Elon Musk did not found Tesla; the company was originally created by engineers Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning in July 2003. Musk joined Tesla in 2004 as its primary investor and chairman of the board. He didn't create ir design Tesla. He did have a lot to do with the deadly cybertruck.

Elon Musk did not start the original company named PayPal. He was a co-founder of a separate online financial services company called X.com, which later merged with its rival Confinity—the company that actually created the PayPal. Elon didn't create it. He made millions from it.

www.seattletimes.com/opinion/when... MAGA winning! JFK fully endorses ebola, measles, and so much more. He takes his grandchildren swimming in a toxic stream. He thinks drinking raw milk, which can kill you is better than fully safe pasteurized milk. MAGA loves this crap.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... Good thing we aren't at war with Iran. Too bad Obama couldn't secure a lasting peace deal that no one would decide to destroy just because they don't like Obama, or non white people.

www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news... Food trends always make me smile. Fat bad, eggs bad, butter bad, and more, but then a few years later it changes. The media jump on something early and after the second round of science we learn more. As dad used to say, all things in moderation.

Four Senate Republicans again vote to kill Trump's SAVE Act voter ID bill | Fox News share.google/bEMh2fIGy1lE... 4 Republicans that might not be back in 2027. Glad they agreed.

On We Chat I got a status from someone who wants to hate. He blames black people for his struggles. He shows 3 year old videos of shoplifting. I asked if he was more upset about petty crime or the president stealing billions from us. I gather we aren't connected anymore. Crime is bad.

History problems: if Eve didn't eat the forbidden fruit then what? Short story. If we didn't end slavery then what? If women weren't allowed the right to vote then what? MAGA wants to return to the good old days when only landed white men had power. Is that what you want?

www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news... Not every story about rich people is bad. Occasionally they do something brilliant or even selfless. I often think about what I would do with billions of dollars. Sure some of it would be silly but not all.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... It used to be illegal to make money like this, but not anymore. Anyone know how much the pardon cost? Any bribes or donations recently?

www.seattletimes.com/opinion/capt... It's hard to understand billionaires. I don't care about their money, but if they wanted to they could survive with just one mega yacht and employ another 3000 people. Not capitalism. I know. Or is it? More consumers are good 4 the economy.

www.seattletimes.com/opinion/does... Maybe he doesn't care because he has a plan to get what he wants without an election. Are you prepared for a fascist state?

www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news... In a police state it's illegal to criticize the government. In a cult it is never acceptable to speak out against the leader. In a democracy it is a right to speak freely. Is this the America you wanted, that was fought for?

Flesh-eating screwworm found in Texas cow. Are humans at risk? | Live Science share.google/YxuwXEquZ4Xn... Just ask Joe Rogan or JFK. I'm sure raw milk and swimming in poop is involved.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... Do not tell MAGA, but raw milk is known to sicken and even kill people. Pasteurized milk on the other hand is about 900% safer. As someone who gave up milk about 50 years ago I wish more people would trust in science instead of some wacky internet dude.

This week I was discussing minimum wage with a coworker. He was describing how his son, and recent graduate from UW was working in a bio lab for min wage. Part of the argument against raising it is that it's just for teens at fast food joints. Seems odd to get paid min wage after a college degree.

www.seattletimes.com/business/rea... I have no problem that they have a home worth nearly $12M. I use it as an example of the massive wealth or income gap in America and how challenging it is for over 50% of Americans to afford to live here.

Growing up there was a kid down the block named Dusty Rhodes. Years later after they had moved another family moved in with a daughter. I think her legal name was Rita but she had a nickname, Wilde River. I always thought she and Dusty were meant for eachother.

OK so why, if the earth is flat is it a disc and not shaped like a Pentagon or rumbus? If every government is involved with the lie why is Kim or some wacko like him still covering it up? I know you can't convince them with logic or data. Just like how MAGA cult members love their leader.

Something from work reminded me of a friend who asked me a question. For about 25 years he was mostly negative. He wanted to change that. We talked about changing habits/behavior. I remembered a story about making your bed. If you do it for 3 weeks it'll be normal. You might have to do it more.

www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news... I've been in Europe during 2 world cups, not in a WC city, but close. Living in Seattle I highly doubt it will have the same vibe. Hearing French, German and Italian fans sing was a lot of fun. Being far from English fans was a good choice. Who will the US beat?

www.seattletimes.com/business/ira... The talks continue. No they don't. Yes they do. No way dude. Way. Obama spent 18 months working out an excellent deal without spending billions on bombs or killing children, but Trump didn't like it. Did you like $6 has? $20 eggs? MAGA winning!

Did I hear this correctly? Neither Trump nor his family can be audited by the IRS ever again. But don't worry, I am sure they'll still pay taxes. Hey candidates, if this isn't in your campaign ads I suggest adding it. In America only Trump is above the law. Is that what u want?

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... I guess Trump will just have to keep the $1.8B American Tax Payer money because HE was pissed at the IRS and figured out that a win/win is when you are on BOTH sides of the lawsuit. MAGA justice... for some.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... Just because they are all white men doesn't mean anything... right? Good thing Obama ended racism in America.

www.seattletimes.com/business/ame... If you thought MAGA was winning before... well you ain't seen nothing yet. Vote MAGA for inflation and unaffordable food!

My wife won another pickleball tournament. She won an expensive paddle. She's a professional. She's won money in China and now a paddle. If she keeps this up we'll still be thousands under water.

www.seattletimes.com/business/boe... It's not just NASA, even the private enterprise folk fail, even the massively wealthy ones. I trust that they will learn from it and make improvements. Don't consult MAGA, they might suggest getting the measles or something.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... This is popular and available all over China. There are a lot of young people dressed up in all sorts of touristy spots. Lots of money.

Years ago I took my dad to visit the place his family left to come to America. It was still Prussia then. The Germans were long gone. The history was erased by the Soviets. It was still a special trip. Watching Treasure reminds me of parts of the adventure. I'm glad we went.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... I can't wait for his half time show in which he and his daughters dance and sing. I suggest that he goes for 24 hours. As a Thor like being I'm sure he has the stamina and intelligence to do it.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... Idolatry. Cult leader. Loved by less than 34% of Americans.

What’s up with Elisha & the she-bears? - YouTube share.google/XeceCTZJj9Db... In the olden days god would kill children for being rude to strangers or teasing a bald man. Is that pro life, or is that something else?

The Christian god is weird. At one point it sent bears, sorry she bears to kill children or teenagers because they teased an old man about being bald, but when Stalin, Mao, Hitler and others killed millions, radio silence. Pro life? The Christian god destroyed the planet for evil. Pro life? Sorry.

www.seattletimes.com/business/ame... Highest inflation in 3 years. Are we still blaming Biden?

www.seattletimes.com/business/tru... Anyone getting a refund on tariffs paid? Trillions according to MAGA. Nothing but higher prices for consumers. Vote MAGA for more economic miracles like this. Tariffs fail. We pay. Still not voting?

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... I don't have any evidence, but I blame MAGA for this and its friends. Way too many people doing stupid hateful things. Way too much behavior that your mother and grandmother would disapprove of. Do better America! Do better.

MAGA cult leader tells America that he has lowered grocery prices. Gas prices are way up. Grocery stores are far more expensive than a year ago. What will voters do? Is the dear leader correct? Is it more affordable to visit the grocery store?

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... For-profit healthcare isn't going away in America, but we COULD have not for profit insurance. I know, MAGA loves money more than you love your mom.

Brief memory from high school in the late 70s... teachers and students would cross the street (off school property) for smoke breaks. Our police station was near the school and the police would drive around looking for us to do something stupid usually with our cars. Guns in gun racks. Yup.

Weaponization fund... can we talk reparations now? No, sorry, but we can five money to folks who broke the law. If you or your family was imprisoned or enslaved because of their race or nationality, sorry. If your family wasn't allowed to own property or be a citizen because of race... get over it!

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... I don't know about you but my employer wouldn't allow me to disappear for months and not get fired, etc. I doubt I would continue getting paid, but it's OK he is in Congress and working is 100% optional. Vote MAGA for more of this.

www.seattletimes.com/nation-world... As I understand it Trump was found in a court of law that he raped her.

Lower the income and corporate taxes by adding an annual estate tax. Add the value of your property (cars, homes, etc) deduct what is owed and taxes paid for the estate. Then deduct $600k. Add another $300k if more than 80% of the property is agriculture. Up to 13.13%. Wealthiest 0.5% will pay.
