"what are we doing tonight?" "Same thing we do every night, Pinky..."

Ask for regulation, get what you asked for

Today’s flood of Western media hit pieces and ridiculous commentary on Elon and SpaceX is yet another sign that the West is rotting from the inside. EVEN the Chinese Communists treat their national champions with more respect than these pathetic hacks. The CCP and its state mouthpieces aren’t half as deranged with envy. They may leash guys like Jack Ma and slap them down hard when they step out of line, but at least they’re smart enough to understand that they need their best talent and innovators to deliver prosperity for their people, dominate global markets, project raw power across the planet, and forge their nation into a ruthless superpower. The Chinese see them as vital strategic national assets and would never publicly insult or attack the ambitious, high-achieving mindset that creates these winners in the first place. SpaceX is, without a doubt, America’s national champion. Elon built the first reusable orbital rockets (Falcon 9), slashed launch costs, launched more missions in a single year than entire nations, revived American space dominance, sent NASA astronauts to the ISS aboard Crew Dragon, built the Starlink constellation that now beams high-speed internet to millions across the globe (including battlefields and disaster zones), and is developing Starship - the most powerful fully reusable rocket ever built, designed to make humanity an inter-planetary species. Yet the Western press and Democratic officials are almost unanimously attacking the one man going above and beyond to secure prosperity, technological supremacy, and raw national strength for our civilization. These people are vile soul-sucking wreckers who despise all excellence. The only thing they can produce is endless grievance and failure. All they know to do is tear down the successful, insult greatness, and wallow in their own mediocrity.

SpaceX’s journey is now 1% complete

Do you want to quibble about P/E ratios? Or do you want to fucking go to Mars?

Is financial times ok

What an incredible day for humanity 🇺🇸🚀❣️ Ad Astra -- Some of my older SpaceX pics, each one a great milestone

True love be like: darling, we're like some kind of odd twin booster configuration, where strapped together we can reach places we could never reach alone.

elon at starbase ahead of the IPO - the goal, he said, is “to take the fiction out of the science fiction”

Can't wait for a future when whole star systems are owned by Founders Fund

I myself always envisioned one day becoming a starship tbh

1/ There's nothing more un-American than our slow, often corrupt build-by-permission permitting regimes. With AI creating an even wider gap between how the world works, and how it could work — it's time for radical change. @judgeglock & I make the case for private permitting 🧵

nah they'd impress me more running the Murph in a 5.11 TacTec weighted vest

If you're inexplicably into that loser Hunter Biden pivot to max aura Hunter S Thompson you're welcome

Ask a married couple of 50 years for their secret. The answers are infuriatingly simple. "We were kind to one another and we didn't quit." People hear this and go looking for the hidden answer. There isn't one. There is no secret. Make the choice, and you'll figure out the rest from within that constraint.

It simply must be said and understood

Sometimes you just need to burn the motherfuckin' boats

Society: "having kids after 40 is too late" Nature: "when you have kids after 40 you live way longer so that you can raise your kid for longer" ladies, your clock is ticking a lot slower than you think.

It takes 400 companies >2 years to build a Patriot missile. Perhaps this is why USA suddenly gave up in Iran. Incompetent manufacturing will cause us to lose future wars too. Boom is building vertically integrated factories that can do in 24h what otherwise takes years. 🧵

you're not dreaming big enough
