'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)
An embroidery hoop containing a sewn landscape from above. It shows a forest on the right, a line of fire and charred ground with smoke on the left. The smoke is felted wool.

Starlink makes money, but it topped out and has to discount for new subscribers, ARPU fell from $99 to $66. On the rocket side, customer launches collapsed from 43 to 7 in a quarter (revenue -42%), the rockets mostly carry SpaceX's own satellites now. MechaHitler incinerates all profits anyway. /6
Bar chart of SpaceX's fiscal 2025 operating income by segment. Starlink shows a positive bar at $4.4 billion (green); the AI segment (xAI/X) shows a negative bar at minus $6.4 billion (red). A footnote notes the AI segment's losses exceed everything the rest of the company earns, with Q1 2026 losses annualizing to roughly $10 billion.

I'm supposed to say SpaceX was profitable in 2024, but it wasn't, that $791M profit included a $659M non-cash tax benefit, fully reversed in 2025. Operating income: +$466M ('24), -$2.6B ('25), -$1.9B (Q1 '26). Net loss: $4.9B last year, $4.3B in Q1 2026 alone, all to poison Black neighborhoods. /3
Bar chart of SpaceX operating income across three periods: positive $0.47 billion in fiscal 2024 (green), negative $2.6 billion in fiscal 2025 (red), and negative $1.9 billion in just the first quarter of 2026 (red). A footnote states that 2024's reported net profit relied on a $659 million non-cash tax benefit that was reversed in 2025.

SpaceX's $1.8T "valuation" isn't real, it's manufactured by a tiny 4.2% public float. $1.8T is ~95x SpaceX's trailing revenue. Google IPO'd at ~7x revenue, Facebook at ~20x. This is Snowflake's multiple stapled to Rivian's capital burn, a combo with a flawless record of bagholders. /2

Whichever front end designer or TPM who came up with the idea to call healthcare user accounts "patient portals" I HATE you with all the rage I can muster. Every FUCKING time my mom gets a new doctor the fucking drama I have to go through to get her to understand the "pore-tul" is just her login.

I don't know what this cold I've had for the last week is (started with fever and congestion, then developed a cough, and now light is giving me migraines) but I hate it. And daily covid tests are telling me it's not covid but we all know how that means fuck all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've had this shot in my head for years. Anyone who has ever driven down past the pea soup place in Santa Nella, California has probably thought "why is there a vista point 15 miles to the north? It's not that pretty. It smells like urine." I knew that it's THE spot to get the milky way above I5🧵
