In 2019, I was flown from New York to Toronto to do an editorial for @FashionCanada I came into the studio and asked where all the models are. They said it’s only me. I was surprised. And then had to make poses that were awkward for me. Looks like they turned out OK. Keep learning… @XFashion More modeling stories in: TIMELESS- The Art of Reinvention and Resilience at Any Age 📕 Pre-order lnk.to/TimelessMayeMusk Thanks @harpercollins @harper_wave

Still excited about the wonderful 250th birthday of America yesterday. It was amazing to see many cities in the USA and other countries celebrating and having the greatest time. Solused@grok to place the flag in my background. pic.x.com/CWUVrTb27X

About 15 years ago, I modeled a bridal gown on @TheView One of the hosts asked the stylist if I should be wearing white, considering my age. He said, should any bride be wearing white?🥺😂😂 @XFashion Movement and voice by @grok

A nice look for an interview. My publisher is working very hard booking many media appearances in September when my book comes out. Thank you @HarperCollins @Harper_Wave TIMELESS- The Art of Reinvention and Resilience at Any Age 📕 lnk.to/TimelessMayeMusk

I am so excited my current book is now in 38 languages and over 100 countries. Thank you to all the women who have purchased my book, and many men too. Men tell me it isn’t only for women, and they are right. 🤗🤗 #AWomanMakesAPlan #ItsGreatToBe78

I am so happy my Russian publisher has renewed my current book. Спасибо @BomboraBooks They were the first country to publish my book on May 25, 2020. This was during the Covid lockdown!!! I didn’t know translators and printing houses were open in other countries. That was a huge and wonderful surprise. I also did something brave, a photoshoot during Covid in an empty Grand Central and lying down in the street of New York City as there was no traffic 🥺😂😂 #AWomanMakesAPlan #ItsGreatToBe78

My book was translated and published in The Netherlands and Belgium on June 10, 2020 during the COVID lockdown. I did some interviews virtually from my Los Angeles apartment, and one at an empty hotel with two photographers wearing masks, 6 feet away from me. As I am fluent in Afrikaans, I could converse with them, although they spoke English well. I have wonderful memories of modeling jobs I’ve done in Amsterdam. So sad that I couldn’t go to the Netherlands or Belgium to promote my book. Those were weird times. #EenVrouwMaaktEenPlan #ItsGreatToBe78 Now😉

A fashion story, from rejection to success @XFashion The first photo is from the @VOGUE_Germany editorial and interview in March 2019. How did I get this job, at 71? Well, in 2017 I went to Paris Fashion Week for the first time and was invited to a runway show. I lined up and spoke to two women from this magazine for about 20 minutes. When I got to the ticket checker she had my name, but I didn’t have the paper invite. Disappointed, I had to leave. When I returned to my team, I saw they had the paper invite, which said that I need to take it to the runway show. A learning experience …. However, I do think talking to these two lovely ladies while lining up, helped get me get my German book published in Germany, Switzerland, Austria on Dec 10, 2020. Then many virtual interviews came during the Covid lockdown, using my photos. Weird times. #EineFrauEinPlan 📖 #Esisttoll78zusein 💪💃

Thank you. My father had on the back of his business card: “Keep smiling” 😀💖

For my book in Japanese, the publisher @s_bizbooks chose a different photo for their cover and sent 500 books to be signed🥺🥰 Then @ellejapan did a lovely fashion editorial. @XFashion #AWomanMakesAPlan #ItsGreatToBe78

In my early 60s, I was doing mainly paid commercial jobs. When I was asked to do a free creative photoshoot for a makeup book I didn’t quite understand what they meant, but took a chance. The creative team was very talented. I had no idea the photos would look so good. This slow change from catalogs to couture is in my new book coming out mid-September. @XFashion TIMELESS- The Art of Reinvention and Resilience at Any Age 📕 lnk.to/TimelessMayeMusk

True 🥺😂

I’m thrilled to show you the cover of my next book, TIMELESS, coming from @harperbooks and @HQstories September 15, 2026! This is the behind-the-scenes story of my second (and third, and fourth) acts. From surviving hardships to thriving in my seventies, I hope my story inspires you to embrace change at any age and believe the best is yet to come.

Legendary investor Jeremy Grantham just torched SpaceX on 'Diary of a CEO', calling it a “fabulous BS story” that will fail to deliver on its wild prospectus promises — including mining asteroids. BARTLETT: “You think SpaceX will fail?” GRANTHAM: “I think it would fail to deliver anything like its promises in the perspectives. Yes, absolutely.” “SpaceX is such a fabulous BS story. Mining asteroids… It’s the classic description of a market peak. It’s what you look for at the top of a terrific bubble.” “He [Elon] is so good at BS that he took Tesla stock up to four or five times what it was worth on paper. Sold a ton at those inflated prices to build the gigafactory. It became a self-fulfilling prophecy. Now SpaceX requires him to do the same again.” “That’s what he says about the asteroids and everything. Going to Mars is not within the laws of physics. It’s a one-way ticket… You have to protect yourself against cosmic rays and gravity issues. We’ve never built a sustainable dome here on Earth — they all fail. We’re destroying this planet, yet we think we can colonize one that’s infinitely more hostile.” “That’s the really bad news embedded in your stock — pure fantasy at the exact time our own planet is under threat.” BARTLETT: “Would you ever invest in SpaceX?” GRANTHAM: “Yeah, of course… if it came down to 10 cents on the dollar.”

Ten years in crypto means you've seen every cycle, every challenge, and every opportunity. Very few companies earn the privilege of celebrating a decade in this industry. Congratulations to #ViaBTC on reaching this milestone The next decade won't just be about mining blocks it'll be about powering the infrastructure behind a more decentralized world. Excited to see what comes next. Here's to building, innovating, and growing even bigger. Via @coinexcom @coinexcreators #ViaBTC10 #CoinEx #Crypto

SILVER update: Part 3 🧵 BofA is sitting in a very precarious position. They have massively increased their derivative short position in SILVER and don’t have the SILVER to back up the trade. JPM is on the opposite side of that trade and in a position to takeover BofA, if they go broke because of their SILVER shorts. What are the odds of SILVER going higher? “Despite the fact that silver has now broken the $120 barrier...albeit briefly -- and the silver well in London came close to running dry last October...the gold/silver ratio remains at a farcical 69.2 to 1 as of Friday's close. The 'normal' and historical ratio is around 15 to 1...which would put silver at a bit under $270 based on gold's closing price on Friday. And if priced at the ratio of 7:1 that it comes out of the ground at...compared to gold...that would put silver at a bit under $585 an ounce. So a rather impressive triple-digit silver price is in our future...most likely somewhere between those two numbers.” A spike in the SILVER price is inevitable. It will likely bankrupt BofA, because of its derivatives short position in SILVER. The same thing might happen to Wells Fargo. Are we witnessing a “controlled demolition” of the big banking “monopolies?” Will they be broken up? Are they being FORCED to keep the SILVER price low temporarily, in order to allow big tech companies, advanced weapons manufacturers and the Treasury to accumulate SILVER at lower prices? When will the “accumulation” phase in SILVER end? Is it ALREADY coming to an end? Check out what’s happening to “physical” SILVER withdrawals at COMEX recently. “COMEX silver withdrawals had been monstrous up until recently...135 million in Q1/2026...23 million oz. in April -- but only 12.6 million oz. in May -- and nothing worth mentioning in June so far. As you can see, withdrawals from the COMEX have imploded in the last few months.” It looks to me like the “accumulation” phase is ending. Withdrawals at COMEX “had been monstrous.” But now they have drastically disappeared. In the past year, they went from 135 million ounces in the first quarter to less than a quarter of that amount now. But there’s another story flying under the radar. The SILVER “mining stocks” are doing far better than the SILVER they produce. That’s SIGNAL. Why? Here’s the hidden story. “I mentioned further up how well the silver equities are 'outperforming', relative to its underlying precious metal...compared to the HUI and the gold price. It appears likely that there must be some stealth accumulation of shares in the silver miners -- and whoever they may be, must have pretty deep pockets...as the dichotomy between the performance of the gold stocks vs. the silver shares is very stark.” silverseek.com/article/big-8… Some “stealth” investors are “accumulating” a lot of shares in SILVER mining companies and they have “deep pockets.” Remember this? “The U.S. government just made a move that should immediately put silver back on your radar.  In a new White House proclamation, silver — alongside roughly 40 other materials — has officially been framed as a national security concern. That’s not marketing language. That’s a signal.” goldsilver.com/industry-news… And remember when JD Vance hosted this forum? “Today in Washington DC, Vice-President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio led a critical minerals discussion at the State Dept., where they are organizing an effort to get all nations to invest and create their own critical minerals strategic reserves.” Trump created a “critical minerals” reserve, similar to the oil reserve. “For years, American businesses have risked running out of critical minerals during market disruptions,” President Trump said. “Just as we have long had a strategic petroleum reserve and a stockpile of critical minerals for national defense, we are now creating this reserve for American industry,” Trump said during the Oval Office announcement.” theconservativetreehouse.com… SILVER is the KEY.

$IREN co-founders just got approved for a $1.14 billion pay package. It lands a week after a $50 million a year Warriors jersey patch deal, and four months after a $6 billion ATM that replaced the $1 billion they’d already fully tapped. The optics look like a management team spending someone else’s money. The mechanics say something different. Here’s what the package actually is: Nine million shares each, vesting in tranches through 2030. They have to hold every tranche two years before they can sell a single share. The board locked out any new grants until FY2031. Now the number that matters. Each brother owns about 3.9% of IREN today, 14 million shares. Add the new grant and they’re each sitting on roughly 23 million shares once fully vested. Combined founder ownership pushes toward 12%. That’s the same range Arkady Volozh holds at $NBIS, arguably the most founder-aligned name in this entire AI infrastructure trade. The Roberts brothers just bought themselves into that same tier. Here’s the part I’m not waving away. This grant is the third major capital and spending decision from this board in four months, after the $6 billion ATM and the Warriors deal. Stack a nine-figure equity package on aggressive share issuance and a Bay Area sponsorship splash, and you get a leadership team spending like the AI Cloud ramp is already proven, when bitcoin mining still made up the majority of last quarter’s revenue. A $1.14 billion pay packet reads like excess until you notice it’s the same bet Volozh made on Nebius: get paid in shares, get locked in for years, let the buildout do the talking. The Roberts brothers just wagered four years of their own net worth on hitting numbers they haven’t hit yet. I’m still long. But I also want the next earning to show results for the path forward. And based on recent activities and lack of PR I think @danroberts0101 owes retail some clarity. -BP Not financial advice.

💬 PIONEERS — Did you notice the mining rate just went UP? Is this the start of a new trend? 📈🔥 The numbers are in: 📊 Previous rate: 0.0022191 Pi/hour 📊 Current rate: 0.0024179 Pi/hour 📊 Increase: ~9% 🚀 This follows a 4.1% rise in June and now a 9% rise in July . For months, the rate was declining. Now it's climbing. The algorithm is adjusting. Why this matters: 🔹 Mining isn't just decreasing anymore it's dynamic 🔹 The network might be responding to activity levels behind the scenes 🔹 This could signal ecosystem recalibration before the next phase 👇 Are you mining more now?
