Elon: "We should really view the birth rate as an extreme fundamental crisis. It is really shocking how low it is. The birth rate in America has been below the replacement rate (roughly) since I was born. Roughly around 1971 or so, since then, America has been below the replacement rate. In pretty much every country, it seems as if as soon as they reach a certain level of prosperity, the birthrate drops below replacement. And I'm sort of looking into, well, has this happened before in history? And in fact, it has!

Elon: Every civilization in the past, [it is maybe counter-intuitive] the more prosperous it becomes, the lower the birth rate. Now, you would think, with prosperity, you would have MORE resources then you would have more kids.
Actually, no. It is a historical fact that the longer a civilization has been prosperous, the worse its birth rate got. And this was an issue even in ancient Rome.
Like, in 50 B.C. there's like, actually... like we still have the Roman Laws that were written. They passed laws to try to improve the birth rate of Roman Citizens in 50 B.C.
This is a fundamental civilizational challenge that has been encountered many times before. It is not something that just happened recently. It occurred throughout the cycle of civilization.

Elon: And I hope we can, at least partly, reverse it, and I think part of that is at least bringing it to conscious awareness because I meet many people who think that there are too many humans on earth. That's just not true. There aren't enough humans on earth!
You can fit all of the humans on earth into the city of New York, on one floor! Or, if you fly across the country, and you look down and you had to drop a ball on someone's head, would you succeed? And you would not.
The density of people is very low. There are very few people on earth. It's only if you live in a very dense city environment that it seems that Earth is densely populated. And it is only densely populated on about 0.1% of the surface area. So, I at least want to bring it to conscious awareness so that people don't think that Earth is overpopulated, when in fact, the Earth is underpopulated. This is true.
(audience member shouts out Bill Gates' name)
HAHA, he and I are not the best of friends. Maybe the real distinction is not whether someone is right or left? But is someone an expansionist or an extinctionist? (laughter) HAHA, yes, he (Gates) has some issues, this is true.
With any given civilization, it's not going to be exactly steady. With any given civilization, it's either going to be growing, or declining. So you can kind of divide any person's actions into: Are they expansionist or are they extinctionist?
Obviously, I am super expansionist. I think that is a far more exciting future than going extinct!
Elon: You know, it sounds obvious when you say it like that! But I still run into a lot of people who think Earth is overpopulated, so I am kind of hammering this point. We are not overpopulated, we are underpopulated.
I am in favor of, we need to have babies by whatever means, whether it is IVF, surrogacy, or whatever the case may be. That can certainly help, but we just can't go extinct. I think humanity is great and we should get bigger! I think we should expand the scope and scale of consciousness so we can better understand the nature of the universe. That is the foundation of my philosophy.

My Thoughts
A one-bedroom apartment. South Burbank, California. $200 dollars in the bank. School loans to pay off, a part-time job, and full-time (my second-degree) nursing school. This person also had a sweet little babe that she used to sneak to class with her. This is me. Yes, me, Gail Alfar, and I do not regret one second of this.
Five kids later, and I'd do it again. Men and ladies, there is no bigger joy than to have kids. For anyone who says they are a bother... they really are the opposite.
Little rugrats, they were the gems in my life.
Now mostly grown up, they have their own paths for their lives, and may they bless this crazy world!!
For you, dear reader, dear human on X...I have friends who are in differing situations and some truly cannot physically have kids, they are sweet blessings, beyond description.
But for those who are able, and who are on the fence... you CAN do it, you are unstoppable, go for it and have kids.

There will be no last-minute, buzzer-beating, day-of-the-opener lucrative contract extension for Ravens QB Lamar Jackson -- the way there was for Cowboys QB Dak Prescott on opening day two years ago, per league sources. Any deal is on hold, likely until 2027.
@HabibiBets_ @itsvegasmatt @VitalVegas Not really. People gambled before these ignorant vloggers became popular
@SleeperHQ make lineups editable for week 18 after the championship! Some leagues play for weekly high points!!!
There's a week of football left we put $5 up per team and highest point total gets the pot!
@McDonalds why can't a select in the app that I have missing items? I'm home already and don't see why need to go back to the restaurant to fix the situation.
So much for convenience...๐
Pay for YouTubeTV
Pay for ESPN+
Pay for Disney+
Still cannot watch Monday Night Football MNF tonight.
What a time to be alive.
Portland Trail Blazers assistant Tiago Splitter will assume head coaching position in the interim in place of Chauncey Billups, sources tell ESPN. Nate Bjorkgren was strongly considered by Portland but decided it was best for the franchise for him to maintain his current role.
@CaesarsSports what happened to individual sliders for NFL SGPs?
Looks like I'll need to find another Sportsbook!
@McDonalds stop telling me what I can eat at 3:30am! I want a burger, not a McGriddle! ๐
Maybe you could learn a thing or two from @JackBox
#fullmenu
@WSOP why are deposits into wsop online account immediate yet withdrawals takes days to process?
Feel like this is a shady practice to keep my money in my wsop account so that I may continue to use it and potentially lose it.
You can take my money so easy yet can't give it back
Haven't been to @SUBWAY in a long time... I know why now.
$13 for a footlong is absurd! Probably won't be back for another long time!

Enjoy this post with my thoughts on this at the end...
Elon: "We should really view the birth rate as an extreme fundamental crisis. It is really shocking how low it is. The birth rate in America has been below the replacement rate (roughly) since I was born. Roughly around 1971 or so, since then, America has been below the replacement rate. In pretty much every country, it seems as if as soon as they reach a certain level of prosperity, the birthrate drops below replacement. And I'm sort of looking into, well, has this happened before in history? And in fact, it has!

Elon: Every civilization in the past, [it is maybe counter-intuitive] the more prosperous it becomes, the lower the birth rate. Now, you would think, with prosperity, you would have MORE resources then you would have more kids.
Actually, no. It is a historical fact that the longer a civilization has been prosperous, the worse its birth rate got. And this was an issue even in ancient Rome.
Like, in 50 B.C. there's like, actually... like we still have the Roman Laws that were written. They passed laws to try to improve the birth rate of Roman Citizens in 50 B.C.
This is a fundamental civilizational challenge that has been encountered many times before. It is not something that just happened recently. It occurred throughout the cycle of civilization.

Elon: And I hope we can, at least partly, reverse it, and I think part of that is at least bringing it to conscious awareness because I meet many people who think that there are too many humans on earth. That's just not true. There aren't enough humans on earth!
You can fit all of the humans on earth into the city of New York, on one floor! Or, if you fly across the country, and you look down and you had to drop a ball on someone's head, would you succeed? And you would not.
The density of people is very low. There are very few people on earth. It's only if you live in a very dense city environment that it seems that Earth is densely populated. And it is only densely populated on about 0.1% of the surface area. So, I at least want to bring it to conscious awareness so that people don't think that Earth is overpopulated, when in fact, the Earth is underpopulated. This is true.
(audience member shouts out Bill Gates' name)
HAHA, he and I are not the best of friends. Maybe the real distinction is not whether someone is right or left? But is someone an expansionist or an extinctionist? (laughter) HAHA, yes, he (Gates) has some issues, this is true.
With any given civilization, it's not going to be exactly steady. With any given civilization, it's either going to be growing, or declining. So you can kind of divide any person's actions into: Are they expansionist or are they extinctionist?
Obviously, I am super expansionist. I think that is a far more exciting future than going extinct!
Elon: You know, it sounds obvious when you say it like that! But I still run into a lot of people who think Earth is overpopulated, so I am kind of hammering this point. We are not overpopulated, we are underpopulated.
I am in favor of, we need to have babies by whatever means, whether it is IVF, surrogacy, or whatever the case may be. That can certainly help, but we just can't go extinct. I think humanity is great and we should get bigger! I think we should expand the scope and scale of consciousness so we can better understand the nature of the universe. That is the foundation of my philosophy.
(audience member calls out, "Make babies great again!)
Elon: Yes, Make babies great again, yes!

My Thoughts
A one-bedroom apartment. South Burbank, California. $200 dollars in the bank. School loans to pay off, a part-time job, and full-time (my second-degree) nursing school. This person also had a sweet little babe that she used to sneak to class with her. This is me. Yes, me, Gail Alfar, and I do not regret one second of this.
Five kids later, and I'd do it again. Men and ladies, there is no bigger joy than to have kids. For anyone who says they are a bother... they really are the opposite.
Little rugrats, they were the gems in my life.
Now mostly grown up, they have their own paths for their lives, and may they bless this crazy world!!

@lyft how about you change how we select our ride types! No reason for XL and Comfort to be grouped together!
Maybe my cancel and acceptance rates would improve. Shouldn't have to decline 25 comforts while waiting for an XL, Black or Black SUV ride to come through.
@QuikTrip I'm not sure if I should be super stoked about the first QT in Vegas or deeply saddened that's it's 30-40 min from my side of town! ๐ง
@amazon can we get a dark mode please! It's 2024 for crying out loud! ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ตโ๐ซ
Currently at @LEGOLAND_CA and bees are everywhere. Miniland even had a swarm of a few hundred in one of the trees. This is unacceptable!
Hey @MonsterJam is this a joke? Why the exorbitant fees? Per transaction I somewhat understand...per ticket is asinine! @KTNV @8NewsNow @FOX5Vegas @News3LV
@krassenstein You're fake
@Ticketmaster just trying to search for tickets. ๐ Why can't stuff just be easy?
