I guess it was really only a matter of time before economic circumstances drove Musk to go full Trump.
I don’t when think it’s a matter of circumstance, he’s been steadily careening into narcissistic separation from reality for a while now.
Wait, what? Really?
Word, Leverage’s reboot is quite timely, given the current level of unbelievable fuckery…
I said it before: Bezos, the Waltons, the Weston family, etc… all of them sell things people need. They’re not panicking in this pandemic, because business is fine.
Musk went after the luxury market. A market that – unlike food and delivery of goods – isn’t considered desirable when people are staying the fuck home. Sure, when you could feel superior in a world when everyone was driving everywhere, but now? And all his other hobby businesses cost money.
So, he’s panicking. He’s not the golden boy, anymore. People can see he’s just a dillitante playing with grandaddy’s money. Hence the need to do what every fraud does: outrageous things to distract from the truth.
Looks like there is something specific, since identical twins are discordant with fraternal twins. It may be one gene making a difference. Maybe an x-linked trait?

667… The Neighbor Of The Beast.
Not quite:
(I actually have this series, in paperback. Bought it in college.)
Ha! Good old Lionel Fen! I read a bunch of his books back in the day.
Every time I use that one I thin to myself ‘But the actual neighbor’s address would be 668’ but that doesn’t feel as funny as only being incremented by one.
Well, the across-the-street neighbor of the Beast, anyway.
A nice reminder to remain focused on reality but not at the expense of keeping ourselves supported:
the across the street neighbor in the states at any rate
Hey you theater types needing revenue
Anybody else seen these?
All I can say is nopenopenopenope…
