    It’s crazy to see the way she’s just changed into a complete fucking idiot over the past couple years. I feel like Covid drove so many somewhat normal people insane

    I’ve always thought Cenk was a moron that’s every bit as annoying as his right wing counterparts. Ana was on one of my favorite YouTubers, RM Brown’s channel like a month or two before she went all JK Rowling and she seemed normal at the time. She just might be the type of person that can’t function unless they feel as if they’re being oppressed. Ever since Cenk stopped denying the Armenian Genocide and The Kardashian’s have made Armenian’s trendy, shes had nothing to complain about.

    yesman mentioned yorush who I randomly found too and he posted a list of other accounts a week or two ago. Obviously not the size of nba Twitter but good enough

    Yeah that stock hasn't tanked unfortunately, at least not moreso than the market in general. Capitalism does not fucking care what you say or do.

    It has recovered a bit, but it was down about 5% on the day, which equated to roughly $40 billion in market cap

    That’s fascinating but it’s still up from Monday, let’s not be sensational and paint it as news that Tesla is down 40 billion in a day when it’s up 25 billion from 3 days ago or whatever the math works out to

    I don't think it's sensational... it's just the math on a company with a nearly $750 billion market cap. A 5% swing for a company that size is something, but obviously it's made up some ground since then

    So srs question. There is logic behind a rocket exploding and it being a trial to get data & make changes....

    But it's not like we haven't had functioning and fully working rockets that NASA. Are they doing something new or drastically different than any of the other successful rocket launches NASA and other developed countries do consistently?

    It's not like these are crashing on reentry or landing...which is what I thought all his hype was about. Being able to reuse rockets
