2025 in review

Retweets were more than four times the total for 2024, even though he wrote fewer originals and spent more of his time in replies. The format that travelled was curation. The year's most retweeted post was a signal boost for "a high school history teacher" whose forecasts had suddenly found an audience [1]. Several of the rest were images or clips with a thinker's name as the whole caption, "Nietzsche." [2] among them, or a single line of framing, as with a passage that "Dostoevsky wrote this after nearly being executed." [3] Camus, Buddha and F. Scott Fitzgerald all appeared the same way.

Much of his own writing was mindset, compressed to a line: "Life is fucking electric." [4] The manifesto format carried over from 2024, now aimed at fear, as in "WORRY IS A SIN. THE MANIFESTO" [5]. Luck, which he had been saying could be engineered since 2021, was spelled out as a recipe: "Luck is engineered. Right rooms, right people, right time.", followed by high energy, risk taking and "Constant optimism." [6]

Artificial Intelligence (66) and America (59) shared the top ten. On AI he was less alarmed than in 2023 and more interested in what would keep its value: "Word of mouth will be the most powerful marketing strategy. Everything can be automated and faked." [7] On America he declared that the "age of american influenced cultural hegemony is over" [8]. He closed December looking ahead, posting about the energy he wanted to take into 2026, the final and unfinished chapter of the archive.

Recurring themes

  • the widest reach of any year
  • curation, with a name as the whole caption
  • mindset compressed to a line
  • luck as something engineered
  • what keeps its value in the age of AI
