Hey, remember when Musk said he'd donate $6B to solve world hunger if the WFP would give him a plan for how it could be done?
Did you know he actually donated $5.7B… to himself. The Musk Foundation, in 2021, held almost $10B in assets. It gave a total of $160M to charities.

Is it irony? I just ran across an ad saying "We Hire Freelancers" with a list of the things they hire for, but the ad... well, it's AI slop. Like... is this just mixed messaging? Or is it blind irony?
I don't know the right word for this.

I have *just now* realized that "you won't be able to see your daily streams" also means I don't get to see ANYTHING at ALL.
How are we supposed to know anything? It seems fucky. Imagine if KDP was like, "yo, you can publish this book, but good luck knowing how many you sold."

Jesus Christ, this rework MORE BALLS TO PICASSO sounds fucking amazing. I was expecting the whatever remix, but this is so much more. Holy shit. Bruce Dickinsons is a madman.
