Some people are so miserable that only a star on the Walk of Fame would cheer them up. And then there is the rest of us, we who get excited about any silly little thing made for us lovingly, for example, a personalized chainsaw! The scene with Elon Musk, wearing sunglasses, receiving a handcrafted chainsaw from Javier Milei, the world’s most rocking president, and howling during the delivery, is the most hard-rock thing I’ve seen in recent history, at least since the beginning of Metallica’s Load.

Milei and Musk are united above all by madness and a certain social awkwardness. They get along with the masses as well as I do when I sit among engineers and programmers at a wedding. The Argentinian buries his head in economic philosophy, while Musk has fun fantasizing about gadgets that can be launched into space.
