    “If you’re so rich, why aren’t you smart?”

    Affluenza is a terrible disorder, with an unfortunately low morbidity.

    I wonder if there was the same level of near-religious devotion towards the likes of J.P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie or any of the robber barons of the original Gilded Age?

    “Twit” is an understatement and excessively, superlatively mild way of describing Elon Musk but yeah.

    A few weeks ago, stopped at a traffic light, there was a Tesla car right in front of me.
    The bumper sticker said: “I bought this car before we knew Elon Musk was crazy.”

    I will never buy anything even remotely associated with Elon Musk. No Tesla cars, no X account, no SpaceX satellite launches.
    I even trashed my Paypal account because it was started by Peter Thiel, another evil ultra-rich oligarch.

    Singer-songwriter Grimes has sued Elon Musk over parental rights, filing a petition last week against the billionaire mogul, with whom she has three children, according to a court docket.Oct 3, 2023

    Grimes sues Elon Musk over parental rights – NBC News

    NBC News https://www.nbcnews.com › news › us-news › grimes-su…

    Just about everyone who has ever dealt with Elon Musk has ended up regretting it.
    Including one of his adult children who has disowned him and who Elon Musk has abused.
    The singer Grimes is suing Musk over parental rights to her own children. Huh, what? AFAICT, she might not even know where her own children are right now.

    It’s hard though to feel too much sympathy for Grimes. She is herself a far right white racist and doesn’t seem all that bright.

    I only approve of evil in gods. Billionaires are tiresome unless they have a secret lair in a volcano or plans the destruction of all humans except their minions (in which case they win ‘honorary evil god’ status).

    I would quote the reply of the boss of Vought when he is confronted by Homelander. He succintly describes how none of the Homelaner’s crimes are remotely original, and what a tremendous disappointment he is.

    If Musk wants the credit for panache, he had better create an army of clones of himself, or build a dimensional gateway to Mars to hide his laser gun factory.
