Elon is so weird on tv. So hard to get inside his mind. Does he view the media as a tool? Does he care about how he’s perceived? Does he play it like a fiddle? Is it an amusement? Does he care about his image? Or who’s interviewing him? Hard to say.

All military aid from the U.S. to Ukraine from 2014-2024 has cost the U.S. tax payer $19.94 per person per year. In return they got to destroy Russia’s entire Soviet equipment inheritance and still complain it is a bad deal

If democracy survives, we’ll look at what Elon is doing now the same way we now view the aftermath of 9/11 or January 6th itself—unforgivable attacks on our democracy that, in retrospect, everyone should have seen coming.
