Elon Musk has attempted to get John Carmack to join SpaceX
I have great admiration for John’s engineering ability! What he did with Armadillo was incredible.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 4, 2021
I’ve tried to convince him many times to join SpaceX, but he has always declined (sigh).
The exchange took place on Twitter, with Musk stating he has unsuccessfully attempted to convince Carmack to join SpaceX a few times.

Maybe it's time to get back into Fallout 76. I do love that franchise. And I'll take any excuse to play Fallout in co-op.

Try not to think about the skeletons
"Have you tried... not thinking about skeletons?" my therapist asks.
— Johnny Normality (Still Spooky Mode) (@Probgoblin) February 7, 2014
I look at her.
I look at the skeleton inside her trying to trick me.
You are a mecha.
Have you considered bees?
"You promise you didn't get me bees again"

[me from a distance] just open it
I hear it's a good strategy in Hunt: Showdown.
Thank you for the clarification
Every time I talk about milk, I clarify “not breast milk.” It’s unnecessary and it makes people uncomfortable.

I love these sorts of useless add-ons to statements that really change the feel of them.
Have you thought about climbing anything recently?
Being a man isn't about what genitals you have it's about whether or not you are constantly thinking about how you'd climb on top of any given roof
— Ron Iver (@ronnui_) August 3, 2021
I bet you know how'd you get onto a roof. Or up a tree.
Ratios =/= good
math teacher: what can you tell me about ratios?
— the hype (@TheHyyyype) August 4, 2021
me: they're bad
math teacher: what
me: it means you're cancelled on the internet
Avoid them at all costs. Don't give them a fraction of your attention. Uh oh.
