A lunar catapult firing AI satellites into orbit? Pah. I’m building a trebuchet on Venus that shoots bitcoin spaceships into the Oort cloud
AI satellite factory on the moon? Giant space catapult? Self-sustaining city on the moon? A billion daily active users on X?

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

I am the very model of the Pagliacci who's in town
I went to see the doctor 'cos my visage had a constant frown
He said "There is a simple cure for anyone who's feeling down
You should go to the theatre, you gotta go and see this clown!"
