    Elon Musk could have actually done something for humanity and build two of those instead of buying Twitter.

      Dude literally owns a boring company, he could have ate the cost of digging the tunnel to specifications and still have more money than buying xitter

        Yea but his boring company isn’t particularly useful for anything other than stymieing public transportation programs by acquiring contracts with cities and then doing nothing with them. Almost like he has an interest in selling more cars than expand public transit… allegedly.

          Not even allegedly. I could be wrong but I thought he admitted publicly at one point that was the whole idea behind The Boring Co. It might have even been on Rogan. Anyone remember or have a clip? Jamie, pull that up.

            I think was a biographer, who wrote that the “hyperloop” project existed only to sabotage California’s high speed train project.

      And he’s driven the value down below the price of one collider. He’s lost an entire super collider!

      You may not realize this, but the twitter money still exists. The former owners of twitter have it under their mattress right now, why don’t they build a supercollider?

        I agree, those dicks definitely could be doing better with their money and we should take it away from them for societally useful things.

      I mean we all know this, but if he wants his “brand” to be “Mr. Nerd Shit” why tf does he miss such obvious Ws?
