at 41 after an illness.
For the first time since 2020 I am flying somewhere for a meeting and flying back in the same day. I’ll be on the ground for less than 8 hours. This feels doubly neolithic considering I was on a video conference with the same people for two hours yesterday.
Before the show the people behind me were trying to teach their friend what mpreg is (but had to start with slash fic first), after the show there is a line of people waiting to take a selfie with a connection conspiracy board of people named in the Epstein files. Well done @garbageday.email.
