@ProPublica This is one of those "Well duh!" stories.
Anyone who thinks Musk has any allegiance to the USA is very sadly mistaken.
@aesthr Yeah. At the time the story (a history/news piece) gave names and details but it was too long ago to remember.
@aesthr 20+ years ago I read a story about the Great Depression where a Wall St insider was getting his shoes shined and the shoe shine boy was giving him stock tips. He realized that when the shoe shine boy was giving stock tips, the market was vastly oversold. That insider sold his holdings, and 2 weeks later, the market collapsed. I think we have a pattern that we fail to recognize.
@TomaszSusul I was just coming back to post the link, so for others:

@TomaszSusul Have you seen the youtube video of fungi playing the drums?
@synkr3tyk The irony is Trump promising peace and safety while strangling technological progress with his stupidity, tariffs, crackdowns on universities... well, his regulations.
@zebulonmysterioso @fesshole I posted a story about one incident on my website called "I Got Fired!" and that was just one example.
When you're a single parent and your ex is a narcissist, every "failure" gets used to diminish you and the love behind your actions gets ignored. That's just the way it is.
@fesshole On the flip side, sacrifice your career, hopes and dreams for loved ones and when you're on the back side of life you will have nothing and those you sacrificed for will be gone.
@Grantscheam If you were married to her husband, you'd hide your face too.
