    I think a lot of people forget that Bill Gates was on a similar (if less public) fuck face path as Musk is on now. His complete turn toward philanthropism is pretty incredible.

    I’m not saying he hasn’t done awful things, I’m not saying he hasn’t crushed the little guy, I’m not even saying at a basic level he’s a good person. But he’s used his incredible wealth to do a lot of good in the world, and with incredibly flippant monsters like Musk showing us the alternative I feel like it’s worth re-acknowledging.

      I think Bill Gates just reached the age where he seriously started wondering if hell exists or not.
