This is BA! I love the behind the scenes! A few peeps were asking how, so I made a super quick demo of how I do it without an editor. Either “CapCut” or “Detail” as apps Video 👇

Great stuff! You deserve every penny. Not many people are willing to put in the work.

Did you hire your editor on upwork? I’ve played around with CapCut, which is impressive, but it still takes too long

That’s really compelling, extremely hard to argue with the short form content You think short form is as high impact without your current following? (Or some other critical capacity?)

American in Illinois explains what it was like leaving the Democrat Party “Explaining to my family and friends that I could not, for the life of me again, vote for a Democratic Party again was probably one of the toughest things I ever had to do. And once I made that statement publicly, like on social media and stuff like that, that's when all hell broke loose — I began to lose clients from my business. I had people calling me up talking about, they can't work with somebody who would vote for a racist or a Nazi. — This is real. But it became a matter of my morals, my values, and what I truly wanted to teach my kids. Like, yes, yes. — So business started failing. Friends who I thought were friends, family members stopped talking to me, started talking about me, and then we started having the problem. I put a Trump sticker on my car. What the hell did I do that for? In the middle of the hood with a Trump sticker — That was brave. But I did it because I gave no f*cks because I know how to fight. And surprisingly for me, more people were interested in my decision why than it was people angry with my decision why. And I began to have the opportunity to explain to people why I was making the decision that I was making and even more surprisingly, it made sense to them too.”

This is how most of my mornings go, I have so many tinies in my house. They like to get everywhere, sometimes I see them and purposely crush them, and sometimes I don’t even know I crushed them. Until I sit down and take a good look at my soles, and notice all the bloody, gooey stains on the bottoms of my feet. #giantess #giantessfeet #macrophilia

THIS 🔥 "I have self-belief. I don't listen to all the stuff that's floating around on social media. I'm not reading all the stuff, the positives and the negatives that are being said. I'm not being controlled necessarily by outside forces within society. I focus on myself. I listen to my music. I do my job. I know how to arrive and to work with people, and I'm working at getting better every day. And so I don't stress about the stuff that is out of my control."

Chris Camillo says AI is accelerating so fast that going to school might not be worth it anymore "One of my kids is 16 years old and he drives himself to school, and one day he slept in and I was so astonished. I was like, how is that even possible? If I would have done that as a kid, the thought of what my parents would have done to me" "But there was a part of me in the back of my head, does it even matter anymore? I'm looking at my kid going to school and I am like, why are you even in school? I know I can't say that to them, but does any of this really matter at all right now? The world is moving so quickly that the stuff you're learning is just too slow"

Without the love of Christ, I would have committed suicide after losing $10M in months... here's the story I didn't talk about this in the first video, because it's honestly too painful, but there was one day I almost ended my life, even while believing God is real. I yelled at him and told him I hated the world he created while I was driving to find a cliff to jump from. I'm not married, I don't have kids, that $10M portfolio was what I was building with my life. I had three siblings working for me and I had to let all three go, leaving over half my family jobless. So it felt like I had lost everything, let everyone I cared for down, and life was meaningless. But Jesus showed me his love like I never had felt before in one of my weakest moments, the desire to kill myself went away COMPLETELY in a split second and I broke down in tears. The feeling was like being hugged by all my loved ones at once. My old Christian missionary parents told me later that they had started praying for me at that exact moment, "The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." I now know that this is only the beginning. My faith was once a largely intellectual faith, now it is also visceral, raw, emotional, and I am full of the joy of my salvation in an indescribable way, even despite my circumstances. If I wanted to take my own life on my own, but Jesus saved me, the rest of my life belongs to Him in every way. I started crying even now as I write this, thinking back on that day. How hopeless I felt before I felt the presence and love of Jesus. No I won't be perfect going forward, but my Savior is perfect and his power is made perfect in our weakness. To everyone in the comments, of course I know I made MANY mistakes and was trying to rush to $1B way too fast. I was full of greed and serving mainly money. And I'm sorry if anyone lost money following my posts. However, I am certain that even my wandering has all been a part of God's plan. And if it is part of God's plan that I ever recover my worldly wealth (for my actual wealth is greater now than it has EVER been) and I reach a number like $10M again, it is His, not mine. And I will not share it or promote my own glory anymore. Because it's not my money to promote myself with, everything I have is God's to use on what's close to His heart. If I have food and clothing and a place to sleep most nights, AND the love of Christ is in me (the engine that now drives everything), I'm truly content. I'm done using my X and YouTube accounts to promote myself, my worldly opinions and my own glory. Lord Jesus, help me from now on to glorify your name alone, for you alone are worthy. Amen. Love you all. And no problem if you want to unfollow, I understand that. "For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." ❤️

Since posting videos on xTwitter is like a fire and forget. and they get buried in your timeline somewhere, I thought about an interim solution for listing all the videos. It seems that the Highlights tab on my profile was never used by me. So I went through my timeline and added all my videos I wanted to be found quickly and/or be able to browse through by anybody else quickly. So to watch any of my xTwitter uploaded videos, check this link here

Yesterday, 50 years ago, I was forced to leave everything I had ever known behind. In the dark haze of the morning, my family and I fled as everything around us crumbled. Saigon had fallen, and so had the lives my family had built for us. Fortunate to be embraced by American kindness and opportunity, I earned my place as an American and Texan. Ever since arriving in this great state so many years ago, I never took for granted this blessing of freedom, opportunity, and compassion. From my first job in the United States as a busboy to being a member of the greatest state legislature in the nation, I serve, I speak, I fight for freedom and opportunity because it is never guaranteed. I commit to the values of this state and nation for my family, for my lost land, for my children and yours, and to always be that light in the darkness that is communism. #txlege

Charles on why he doesn't go on social media anymore: "For many years, I was online a lot in general, but I realized that it changed the perception of certain performances I had in races, because all it took was one good or bad moment in my race, and everything else was kind of forgotten. And yes, that made me change my approach to social media a bit. Now I obviously choose all the photos, all the captions, because the important thing for me is that social media must always be something genuine. But I'm not on social media anymore because today, everything is commented on, good or bad, and for me, that affects me a bit. I preferred to leave it aside. So, I don't go on social media anymore."

JOE ROGAN: MY BRAIN WENT SUPERHUMAN ON THE CARNIVORE DIET “The best I ever felt all throughout the day was when I was on the carnivore diet. One of the things that I saw immediately for 7, 8 days, I ate nothing but meat and eggs and fat and bacon and nothing else. My brain was working so much better, it was like I had more access to my ability to form sentences, I was thinking clearer, it was more effortless to have conversations. This is like me at my optimum.” Source: Joe Rogan

Ten years ago this month I was a landscaper of eleven years. For that entire time I made only $10 an hour. I often worked sun up to sundown. In the wintertime I drove a snow plow. If it didn’t snow, I didn’t work. One Christmas I had to do Toys for Tots so my kids had stuff under the tree. In my spare time I made funny content on the internet. I had been doing comedy on YouTube since 2007. One day I set up my camera and convinced Ford owners they were gay. I got my first million views and the rest is history. Thank you all for being so good to me. Without you there’d be no me. I pinch myself every day.

I don’t care how long it takes or how many people roast me, I will learn and I will figure it out. I will share what I am proud of and what I might be skeptical about. I will learn to look past the criticism. I will continue experimenting. I will give myself all the grace in the world. Fitness has become a gateway to so many possibilities for me. At some point it was rap, then it was academia, then investing and now it’s this. I will double down on these things because they offer me so much. PS: I wasn’t aware of the dangers of weighted dips and my form. I learned so much from the gym community. And this is my attempt after the many conversations I had on my previous post on dips. Please continue to hold no punches 🫡

A year ago, I received a letter from UnitedHealthcare that was meant to scare me into silence. I documented parts of the last year that I haven’t shared before. That morning, as I processed the shock of what was happening on my drive to the hospital, I turned on my phone and started recording. As I spoke to you, my resolve developed. I knew what I had to do. I had to stand up for the truth, my patients, and myself. Even though I was terrified, I found peace and purpose in that moment. Days later, when I shared the threatening letter with you all, you stood with me. I know we are far from done, but I share this now to remind you of the good we can do together.

I pay attention to my visions, my insights. "Salesforce started because I was swimming with a pod of dolphins outside the coast of Hawaii, where I live. About 100 dolphins. I was one with the pod. And when I was one with the pod, all of a sudden in my mind, I saw this vision of what Salesforce could look like." "I went to Larry Ellison and said, 'Hey I think I'm going to quit my job.' He gave me $2 million, and we started Salesforce. That was 26 years ago."

Short Story When Wayne was in India for the FIFA WORLD CUP, I had the honor to meet him with some of my fellow reds. Dint get to talk to him much as we all were short on time. But I spoke with his brother in law who was with him and he told me that he had shown the video to Wazza and they all loved it. One of my fav videos of all time, the collab with Adam McKola Priyank was legendary ✌️

Sometime in August 2022, during my final year at UNN, I was representing the school football team in the High Institutions Football League (HIFL). We had 25 registered players, and I worked relentlessly to hold down my position as the DMF throughout the tournament. I started and played every single game. When the final was announced and we were told it would be aired on DSTV, I told everyone I know, my family, my friends, my coursemates, my crush, that I’d be playing live on TV by 4 p.m. on Saturday. They all promised to tune in and watch me. Match day came, and we started on a high note. I was everywhere in midfield like Casemiro, breaking up play, winning tackles, dictating tempo. Then, barely 5 minutes into the game, I went in to dispossess an opponent and he blasted the ball straight into my John Thomas. That pain? One of the worst I’ve ever felt in my life. It was unbearable. To make matters worse, when the medical team arrived, all they could offer me was pure water. Meanwhile, my manhood felt like it was on fire and my stomach was cramping badly. I stepped out briefly for treatment, and our assistant coach looked at me and asked, “Pablochukwu, make I sub you?” I screamed, “No, sir I dey okay!” This was the biggest game of my life. My people were at home watching. I wasn’t about to leave them hanging. So I went back in and played the full 90 minutes in excruciating pain, but still delivered a masterclass. We won and I bagged my medal! Immediately we returned to UNN the next day, I ran straight to Hilltop to check if my thing is still working properly and after a little this and that. I confirmed everything was intact.

Shai: "I'm not really after the success. There's so many people in my life that sacrified for me just to play this game that I love and I would be doing them a disservice if I didn't give it my all. None of the accolades and the points and all this stuff that's cool on social media none of that is what I'm after. I'm just after making sure that while I'm doing this thing I give it my all and I'm not wasting nobody's time"

Every parent begins as a first time parent. I often get responses from parents of older/adult children wishing they’d had access to some of the information I share when their children were younger. You know what? I wish I’d had it too. At the time of my children’s birth I had a masters degree in early childhood education. I was teaching kindergarten. (That’s me in my header photo.) Did it give me an advantage? Maybe to some degree. I certainly had a strong interest, and perhaps a little more knowledge than some. If my son had been born at age 5, I would have crushed this whole parenting thing. But when it came to babies, my knowledge was all academic. On the day our son was born, my wife and I had exactly 0 days experience caring for a baby of our own. The same holds true no matter who you are… every parent begins as a first time parent. And we all make mistakes and learn as we go. I wish I’d had access to the great video examples made possible by social media as both a parent and a teacher… which is why I do what I do here on X. “Back in my day” the primary opportunity to learn about child development was by reading. What an advantage it is to actually see some of these concepts in action. I love thinking this platform might give new parents and grandparents a leg up.

Every parent begins as a first time parent. I often get responses from parents of older/adult children wishing they’d had access to some of the information I share when their children were younger. You know what? I wish I’d had it too. At the time of my children’s birth I had a masters degree in early childhood education. I was teaching kindergarten. (That’s me in my header photo.) Did it give me an advantage? Maybe to some degree. I certainly had a strong interest, and perhaps a little more knowledge than some. If my son had been born at age 5, I would have crushed this whole parenting thing. But when it came to babies, my knowledge was all academic. On the day our son was born, my wife and I had exactly 0 days experience caring for a baby of our own. The same holds true no matter who you are… every parent begins as a first time parent. And we all make mistakes and learn as we go.

“My name is Gammee Lolo Waaqayyo. According to the Gregorian calendar, I was born in 2007. I am an Ethiopian national, born in the Oromia region, West Arsi zone, Gadab Hasasa district, in a place called Woqeenxara. When I was 10 years old, both my mother and father passed away. Because of this, the community in my area gathered a small amount of money and bought me a motorcycle. I started working with it by myself. Since I worked between the town and the rural areas, government forces threatened me, saying I was transporting goods to the Shanee armed group in the forests. Out of fear, I fled the country when I was 15 years old and went to Sudan. I stayed in Sudan for about one year. There, I met a friend, and through him, we contacted a smuggler and came to Libya. After we entered Libya, we were placed in a warehouse. Once inside, they demanded money beyond my capacity. Because I had neither my father nor my mother, and my siblings were themselves struggling, I had no way to pay the ransom. Because of this, they subjected me to severe torture. After enduring this for a while, I fell sick and spent about one month inside. Eventually, they released me, and while traveling with my friends towards Tripoli, I was arrested by the police and taken to a detention center called Tajoura. I stayed in the detention center for two months, where I suffered greatly. After that, they released me. One Ethiopian man saw me where I was abandoned and took me to the UNHCR office. But when he brought me there, UNHCR refused to accept me. The young man also abandoned me right outside the UNHCR gate and left me there. I slept in front of the UNHCR gate for four days. After that, another young Ethiopian came to me and asked what had happened. He recorded a video of me and posted it on social media. Afterwards, some young people who knew me by face saw the video and came and took me with them. Even now, I am still in a very difficult situation. I am very sick. I am currently 18 years and 4 months old.”
