A man working as a welder at SpaceX for $28 an hour has just become a millionaire. Juan Hernandez, who came from Mexico, welded rockets for SpaceX at $28 an hour. SpaceX gave him $10,000 in stock when he went full time in 2015, and he bought more with every paycheck for 10 years. $SPCX is now trading at $167, making his shares worth over $1 million.

Everyone will be a millionaire, and the Democrats will still be bitching about it.

Dunking on Mormonism this week for good reason. South Park proved it doesn't take much. This is actual Mormon history. Check for yourself.

Elon Musk just exposed the one lie every modern nation tells itself. Musk: β€œIn 1969, we were able to send somebody to the moon.” Rotary phones. Computers the size of rooms. Slide rules. We put a human on the moon with less processing power than your watch. Musk: β€œThen the space shuttle retired, and the United States could take no one to orbit.” The most advanced nation in human history went from footprints on the moon to zero capability of leaving the atmosphere. That is not a funding problem. That is civilizational decay dressed up as a policy decision. Musk: β€œPeople are mistaken when they think that technology just automatically improves… it will, by itself, degrade.” That sentence should keep you up tonight. We treat progress like gravity. Like it pulls us forward whether we try or not. It is the opposite. Progress is a boulder on a hill. The second you stop pushing, it rolls back over you. And it never announces itself. Musk: β€œYou look at great civilizations like ancient Egypt, and they were able to make the pyramids, and they forgot how to do that.” They did not run out of stone. They were not conquered. They got comfortable. And the knowledge bled out so quietly that nobody noticed until it was already gone. That is the real threat to everything we have built. Not a nuclear flash. Not an asteroid. Not some dramatic Hollywood collapse. A quiet forgetting. Every chip we fabricate. Every rocket we launch. Every data center we power. All of it held together by a thin fraction of the population working at a pace that would break most people. The moment that fraction gets tired or outnumbered by people who believe the machine runs itself, everything dissolves. And here is the part nobody wants to say out loud. We are not special. We are running the same operating system as every civilization that came before us. Comfort is the sedative. Complacency is the flatline. One generation that stops fighting is all it has ever taken. You do not lose the future in a war. You lose it in your sleep.

No, it doesn’t. Purpose is subjective. What makes religion so relevant is that the universe shows no clear purpose at all. It simply expands, decays, and obeys physical laws with complete indifference to whether anything understands it or not. Humans, however, struggle to endure the absurdity of their existence and the careless nature of the cosmos. Even this Earth, so often claimed to be specially designed for us, has endured more than five mass extinction events, where nearly all species were wiped out without ceremony. Entire branches of life erased long before humans arrived to congratulate themselves as the chosen species. Then religion steps in to explain what humans cannot fathom, using God as a placeholder for ignorance. It offers purpose, meaning, cosmic importance, and an afterlife stories that make our brief existence feel grander than it is. It resonates because humans are intelligent enough to fear death, yet vulnerable enough to seek comfort from fiction. Cosmically, we are far less important than we imagine. Earth is a speck orbiting one ordinary star among hundreds of billions in the Milky Way, itself one galaxy among trillions. Every empire, war, prophet, prayer, romance, achievement, and ego crisis in human history happened on a grain of dust almost nobody in the universe would notice. And even that grain is temporary. The Sun will eventually swell and sterilize this planet. Our species will vanish like countless others before us. One day, no monument, scripture, nation, bloodline, or memory of humanity may remain. The universe will continue exactly as if we never happened. Yet some still believe their god dropped them onto this tiny dot to test their free will for admission into a heavenly kingdom. The arrogance is staggering. The stupidity, even more so.
In your opinion, does the universe have a purpose ? ✍️

WARNING: LONG THREAD 🧡 Dear Americans, Your political and media class has sold you a very convenient fairy tale for decades - the tale of how your tax dollars pay to defend freeloading Europe. While it's an emotionally satisfying narrative, it's also wrong. THE U.S. DOES NOT SUBSIDIZE EUROPEAN DEFENCE. You are not running a charity, you are running an empire. And empires are costly. Your forward deployments, your bases, your carrier groups, etc. - they are the pillars of a global security architecture that mainly serves you: to protect your trade routes, your currency, your corporate supply chains, your ability to project force anywhere on the planet in hours and days, not months. Let’s walk through this like adults, and not emotional toddlers, shall we?
