Yes. All the retail investors in SpaceX that will be left to hold the bag.

You’re just too small minded to comprehend the grand vision of business genius™ Elon Musk!

I’m not in any way saying that they shouldn’t have done that.

On the other hand, it was a cool product that many people would have enjoyed. And now it’s gone.

At B1 Level you can understand a lot of texts, if you’re willing to put in the work. You’ll have to look up a lot of words and re-read passages a few times occasionally. It’ll be a bit of a slog, but it’s also the most effective way to improve your reading comprehension. It’s also a lot easier these days when you can just look up stuff online.

To absolutely nobody’s surprise.

The penguin’s name is now Hodor.

I bet they had a special acolyte who’s sacred duty it was to clean up the divine cat diarrhea.

Being aware of something being wrong doesn’t mean you know how to do it better.

We come in peace earthlings!

I used to love that album when it came out. Never listened to it again, after my vinyl copy was destroyed in a basement flood, though. And now get off my lawn, damn kids!
