    It’s okay. All the 19-year-olds I’ve ever met in my life, including myself, have been highly responsible people who never, ever do incredibly stupid shit all the time.

      When i was 21, i did a lot of schoolings and was always the youngest by like 20 years. With 23, i had to school people who were 20 years older than me. All i could think off the whole time was: man, i think i’m way to young for this.

        I can’t speak for anyone else, but I would put “didn’t do shit at all” when you’re 19 and a whole world of possibilities is open to you in the category of “stupid” as well. Congratulations, we’re all members of the “19 and an idiot” club.

      I’m sure a lot of these names are people who were courted by think-tanks like the Heritage Foundation. A lot of them pay TONS to send middle class and rich kids to good colleges all to get them near positions of power - then they saw Elon randomly walking into government departments with valuable data and said ‘well shit let’s just give these kids who were gonna be coffee gophers for Lauren Boebert to him instead’.

    Reminds me of when I was working in a restaurant fresh out of highschool and they made me a manager after everyone slowly quit. The best part about having someone as young as this in a position of power is not waiting to see IF they fuck up, but WHEN they fuck up. Only thing is, this kid is in charge of way more than just cooking someone’s dinner.
