The punchline might be because eccentric billionaires with penis shaped space rockets have eccentricities. I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that Branson is a stickler for a/c. Hence the breeze in a pressurised cabin 🤣. You have to love SNL for its subtle jokes sometimes. Wonderful content, cleverly done. Bezos and his newly acquired valley boy Duuuuude when they are all just sad middle age men exploiting the fuck out of the Earth, it’s resources, and humanity. The only one I respect is Elon Musk because he is at least a straight shooter. The other billionaires can burn in hell for the opulence they indulged in when some COUNTRIES don’t even eat. These guys literally pay people to save them money. That’s how much they have. Isn’t that just disgusting? ❤️

I talked to an Amazon driver and he said their pee breaks were phased out. They used to be able to pee into a bottle but Amazon had cameras installed to prevent that.

[@atomicmuffins1328]

Makes me laugh because back when I was in college I worked at a local pickling factory and management wouldn’t let us use the bathroom. This was in the 80s. There were a lot of illegal employees at the factory and one woman was pregnant; she took a couple bathroom breaks a day which was too much, management said no or your out the door. Our job was to sort the pickles for canning and the little smashed pickle crap would get tossed into a bucket below the conveyor belt for later use as pickle relish. Anyways they said she couldn’t leave the line for a bathroom break so she would just pull the bucked out every fifteen min and pee in the bucket throughout out 12 hour shift. To this day I still won’t eat pickles or relish.

@@canaisyoung3601 if anything, probably because they have musk as the bad guy. If anything jeff bezos should have been firing on musk for "tapping the breaks in front of me, he was clearly trying to murder me" "but sir, hes not in front of us, and he didnt tap his breaks" "Dont tell me what the truth is! i know what the truth is and thats all that matters!" Then have him turning to lawyers and handing them briefcases full of money while threatening the govt with shutting down the worlds economy if they dont cancel their ISS resuply contract with spacex. Then have bezos media company put out a story about musk trying to kill bezos and then show the bribed laywer and govt official starting an investigation into spacex and tesla.

"Be Still " by Gooden and Cohen I've come a long way still have a longer way to go it's been a Lonely Road but I know I'm not alone sometimes the going has gotten tough and I was down could not get it up but when my Sin I had enough Jesus took me by the hand Be still and know that I am God With me there's nothing that's too hard I'll get you through I've left it all behind To find the one above I had to die inside To Forgive and learn to love I've found that letting go Turns faith into a rope and so now I'm holding on to the only one who gives me hope. Be still and know that I am God With me there's nothing that's too hard I'll get you through it kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGjJnGqXiJiCa9U K

[@atrejunl]

absolutely criminal they dont have DS9 in the opening credits

[@TheJMBon]

DS9 was the high point of Trek and tge best series. DS9 was excellently written, produced and acted. TNG was carried by Picard and Data and was good but not great. VOY was just a TNG reboot with worse actors in a different quadrant of space. ENT had potential but was poorly written and acted for the most part. TOS is good and DIS, meh at best.

[@rocky2332]

Was looking for someone to point it out. Still the red headed stepchild after all these years..........

[@hydrocarbon8272]

I'd pick 2 reasons - either because it WAS the best, or because it wasn't set on a moving ship going places it really didn't need to besides the reason "because we can".

literally didn’t even want to watch the rest after i noticed that

@Jesse M I wouldn't call orbiting the Earth amazing as it has been done so many times and so long ago. I do like to go after Elon fanboys who hate every entrepreneur not named Elon Musk. They're so one dimensional. I have nothing against Musk or Bezos or Branson, other than the usual rants against billionaires. Robots on Mars is amazing.

@Jesse M SpaceX is definitely the leader at this point. No doubt about that.

[@johnmininger7472]

@@Vlasko60 - You can acknowledge Musk's accomplishments while being critical of him. I am not a fanboy by any stretch of the imagination but to minimize what SpaceX has accomplished is hardly fair. They have changed the game, upping the ante, and even NASA has admitted as much.
