Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

There’s still time for SpaceX to do the right thing and load him in the next starship launch next week

I say strap him to the outside before they launch instead of putting him inside, preferably against the heat shield.

It's important to get empirical evidence of what happens if you strap a man to a rocket. Theoreticals are nice, but hard data is what makes science progress.

Just like the end of Gravity's Rainbow.

Indeed, launch Leon's ass to Mars. He can take Putin's Sock Puppet with him and sell Tesla's.
