Coming from a motherfucker who made up hyperloop vaporware specifically to fuck up cali high speed railways
Musk pretending he cares about rail while in reality his worst recurring night mare is him being in public transport with poor people. Classic.
From my understanding California already had the red tape and funding figured out for it too. But they paused it because they wanted to look into the vaporware loop.
It’s back btw.
Good thing they ended up doing the sensible thing.
Remember when Las Vegas was set to receive the country’s first high speed rail between there and LA until Elon Musk promised the city commission that he could do it cheaper using the hyperloop? And then the hyperloop became a murder subway until it eventually crumbled beneath his hubris?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
What do you mean by murder subway?
Putting humans in an extremely low atmosphere environment… underground. I let you think of the really bad accidents that could occur from that. I’ll start you off with, what if there’s a fire? What if there’s a leak? Or an earthquake?
It’s got all the terror of space, but you’ve also got thousands of pounds of earth overhead. Makes Oceangate’s Titan sub seem downright safe by comparison.

Or the fact that the whole thing was a gimmick to stop the rail from being built so that it wouldn’t affect the sales of teslas.

And the fact that he can suck it because it’s still happening

Monorail…
6399 or 6990?
6991, it has a robot
Oooooooh robot 🫨
I heard those things are awfully loud.
It glides as lightly as a cloud.
The reason you’re not ever living on Mars is that it has no magnetosphere. Good fucking luck surviving any length of time with constant ionising radiation slapping the shit out of your DNA. This fact alone should have shut down any discussion of feasibility about colonising Mars.
Although it does make the three-titted chick from Total Recall way more realistic.
Chances are any colonies will be built underground or in lava tubes to shelter from radiation.
Even without that issue (maybe they spend all their time in a cave?), we don’t even know if a human fetus can develop healthily in a gravity lower than Earth’s.
Very true. There’s also the issue of giving birth. Women would have to be spun around like salad in a spinner in order to simulate Earth gravity but I imagine that’s a perk for Elon.
I don’t think that’s an issue, water births are a thing and buoyancy results in much less gravity being felt than they would on Mars.
That’s a really silly visual
There is a disgusting cartoon about this somewhere
So I guess we just need to build the Sides. Then, 79 years later, giant robots.
Space X is just Ultor from Red Faction.
Stop using Twitter. Let him scream into the void and fade into obscurity.
He says that like everyone is clamoring to go live on Mars. I just want food and shelter, can we start with that?
Food, shelter, and a sub 2 second ping
Remember, he left Trump back in 2017. I wonder what deal he made with him this time that makes him so dedicated again. It’s kind of hard to impress someone who has everything, so it must be more power.
Trump promised him a spot in his administration as the head of a new government efficiency department.
Giving the man who runs every company he touches into the ground a spot on a government efficiency agency is peak conservative governance.
Appointed by the person who ran every business he touches into the ground, including a casino multiple times. I don’t think efficiency means what either of them think it means.
If you’re measuring how quickly they can burn through cash, then they are remarkably efficient at that.
It’s a series of tubes!
Trump said he would create a government position just for him. He would also probably get some easier contracts and less oversight with SpaceX.
My broseph in christ, you tried to kill high-speed rail by promising magic-tube gadgetbahn that would make it obsolete any day now
It’s not even an excuse. It’s just pro-Trump propaganda. He wants a fellow sex pest in office.
God, people like him are the fucking worst because they have endless resources but their incompetence just keeps getting in their own way. Regulations are not your problem, it’s your inability to understand complex situations and lack of capacity to come up with solutions. So unless dumbass gets a perfect world, he can’t do shit. We already went to the fucking moon using slide rulers, fuck off with your loser whining.
Bobby and Elon in one picture?!? I think I might get retinal cancer from having just seen that.
Glad im not the only one. We’ll suffer together i guess.
You know, I didn’t think I could hate Musk more - but then he just one ups himself. It’s almost impressive.
Sounds like a win-win to me
Whine, whine, whine. It’s not like the US is the only people with a space program. Just go to fucking Russia already, you piece of shit.
He’d get himself thrown out of a window in no time.
Strangely, I’m not especially bothered by that outcome.
Russia won’t give him anywhere the same money or privileges.
What a piece of shit…
That “government efficiency office” is literally the position Trump offered him…
“Trump wants to put me in charge and she doesn’t so wah wah wah!”
As usual: get fucked muskrat.
If Harris becomes president, Musk will never meet his original goal of putting a human on Mars by 2021!
