      They were the real geniuses.

      “Elon Musk is big smart the book - $30!”

      “Wowowowowow hands over $30 dollars” x 1,000,000+ sales

      30 million dollars.

      And all it cost was some paper, ink and your integrity as an author.

      Star Trek Discovery mentioned him in the same sentence as the Wright brothers.

        Yeah, i actually don’t forgive them for this. Like, it dropped my opinion of the show by a bit.

          Yeah, it’s the same for me, I mean I didn’t even hate Elmo that much when that episode came out, but I remember thinking that it was probably a bit premature and wouldn’t age well… I couldn’t have imagined how right I was.
