I don't get your point. Can you elaborate?

Scott, you've repeatedly called it Silicone (rhymes with phone) Valley Bank but it's Silcon (rhymes with lawn) Valley Bank. Silicon is an element fundamental to microchips. Silicone is a compound used in old breast implants and butt plugs. Not that I don't love silicone but still, cause I respect you, you gotta get that right.

i'm on Amtrak riding past Vandenburg Airforce base where Elon launches his Space X rockets and the train doesn't have WiFi connection. No wonder our train system has no riders. How hard would it be down them to get Starlink?! If Amtrak was truly competitive it would've gotten Starlink already.

Not talking about you and others who post on what they're doing. That's high signal and more power to you. I meant those who comment and repost. I generally don't. Not because I don't value what's been posted but unless I've got something valuable to add, it feels like I'd just be trying to get attention. At least that's why I don't do it. On the other hand, I DO zap cause that feels like a real way I can contribute value to someone I support

It wouldn't be out of character for Luke to propose those but if so, why wouldn't he just use his own name. I don't see any attribution to Luke in BIP 444 but maybe I'm just missing it. Here's a link to the article that says he denies being the author

We won the cosmic lottery just by being born in the first place and we only have so many precious life minutes in this universe to enjoy it. So, I try to enjoy what I can while I can.

I asked Grok "Is more politically oriented violence perpetrated by right wingers or left wingers?" Here's what it said:
Overview
Political violence, including terrorism and ideologically motivated attacks, is rare compared to overall violent crime but has significant societal impacts due to its targeting of symbols, leaders, and communities. Based on comprehensive data from sources like the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the University of Maryland’s START consortium, and the Cato Institute, right-wing extremists (e.g., white supremacists, anti-government militias) have perpetrated more incidents and fatalities than left-wing extremists (e.g., anarchists, anti-fascists) in the United States over the past decade, including through 2025. Globally, Islamist extremism often exceeds both in lethality, but between left- and right-wing, right-wing violence is more prevalent and deadly in Western contexts.
