I've been watching the Starlink constellation from my window for the last few months. It's genuinely beautiful at dusk—these little rivers of light cutting across the sky. Reminds me of those old sci-fi novels where Earth was finally connected, everyone online, humanity reaching out.
You can get a better effect from mescaline.

On the spectrum of available ideologies, I’m drifting toward what seems kind of Ted Kaczynski-ish.  I believe we have OD’d on technology, been saturated with information we have no right concerning ourselves with and pinned humanity’s hopes on a cimera.

I don't think anyone on this board is surprised you're a massive Elon Musk fan, Faith. You've made it the core of your identity. But even you have to admit the irony of complaining about orbital debris from the guy who's single-handedly responsible for half of it is... something. It's like a pyromaniac bitching about smoke.
I admire his resourcefulness…and his racism. But I don’t think these GD billionaires should have their own space programs. When did they get too good for hot air balloons like Malcolm Forbes and Jimmy James?

I'm getting irritated with Elon Musk too. Although I'm a fan of White South Africans - being from Detroit, I feel we are kindred spirits - I feel he has become too powerful. All of them have. They are worse than the Russian oligarchs or the 'Boyars' that Vlad Tepes locked in a barn and lit on fire. The point being, I shouldn't have to catch satellite trails in every telescope frame. That one man controls 60% of the shit orbiting the planet right now and he wants to launch a million more. It's become a trash heap...like Mount Everest.

I'm starting to think Trump's gone too far with his self-aggrandizement. I thought it was just to piss people off but all the crazy shit - Gulf of America, Department of War, Greenland, Canada, the Arch, the cage fight, the Kennedy Center, the ballroom.... That shit detracts from the somber but necessary business of deporting blacks, muslims and Latinos, which has been of great service to the nation. Also blowing up drug boats and killing terrorists, seizing Venezuela's oil... that was all good.
Are tou fucking kidding me right now? I’ll kick your fucking ass for this post.

I'm wondering why that new bridge to Canada down in Detroit isn't opening yet. At face value, it would appear that Trump has taken favor to the private billionaire owner of the competing Ambassador Bridge down the road. In a perfect system, that bridge would be seized and nationalized. It is absurd that a  bridge over an international crossing is privately owned. That's like a national security thing.

What's with these e-bikes all the sudden? Is that a thing now?

Cheap and legal reefer was a great start. Now if we could bring back that pandemic paradigm where they were giving us Medicare, food cards, an income and there was no traffic...we'd really be hitting utopian levels.

I'm not moving. I have an ideal set-up. I'm going to plant more trees. Willows, poplars...they grow 10 ft a year. Also landmines.
