I think possibly the best thing about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire is how angry it makes a bunch of losers who've never built a thing in their lives.

Replying to @elonmusk
@elonmusk 2 PBHS Old Boys are swimming 66km across False Bay, a world first, to fund bursaries for 57 boys at the school. They've been in 16°C water for over 24 hours. It's the most South African thing I've seen in years. Donate, share, do anything: tis-here.netlify.app

They're in the water right now. 66km. 30+ hours. For 57 boys.

Chris Oldnall and Peet Crowther are attempting the first-ever solo double crossing of False Bay, to raise R10M for the Hall of Fame Legacy bursaries.

Those who understand economics (and human nature) aren’t communists.

It’s extremely easy to be communist in a free country, try being free in a communist country.

A Bok (Ox) should win it, but he’ll probably get red carded on stage, and it’ll be given to Louis.

Hi @CharlesHSavage. I’m having no luck with submitting tickets, or @EasyEquities, and I can’t call anyone. It’s been 9 days. Reaching out for some help. Thanks.
