    Before that day, he was just another rich guy to me, a bit quirky and eccentric, someone who had some good ideas for our space industry that needed a good kick in the ass and had the money to make it happen. Space Jesus.

    That day was the day the image of him shattered for me. Then came the Dogecoin shit. Now I’m hoping someone, the government, or someone else, anyone, takes SpaceX from him so he can’t get in the way of Starship development and fuck up another good thing. We are so close to 100% reusability, something the Space Shuttle was supposed to do for us.
