Remember when HBO made the best basketball show of all time about the Showtime Lakers with the best casting you’ve ever seen and Adrian Brody as Pat Riley and they just fucking canceled it
History's first trillionaire is a guy who catches rockets out of the sky with chopsticks and beams internet to every dead zone on the planet.
Same guy ships cars that drive themselves, humanoid robots for the factory floor, brain chips that let paralyzed people move a cursor with pure thought, and an AI running on a supercomputer his team stood up in months instead of years.
And the people crashing out about his net worth are doing it on the app he owns. The same app governments spent years trying to censor.
You cannot legislate a rocket into orbit.
You can’t get a $1 million mortgage if you make $100K/year.
You can’t get a $75K car loan if you make $35K/year.
The fact that you can get $250K in student loans for a college degree where you’re expected to earn $40K/year is unacceptable and a complete failure of US society.
We have 18 year old kids making financial decisions that all but guarantee a lifetime of economic insecurity.
These kids do not have the capacity to understand the implications of the debt they are taking on.
The corrupt university system has successfully convinced them going to college is the “smart thing to do” and that it will all work out.
These colleges should have to take the financial hit when they load up 18 years olds with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt that basic math would tell you will never be repaid.
The federal government backstopping all these student loans does nothing but enable colleges to jack up their prices every year with zero accountability.
Shameful.
To avoid a repeat of last night’s shellacking in the 2026 midterms, Republicans should:
quit covering for pedophiles
put America before Israel
put farmers before corporations
quit funding wars abroad
reduce spending to control inflation
quit attacking independent voices
June. Perennial plants have already done enough photosynthesis to produce 5 tons per acre biomass. Millions of annual crop acres left yet unplanted. Bare ground. Solar energy wasted. 1/3 of the years' rainfall wasted. Soil getting hammered by wind and rain. What a dumb ass system
