When I got back home and regaled my friends with my mountain stories, one of my friends joked that I should work for Elon and Vivek at DOGE and help America get off its current crash to defaulting on its own debt. So I reached out to some people and got in.
What a fucking idiot. Also a fascist collaborator, but importantly, a fucking idiot.
The combination of ‘I realized wanting to be elon is cringe’ to -> ‘im gonna join doge’ -> ‘no im gonna do physics’ (like elon).
Yo dude you were so close at first, you almost had it! You fool!
Really hope that friend was also just joking because he knew there would be no crash as the default can be extended. (But, considering rich peoples friends are usually all in the same mindspace as the rich person (see for example the text messages revealed in the Musk vs Twitter lawsuit) I doubt this).
When you are rich/famous universities give you degrees. For honour. (e: Turns out the degree thing is a bit more complicated here, according to snopes, im wondering if this was backdated (also of arts? It is a real thing but it feels a bit fishy), but im getting very conspiratorial here, so sorry yes he does have a BA in physics).

At first I was like “wait, didn’t Elon have a B.Sc. in Economics” so I searched him and apparently he also has a… B.A. in Physics?
How do you get a liberal arts degree in Physics, what is this even
EDIT: Apparently there are allegations he didn’t even finish that and he’s lying about it, I don’t care enough to actually look into it
