Huh, a real life representation of his Twitter purchase. Nice!

Musk took the BLAZE IT a bit too literally.
Saw it live, reminded me alot of my Kerbal Space Program sessions where the trust got too strong for the SAS to keep the rocket aligned.
Still I would be surprised if this thing will not do greatly somewhat soon, the engineers did impressive stuff in the past.
… I didn’t notice that until you mentioned it…
Is it just me, or is Twitter down? I get no results when I Twitter search “starship”.
They roll out numerous changes these days, seems like that comes with numerous issues as well.
The Supreme Court has granted a request from the Biden administration that will preserve access to mifepristone while the appeals process plays out, likely into at least next year.
I don’t like this… Fox News was like a containment cell for him and they just flicked off the safety switch.
Perhaps, but he no longer has access to the biggest cable news audience in the country. While it’s true it’s like turning a predator loose in the wild, let’s not miss out on the chance to celebrate that, for now at least, we don’t have to hear him every night anymore or look at his stupid fucking face. When he goes on to his next abomination, hopefully it’ll flop, crash, and burn.
I guess but if he was willing to walk away from one of the largest audiences in America at a company that absolutely knows he is their biggest draw. It makes you wonder if he is cooking something up in his house of horrors.
His walking away willingly is questionable. We don’t have all the details yet, at least last I checked, but the way it happened leads me to believe it was more Fox’s decision than his.
Hmm… I suppose Carlson could just fizzle out like Glenn Beck where he lingers around the background of the mainstream like a bad smell.

The body isn’t even cold and Russia Today has already offered him a job on Twitter
Republicans in Montana have censured and barred from the floor Zooey Zephyr, a transgender legislator who had the audacity to tell them that they would have “blood on their hands” if they passed a ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth last week.
Republicans, of course, hate having someone tell the truth.
“I rose up in defense of my community that day, speaking to harms that these bills bring that I have firsthand experience knowing about. I have had friends who have taken their lives because of these bills. I have fielded calls from families in Montana, including one family whose trans teenager attempted to take her life while watching a hearing on one of the anti trans bills,” she said on the House floor.
Zephyr said, “When the speaker asks me to apologize … on behalf of decorum, what he’s really asking me to do is be silent when my community is facing bills that get us killed.”
Small government strikes again!
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how in the last year, Steve Bannon, Alex Jones, and Tucker Carlson, the three most annoying and most insidious fucks of right-wing media, have all gotten screwed one way or another, with more to come and potential company to join them in the near future. I love it.
