Cute theory, let's play it out.

A monkey hoards a trillion bananas. The troop, enraged, beats him to death. They gather around the pile to feast at last.

But... oh wait, there is no pile.

It turns out the "bananas" were shares in a banana-launching company the dead monkey founded.

The shares were worth a trillion because he was alive to run it.

Now he is dead and the stock is worth $0.

The retarded monkeys have clubbed their way into a recession.

But it gets worse.

Half the "bananas" were tied up in a rocket that supplies bananas to monkeys on the far mountain who had no bananas at all.

Another chunk was tied up in a little satellite dish that beamed banana coordinates to the troop after a flood took out their trees.

So now they realized they beat to death the only monkey who knew how the dish worked.

So the monkeys sit there.

No bananas.
No rockets.
No coordinates to get more banananas.

Just a dead body and a powerful sense of fairness as they all now became infinitely poorer.

OH

And somewhere a smaller monkey watches the whole thing and quietly decides he will never build anything in front of these animals again.

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.

Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl

NASA is building SR-1 Freedom, a nuclear electric propulsion spacecraft, launching to Mars in 2028. 

We are proud to announce this during the 250th year of the United States, the mission’s name reflects the spirit of American innovation and exploration. 
This mission will bring America’s nuclear power capabilities to space and deliver the Skyfall payload of Ingenuity class helicopters to explore the Red Planet.  

Nuclear power and propulsion will be the key to undertaking crewed missions to Mars and exploring the outer solar system.  

Space Reactor-1 (SR-1) Freedom will make the next giant leap and accomplish a key component of President Trump’s National Space Policy, bringing nuclear to space alongside @Energy.

I’m sorry this is NOT Leadership.

So now Liberals say you can’t afford a home because of the war in Iran.

How much land, lumber, drywall, concrete do we import from Iran? Zero.

But rest assured that all the other Liberal disasters will now be blamed on totally unrelated foreign conflicts.

It’s all an illusion.

@Benjami08297331 @DriveTeslaca We are keeping our model 3. So it's staying with it.

[Mitch @mitchmceachran]

@Benjami08297331 @DriveTeslaca I think the same. We are keeping our order, I'd hate to settle for a trim level we don't want just for the FSD transfer.

A lot has changed in ~16 months.....

Call me what you want.

Tesla’s clear written offer to transfer my FSD, published on the website, shown on the order screen in the app, and confirmed by a sales advisor, was the deciding factor in my ordering a Cybertruck Dual Motor.

Tesla should honor that offer. Not because I am demanding “free stuff,” but because they made the offer.

Being told to “move on,” instead of people asking Tesla to honor its word, is disappointing.

Yes, some people ordered a Cybertruck hoping to land a HW5 truck in 2027, or treating it like an option. I understand Tesla’s concern about that.

But even if 30,000 buyers transferred FSD, the financial impact would be negligible for Tesla. The cost of honoring their word is far smaller than the cost of appearing not to.

I hope Tesla is staying silent because they plan to allow FSD transfers after all.

Because honoring a clear promise should be the obvious choice.

Disappointing.
