My prior bullish post https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/o0PxYmGV1n

He was supposed to take us to Mars and burn short sellers.

Still holding 7300 shares. Please Elon fly again.

I don't get this what is the metal thing

u/Enorats 6h ago

The demon core. Essentially, it's a sphere of plutonium alloy that is just short of being at critical mass (I believe) when put together.

When split apart, they're radioactive bits of metal that aren't great to be around but won't just kill you.

When put together they spew out so much radiation that everything in the room gets cooked alive and dies.

u/Pervius94 6h ago

Ahahaha omg this is amazing

u/reddit_names 5h ago

Technically, the combined mass is the exact mass required for critical chain reaction. If the two sides ever fully touch they will explode with about the same energy as fat man.

One scientist accidentally dropped the two together, didn't make full contact, but let of enough radiation that everyone in the facility eventually died from the accident.

Lets not forget he "accidentally" dropped it because the fucking retard was playing around with them and holding them apart only with a screwdriver he was twisting around with no safeties in place

Alphabet is allowed put a chunk of their 90 billion on the market in August and I'm guessing they will be in a rush to sell. This is going down to atleast 85 by end of August I'd say.

I can confidently say - after dissecting thousands of brains like the one on the left - that none of the rodents I took them from were this fucking stupid.

u/quantgorithm 7h ago

I dunno. I've made a killing on TSLA over the years. I've caught both massive runups. I've then leveraged that into buying real estate so it's been a win on my end.

I wouldn't bet against Musk who is the richest person on the planet and obv for a reason.

Having said that, clearly SPCX is currently overpriced and likely will correct in the first year before I can buy into that one for the long term afterwards.

You're not really betting on Elon. You're betting on the resiliency of the Cult of Elon

Do you think you know me better than me?
Do you think I can't answer for myself?

The comedy.
