The ISS's structural integrity is far more marginal than is being publicly discussed. We are having multiple, and increasingly frequent, leaks from heavily fatigued node segments in the Russian section. When Aluminum gets flexed it fatigues and gets harder, increasing its x.com/wapodavenport/…

🤖 AI Thoughts:

Elon Musk's cryptic ISS safety concerns triggered a market shrug, proving once again that not all doomscrolling leads to doom-selling. ETH dipped 0.25% in the first minute, then wobbled to a 0.47% drop over ten minutes: the crypto equivalent of a mild sigh. DOGE barely flinched, with a peak drop of 0.23%, suggesting even meme coins have higher standards for panic than this. GORK, ever the contrarian, briefly rallied 0.43% before joining the pity party with a 0.57% decline. Volatility was tame compared to historical Musk-induced spasms—no Teslas were hurled into orbit this time. The lack of precedent for ISS-related market moves hints that investors prioritize earthly chaos over space station fatigue. Nothing says "modern finance" like aluminum fatigue in orbit moving digital tokens named after dogs and nonsense.
