We’re still not sure whether Elon Musk will show up to ring the bell on Wall Street for tomorrow’s SpaceX IPO, but he’s already in the city — in the form of an effigy erected in Times Square. Like a similar protest this week outside WWDC, this one also targets Grok for enabling child abuse imagery.

NASA’ trailer for its Artemis III mission is sick as hell. How could anyone not be hyped for this crew?

And honestly, at this point, a huge loser. (Before I even tell you what this is about, just buy our tee, it’ll look great on you.) The guy’s latest comments on Scott Pelley’s firing would be contemptible even if he were just a random online troll. So it definitely sucks that he’s the FCC chairman.

Recently-fired 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley has some words for the clowns now running CBS. “It would have been so much better if Bari Weiss had been offered this job and said ‘Oh, that’s not for me; I don’t know how to do that,’” he tells the Times. The full interview is worth your attention:

First reported by Medpage Today, police in New Orleans pushed out medical experts at an American Diabetes Association meeting for the grave crime of… distributing an editorial that was critical of the Trump administration’s war on science. I’ve stopped being able to keep score on the actual censorship happening in this country.

I’m blown away by this piece from The New York Times about executive compensation. We all know Elon is strapped to his own compensation rocket, but my eyes popped seeing Figma CEO Dylan Field’s comp in second place. Especially considering the stock is down more than 80% since going public. We’re truly just paying people based on vibes.

If you grew up enjoying Stephen Biesty’s cross-sections like me, you’ll appreciate this brilliant project from Google engineer Bryan Macomber. The website breaks down mechanical objects, like the G2 retractable pen (my favorite), the PEZ dispenser, and the Zippo lighter. I can’t wait to see what comes next. (h/t to Kottke for spotting it.)
