Imagine having enough money to end child hunger in America and suggesting that you might give the kids shares of your company instead. And the glaring part of this is the "might". I would put the odds somewhere around 0%. How long until they start hunting us for sport?
You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

In the vein of "public libraries could never be created today," a pitch for a calculator would get you thrown out of the boardroom. What do you mean, it just maths? Where are the ads supposed to go? How does it send usage telemetry back if it doesn't even have wifi? There isn't even a leaderboard.

These women keep killing their kids. Here is another. We need someone to help redirect this growing violence. These moms are mad, but mad at the wrong people. I propose the Luigi Mangione Institute for Young Mothers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ye6...
Obama's tan suit claims more victims. When will we put a stop to this madness? How hard can it be to stop one sentient suit?
A plane with six people aboard lost contact during a flight from Bermuda to Boston, and the U.S. Coast Guard said it was searching Saturday for the missing aircraft off the coast of Nantucket.
I fear they are about to purge anyone not hyper loyal to Trump. When the coup happens, they need full military support so they are getting rid anyone they think might be trouble.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Wednesday that the Pentagon will cut the number of its generals and admirals by roughly 20% by the start of next year.
AI art and music have this problem too. People learn to make art because it is fun to make art. Practice, study, improvement, all that is FUN for people. We have had drum machines for decades. People still learn to play the drums. We are still willing to pay money to watch someone play drums live.
I'm always struck by the absolute fucking JOYLESSNESS of it all. They don't want to browse and explore and spend time actively pursuing a hobby they might enjoy. Instead, they want to click 5 times and then go "Behold my stuff" to an empty room because they have no actual friends.
Google Maps has updated their satellite images of Gaza. See it for yourself. Block after block, mile after mile, nothing left but rubble and tents, little white tents everywhere on the coast, thousands upon thousands of tents. Look! www.google.com/maps/place/%...
Every tiny white rectangle is a tent with a refuge family living in it. Innocent people lived in those buildings. Count them! I dare you! www.google.com/maps/place/%...
Here are pictures of the tents from the ground. Those really are white tents you are seeing all over Gaza. They are everywhere. www.google.com/search?udm=2...

No one wants to work any more because we are being judged by arbitrary nonsensical rules. Tell me how a beverage would negatively impact an employee's performance, please. Humans waste so much time and energy worrying about the most trivial nonsense.
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.
