Lilly Wachowski’s response reduced me to a fit of wheezing laughter.

And what is Musk going on about?

All of it, I presume: Jews, women, vaccines, democracy.
It’s completely clear: as clear as the extent to which she cares.

Nothing says “independent thinker” like publicly announcing that peer pressure has convinced you to try a strange new drug.

Huh, almost a modern version of this film moment:

It’s not clear if Ainsley Earhardt understands this distinction.
Came to check this point was made. (She hasn’t got a clue.) Left satisfied.

At this point, who f***ing cares.
Musk needs to STFU.

To a lot of conservatives out there, red = Republican and blue = Democrat, so I can see how someone easily confused by colors could be easily confused by it.

I’m with Lilly. Christ, what assholes.
Well, the “red-pill” thing is also specifically part of “MRA” nonsense, and his girlfriend just had a baby, so maybe he’s signaling something about being unwilling to be a father or supportive partner. (Although frankly his entire relationship history already indicated that.)

I’m pretty sure Elon sees himself as a White Space Christ (see SpaceX, him currently
declaring to sell off and get rid of most of his earthly possessions and likely a myriad more examples). I do think he’s a capable and smart guy, but given his wealth/status, popularity and privilege he’s really lost touch with reality. I’ve never cared for him but lately he’s really ramped up on the bullshit.

The Atlantic’s Q-Anon story from a few days ago is pretty interesting, if depressing: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/06/qanon-nothing-can-stop-what-is-coming/610567/

I’m not even sure about that, anymore. He got extremely lucky by getting in on the ground floor of some successful internet companies, so beyond some basic programming competence, I see no evidence of his intelligence or competence. Everything after that has involved taking credit for the work of others. The dumb stuff all seems to be him, though.
