The world’s richest man’s poor sense of humor is exposing how much of a boys’ club tech still is.
In an Oct. 29 tweet, Musk proposed opening a school called the Texas Institute of Technology and Science. In a thread, he added, “it will have epic merch, universally admired.” When someone earnestly suggested swapping “technology” and “science” so the latter came first (on the premise that “technological breakthroughs almost always follow scientific breakthroughs”), Musk shot back, “Nope, T is def first.”
Why? Because if you swapped the letters, the acronym would no longer be TITS.
