Big boss says it’s okay to post, so some news: I am scouting for a new fund! We have appetite where others don’t. I have an extremely high tolerance for Insane Ideas. If you keep hearing no, or if you’re working on novel, weird, high risk, frontier stuff, I am Here To Listen

I know we're all familiar with the "we built the torment nexus from the classic sci-fi novel, do not build the torment nexus" but like, what if the torment nexus was cool as hell?

I'm a little woozy, like when you get seasick. Futuresick maybe

You’re telling me Archer Fast was born on a highway? Nominative determinism is awesome

This inversion won’t hold forever, it’s not sustainable, but within this we’ve created ipad babies and egirls, posters in the white house, culture full of derivative laundered internetisms, and people that live in the 12 inch physical space between their hand and their face

Many people are asking me, birb what is this? What is the foid report? And to be honest with you, I kind of thought it was pretty clear if you read it that I have no idea what it is either

“Happy Birthday America”

Six years ago yesterday, a guy I had been DMing on twitter but had never met IRL picked me up from the airport after moving his stuff into my place. Happy anniversary to the only guy I know who loves insane bets nearly as much as I do, I can’t believe we pulled it off 💕

scp-ass paper

hats off to @isaiah_p_taylor for doing some seriously ballsy (near-extinct) old fashioned inventor demonstration via impressive stunt. there are relatively few viable methods to fund hard tech for a young entrepreneur, and as @isaiah_p_taylor and @elonmusk exemplify, engineering to impressive stunts to steadily build up confidence in financial and operational partners is one of the best

Fiery #sunset skies following stormy skies tonight in #NYC. #NewYork #NewYorkCity

request for startup: wearables that let me blow stuff up with my mind
