Tim reacts to a Bloomberg story about a humanoid robot selling NFT art for $688,000 while humans can't find jobs, tying it to misplaced priorities like colonizing Mars.

In this bit4 moments
  • Tim notes the depressive reality that Mars colonization won't work because you can't breathe there, while Elon keeps blowing up spaceships and people still can't get vaccinated or healthcare.
  • We couldn't even beat a pandemic, so colonizing an uninhabitable planet is unrealistic—it'll take far longer than a decade to terraform.
  • Tim admits he's stupid and doesn't understand terraforming, saying if he had to survive Mars he'd just want them to grow him a pizza.
  • The wealthy will escape to Mars while the rest of humanity stays behind—maybe it'll just be Joe Rogan and Kamala Harris up there.
