I agree but they all think of themselves as midwestern. Would be tough to change. I’m just glad you didn’t say western because that’s an entirely different region.

Elon Musk © @elonmusk Subscribe You are fully retarded. SpaceX could have brought them back several months ago. I OFFERED THIS DIRECTLY to the Biden administration and they refused. Return WAS pushed back for political reasons. Idiot. 8:39 AM • 2/20/25 • 287K Views

Andreas Mogensen Follow @Astro_Andreas Elon, I have long admired you and what you have accomplished, especially at SpaceX and Tesla.

They are returning on the Dragon capsule that has been on ISS since last September. 8:52 AM • 2/20/25 • 94K Views

Advice King: Should I Care About Self-Care? Mindfulness is no substitute for a middle class. Meditation doesn’t work as a co-pay.

"Self-care starts with being honest with yourself: I don’t feel safe. I’m afraid of Gov. Bill Lee. I’m afraid of Donald Trump. I’m afraid that no one is going to stand up to them. There, I said it. Now LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOO!" @thecroftonshow.bsky.social www.nashvillescene.com/arts_culture...

Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "…or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.
