First they came for the insects. I was not an insect, so I did not speak up. Then they came for the birds…
1. He’s not on tour because he’s dead.
2. He always just wanted to play the saxophone, but when he was young his dad could only afford a guitar, so he taught himself to play guitar and make it sound like a saxophone. Did whomever chose that pic know this, or a strange coincidence?

Coming from the guy who dressed an actor up in a robot costume and thought nobody would notice it wasn't a real robot, this is farcical. Humans will still be scrubbing dishes and toilets after all of this clown's vaporware predictions are long forgotten. Bet we will have some amazing weapons though!
MUSK, in Riyadh:

"My prediction, actually, for humanoid robots is that ultimately they will be tens of billions. I think everyone will want to have their personal robot. You can think of it like, as though you had your own personal C-3POor R2-D2. But
even better.

Fuck a heartburn remedy. If I am not getting heartburn, how am I supposed to know whether I made my coffee strong enough?

It’s the little things in life. Like when you’re the first car at a red light, and you’re a little bit late to go on the green, yet nobody behind you blows their horn.

McDonalds drive through. Placeholder text on receipt reads, "Valued Customer," but the sweet young child behind the mic misreads it, addresses me as "Valued Consumer," and I have never, in my entire life, felt more American than I did in that moment.

Purely anecdotal: I have noticed a sharp increase in the number of “doubled word” errors in posts, news stories etc. the last few years. I suspect it has something to do with alterations in the brain from COVID. One of the most obvious errors, easily caught by the most cursory proofread. Baffling.

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.

Because in the United States, it’s legal to feed chicken shit to cattle.

That’s why. That’s literally the reason

If I had my dream job of making up neat looking little gadgets that DO NOT EXIST, for clickbait to some idiot listicle sites, I guess A.I. would have put me out of it by now anyway.

There’s only one thing I want to smell when I walk into a weed store, and it’s not some cloying Tropical Blast Glade plug-in. WTF is with these dispensaries running air fresheners/scented candles/EO diffusers? Don’t like the smell of weed? Maybe don’t take a job running a weed store then, you clown!

Lumbergh: verb 1. To walk around aimlessly with a coffee mug in one’s hand, making inane pronouncements and being generally useless.
2. To absentmindedly misplace an item while walking around aimlessly. “Now where did I Lumbergh my coffee mug?”
