Who is giving him this shit?
Catch me on the street with whatever pharmacy of dugs Musk is taking and I’d probably be sitting in front of a judge pretty quickly. Just another example of the rich doing whatever the F they want with no consequences.
Only to get views. Tomorrow they’ll be bending a knee again.
Christ, why did we have to get the Shitty Dystopia versions from Snow Crash, Jennifer Government, and every Gibson novel, but none of the cool and fun shit like flying cars, off-planet living, and advanced medical/cybernetic tech.
Gonna have the corpo company town again. Instead of an online walled garden it’ll be a walled city with it’s own currency that gets traded at a steep loss if you try to go anyplace nicer. Keep you in your place.
Musk is on government support. He has scores of billions in contracts, loans, subsidies, and incentives.
What’s all the BS they’ve been doing all this time? Is it not winning to crash about like a bull in a china shop wrecking things? What sort of “win” are they looking for? Are they looking for a Death Star shot where the entire country says, “as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.”
Because the writers weren’t clueless. Trump is willfully clueless.
Eh, they’ll just blame the democrats somehow. That’s all they ever do. Make up some convoluted or disconnected logic about how some unrelated policy set by Biden or Obama made trump such a shitty president.
I’m sure a significant chunk is middle class retirement savings. (Sources are not definitive, but over 40% of the value in the stock market is 401k and other retirement savings).
Gonna F the job market again, too; as people who would retire won’t because their nest egg dried up.
Lol, absolutely not. Our eggs were sub $4 up until a 4-6 weeks or so ago. Now they’re $8-9.
Parceling out the properties into new oligarchy states.
Absolutely. Already have a couple.
So front yard? Yeah, not super surprised at that. I’ve heard plenty of stories about front yard cultivators running into problems with the city. I live in a more rural/urban mixed area so it’s a lot more forgiving. Plenty of people here have apples or other fruit trees in the front yard - not aggressively farming the yard, just as part of the plantings.
That’s a bit extreme? I think that you are correct that this may be the case in front yards depending on location, but backyards are usually fine for whatever barring some HOA BS or unusual local rules.
I’m not super-experienced, but this is absolutely a viable method if you have somewhat decent soil to start with. Unfortunately where I live it’s a ton of clay, so getting the soil to a usable state absolutely requires digging. It’s just as much work to dig and amend vs build on top and import soil.
I’m tryin’, man. Fruit bearing plants take a lot of work compared to the manicured suburban steriscape. They’re not super easy to grow (depending on where you live), require pruning and fertilizer, soil amendment, and unfortunately pesticides or fencing if you don’t want insects or deer destroying your hard work.
That’s way more effort than most people want to expend. HOAs or even local ordinances may also restrict what can be grown.
He’s just going to pillage the US taxpayer to keep himself loaded while living off of us for free.
Unpopular opinion:
“Poorer” is never a word that need be used to describe any economic downturn associated with a billionaire’s finances.
“Drop in net worth” is great because one can post the pre/post net worth so we can see that they are in no way poor, even if “poorer” is technically a usable word.
Barring personal disaster, they will never be poor.
Fantastic response and comment chain full of help.
How you know this isn’t reddit. “Dump him, lawyer up, and hit the gym” appeared nowhere in this comment.
No idea. Allegedly Carr sent the email, Rubio is the Acting Director. It’s posited that the destruction of records will make it difficult for USAID to function at all.
