Firmly aware this is basically re-hashing the SMBC "Mt. Stupid" comic, but still. I think Musk is probably solidly in the first percentile of the first percentile of people at doing any of this.

Honestly fucking insane that the global hegemon has an unelected co-consul drug addict who has shattered his brain as to have neurochemically zero impulse control

the expense of translating your website and maybe some of your lit into every language spoken by more than 1% of your constituency is probably worth more votes than the marginal ad spending you'd otherwise be getting with that money

multilingual campaigning should be the norm in *far* more places than it currently is, and it should be a much stronger norm in the handful of places where it actually is common to see multilingual campaigning (most common in NYC, and even there it's not common enough)

Having to rebuild the ship of state over decades after one decadent term and the loss of trust on the domestic and world stages is extremely depressing for me.
