While you slept last night, completely still in your bed, our galaxy moved millions of kilometers through the cosmos. You woke up in the same room, on the same planet, yet unimaginably far from where you were the night before.
The Milky Way is not drifting quietly through the universe. It is racing through space at around 600 kilometers per second, carrying billions of stars, planets, and everything on them along for the ride.
It is a good reminder that even when life feels motionless, you are always in motion.

Linguists estimate that it takes about 1,000 years for a language to change enough that people at the beginning and end of the 1,000-year period can't at all understand each other. This holds with English—if you went back to the year 1024 AD and walked around England, you wouldn't understand what the hell anyone was saying because they'd be speaking Old English, which is really a very old version of German.
What's weird is that it also holds for the future. If you time machined to 3024 AD and (if somehow humans and countries are still around) walked around New York or London, you probably wouldn't be able to understand anything people said.
This process happens slowly enough that in any one lifetime, we don't really see it happening. But if you look closely, you see it. Think how confused a 1990 person would be if you asked them to help you find that lit meme about crypto podcasts everyone was posting on their insta stories. Or think about the terms and phrases your grandparents use that have gone out of style and no young person would ever use. Or even the slightly different ways old people and young people pronounce words. Now multiply this little bucket of differences by 20 and you have a totally different language.
Before idiots blame Putin for everything, they should listen to Jeffrey Sachs, who saw what happened firsthand.
Jeffrey David Sachs (SAKS; born November 5, 1954) an American economist and public policy analyst who is a professor at Columbia University. From 2001 to 2018, Sachs was Special Advisor to the UN Secretary General.

🚨JOE ROGAN: "People are worried that Elon is going to steal everyone's money. He has $400B. Elon's not going to steal your money. That's not what he's doing. He's a super genius that has been f**ked with. When you've been f**ked with by these nitwits that hide behind 3-letter agencies, and you're dealing with one of the smartest people alive helping Donald Trump get into office and find out what corruption is really going on, you f**ked up.
You f**ked up and picked the wrong psychopath on the spectrum. He's going to hunt you down and find out what's going on, and that's good for everybody. That's how you should be looking at this, like 'Wow, we have a brilliant mind examining these really corrupt and goofy systems and bringing in a bunch of psychopath wizards."

Things will never be the same again.
DOGE will become the standard across the western world.
The old style of politics that enabled corruption and abuse of public funds is dead.
Accountability and transparency is now the standard.
We’re entering a new era for humanity.
Leaders come and leaders go, but don’t change the rules of the game.
Censorship is changing the rules of the game.
Lawfare is changing the rules of the game.
Importing voters is changing the rules of the game.
Time to change the people who are changing the rules of the game.
The great and powerful @elonmusk.
If it wasn't for him we'd be fucked. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you'll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way.
For the record, yes, that's an endorsement of Trump.
Enjoy the podcast
