As we gawk at the $250M Musk spent elect Trump, take a guess how long it took him to “earn” it back in the market?

It took just 15 minutes. I'm not kidding... 15 minutes. According to Bloomberg, his net worth soared by $8B just today.

That’s billionaire math for you—and it’s all of our problem.

C. Lindner: "Das ist natürlich stilistisch nicht überzeugend."
WTF😮

Wünsche mir mehr Journalist_innen, die in solchen Momenten einfach mal sagen: „Nee, komm!“

Das ist wirklich die absurdeste akademische Stellenausschreibung, die ich je gesehen habe. Fünf Monate, um einen Antrag für eine eigene Stelle zu schreiben - und was passiert nach den fünf Monaten? Dieses System ist komplett kaputt
