Well getting humans onto Mars he could do.
But getting them back…
They might not even make it there. The radiation doses that they would take on the journey are massive and likely to do heavy damage like cataracts and organ failure, especially if solar storms were to hit while they were outside the magnetosphere of either planet.
Where did I ever say he would get them there alive?
Let’s fire coffins into the sky!
Your parents lied to you. You’re not funny.
Oh I did not notice sorry.

I mean if you count bodies as humans you can just do a Mars rover style drop.
But I was of course not talking seriously because obviously there is 0 chance humans get to mars in the next decade.

You are mistakenly assuming the human being travelling to Mars will still be living.

Hear me out: They’re planning to lose.
Promise ridiculous prosperity will happen when they win.
Lose.
No matter how successful the winner might eventually be, they can always point to the ridiculous prosperity that never happened, letting them rob their base of even enjoying the basic joy of any progress, keeping them mad, hateful, and controlled.
That actually happened in Hungary with Fidesz, in 2006. They even organized the riots that happened in the autumn.
Of course the MSZP-SZDSZ government had a lot of issues, like planning to privatize the health care, but was sabotaged by Fidesz, a lot. Fidesz even helped the far-right as long as they didn’t deny the Holocaust too much (which is still technically a felony in Hungary, except no longer prosecuted to my knowledge), and pushed the “free speech for all, except for those damn gays and Romani” alignment, while also helping to suppress any news about the anti-communism paranoia of SZDSZ. There was a now infamous political ad of theirs that was pushed during the call for the health-care privatization debates which framed state-owned health care as the last remaining element of communism, except almost no one saw them as most outlets tried to frame the moderate-libertarian party as “communist”, especially the then up and coming kuruc info, a far-right “news” website known for doxxing and holocaust denial. Funnily enough, Fidesz is quietly supporting health-care privatization.
I mean the technical hurdles aren’t insurmountable. But we lack the political will power to put resources needed into it.
It would take 60s moon landing level of commitment for 10-15 years to do any sooner.
It’s technically feasible in the bare minimum “Got there” sense. Bringing someone and getting them back. But we learned a lot by the moon exploration, and that is that we aren’t ready for colonization. Living there, for a long time, let alone indefinitely, that is where the million details are still unresolved. I think that’s the problem that is worth tackling. We already know we can live in space for a long time as long as there are continuous shipments of resources from Earth. We could just flood the logistics problem with money and get to mars next year if we wanted to. Other than the psychologically horrifyingly long distances involved, of course.
I’ll say that Andy Weir got most of it right on how to do manned missions to Mars.
You build a huge space station, and then use that as the ship that goes to and from Mars.
Then the actual mission on the surface lasting a month or three before the astronauts pack up and head home.
It’s a stupid idea, and a massive waste of resources that could be used here. There are multiple articles from real scientific sites, and YouTube videos from real scientists why it’s a stupid idea.
I wasn’t commenting on whether we “should” go, only that I felt we had the resources/ability to go…

Can you expand on why you are reaching that conclusion?

How close would 44bn get us to Mars? I can’t help think that would have been a better investment than twitter.
Elon Musk is what happens when that middle school kid that says shit like “How fortuitous” gets money.
Even better was the r/photoshopbattles version of them dancing:
false profit
PROFIT
FIT
May as well roll on ketamine at the trump rally?
Ketamine doesn’t allow you to jump like. That’s unbridled love for fascism right there.
I was wondering what that expression was…
Probably makes it less boring
elon is the beta-est cuck of all time
This is so weird… Real reminds me of Theresa May’s dancing on stage in the UK.
Elon, now with 30% more DERP!™
Was wondering why this is on musk spam and who this guy is… Still having a hard time recognising the cunt in this pic.
🍊🤡
Remember when Elon came on stage to booing?
https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/12/business/elon-musk-booed-dave-chappelle/index.html
Trump: “Jump!”
Musk: “How high?”
Trump: “Get as high as you can!”
Musk: “I am already as high as I can, I wanted to know how high I should jump!”Sadly, I think it’s Musk doing the commanding. Knowing as much as I do about Musk’s philosophy, that’s not a good thing. If Trump wasn’t fascist enough, Musk certainly isn’t going to help.
I have no doubt they are empowering each other in a sick feedback loop.
I had a friend that was always into guns but was normal about it. Then he started hanging out with this other gun guy. Within a couple years they were both psycho gun nuts. He started sleeping with a loaded the gun under his pillow. Even though he had a five year old son. To quote “He isn’t strong enough to cycle the slide so it’s ok …”
I noped out of the friendship after that.
One my old friends became a cop. He would leave his service Glock in it’s holster on his belt, hanging from his computer chair. While his then 7 year old daughter and 9 year old son ran wild, with no supervision.
“They know not to touch it.”
Did he forget that kids will go out of their way to touch it. I remember when I was a little shit, I did a lot of things I wasnt supposed to do. I only got caught for the worst ones.
Shit, I only got caught on the lamest shit I did lol. If my parents knew 20% of the shit I did…
Well its pretty hard to not get caught after causing a literal dumpster fire.
I’ve cause numerous fires. Never a dumpster though. Back in the day, when my uncle was in HS he accidentally caught his hs library on fire after breaking in to smoke pot and return a book. So he’s got me beat by quite a lot. But my mother was a neglectful narcissist, so I became a master of illusion.
Edit: honestly, most of the times I fucked up was when I was trying to be helpful. Parents had a wall they started to paint and let go for 2 weeks, they went out one night when I was like 13. So I finished it as a surprise while they were out. Got paint all over the carpet. Bonehead shit but otherwise innocent. Other than the porn, that’s all I was ever caught with. I’ve ran from the cops too many times to count from ~14-24. Never anything real bad that harmed anyone, just general mischief.
Sleeping with a loaded gun under the pillow. If somebody wants to kill you, and is in your bedroom while you’re sleeping, then you’re going to wake up to a bullet going through your brain, before you go back to sleep permanently. A gun under the pillow doesn’t even make sense in the gun nuts paranoid delusions.
I thought donnie was playing a hammond solo or something, at first. Please someone photoshop that
Feels like body shaming. Elon sucks, but idk shirts are short sometimes?
I disagree with Elon’s whole act, so it’s hard to feel bad for him.
Removed by mod
They are zooming to his face, not shirt/belly. I don’t think this is even a subconscious body shaming by OP
Fair. Idk why I even bother to react. It’s meant to make people angry. This one feels particularly lame because it’s just Elon in an awkward pose. Anyone can be awkward in a still photo. I guess I mentally file this one along side those ones where people try to make Biden hugging/kissing a baby awkward, or Trump hugging/kissing a baby awkward. It’s a thing candidates do. Politics guy has his arms upward and it’s showing his belly? How awful.
Let’s hate people like Elon for things they say and do. Not because they look sorta dumb in a still photo. Am I asking too much?
Literally jumping up and down while waving your arms in support of trump of all people is what people think is dumb. Thats something he did. Youre the only person whos bringing up how he looks.
Yes and I agree. Elon sucks. Trump sucks. But clearly it’s a still photo meant to capture the awkwardness of his belly. The “story” is that Elon supports Trump to the tune of $45 million a month. But if that’s what this post was about they would have mentioned it.
I didn’t notice his belly at all, and the second photo doesn’t even include his stomach… I noticed his expression whilst he praised Trump lol
That’s all I noticed…
I think you might have some body issues or something thats causing you to hyperfixate on his belly. Literally no other comment has even mentioned it. All the comments are focusing on his ridiculous expression and the absurdity of a grown man worth billions of dollars jumping up and down like a failing children’s entertainer trying to work up some excitement from the crowd.
There’s no story, it’s a cringe photo of two known scammers.
That you focus so much on the belly when it’s not the focus of the post says more about your own biases than anything else.
I think it’s evocative of Tom Cruise jumping all over Oprah’s couches: we are supposed to read it as Musk is unhinged.
I don’t believe this has anything to do with his physical aspects. I am a woman, and I just zoomed in on his shirt to try to read it, the body didn’t register as abnormal to me. (It’s not.) Those dead eyes though…
TLDR: Loathe Musk for his mind, dgaf about his body.
You are the only person who looked at this photo and noticed Elon’s belly.
The man is a billionaire. He can afford to have his clothes tailored. He has no excuse to look badly dressed regardless his body type.
I think he is tailored made to look like one of us
Oh look he has his little cowboy belt buckle. He’s a real cowboy now!
What a fucking cunt.
What a fucking cunt
This is the sequel to Rain Man that was never made.
