We only made two non-firing prototypes and published just one technote on the PDR concept back in 2006.
Yet two decades later I still see it talked about. I really wish we could have got it into production somehow.

I wish I could contribute to making humanity multi-planetary, but realistically, I’d last about 15 minutes employed at @SpaceX -maybe five if I actually said anything.

We are living in the best timeline
If this doesn't inspire instinctual awe in you, I don't know what possibly could
Humanity will be multi-planetary

Any similarities between me and the Richard Fitzpatrick (Jason Priestley) from the TV series, "Call Me Fitz" (2010-13), are purely coincidental.

Spotting a Tesla Cybercab almost every time I drive around Austin now. Even saw one as far out as Dripping Springs (an hour west of Austin) last week.
We will be able to buy one soon.

Weird that I cannot remember this ACR ever being used for either trade shows or for calendar photoshoots. It appears to be unfired too.

Got an invite to get the last Signature Model S Plaids made last night (probably because I have a Roadster reservation). Had to fight FOMO really hard on this one.
This final version really is the best you could hope for with the 2026 revised styling and the carbon brakes from the track package.

One of the biggest badasses out there running a CTR stock and Pmags. Makes all those hours sweating the details worth it.
He is also running an Ergo grip - Remembering Steve Hines, @ErgoGrips founder, who passed away not long ago.

I’m noticing a lot of foreigners who seem to not understand why we’d risk hundreds of lives, spend millions of dollars, and sacrifice several aircraft to rescue one guy. And the reason they don’t understand is also the reason people can’t be made American by a piece of paper.
Lose all this to rescue 1 pilot and call it your greatest military success of all time.

At this point I think we would be better off replacing the entire Republican Senate with random people from Japan.

Happy 95th Birthday to the indomitable @WilliamShatner. Seen here in one of the great films of the era, Judgment at Nuremberg (1961)
