if the musk-trump coalition continues to fray i suspect we will see a lot of "i was at DOGE" tell-alls and i think a useful heuristic for understanding them will be "anything that makes elon look like a freak is true" coupled with "anything that makes DOGE employees look like lesser freaks is a lie" - ThreadSky

Not coincidentally, publishing a putatively exculpatory narrative could affect one’s jury pool in 2029.

I have a feeling a few will become familiar with the term, 'turning state's evidence,' in the coming years.

Lauren, if Trump steps down the sheer volume of tell-alls is going to result in the literal destruction of paper trees in the Amazon.

It's like a microcosm of Trump's first term.

What do you think the ghostwriters will title Big Balls' book?

"Bullet DOGEd
by Big Balls"

pumpkinpal.bsky.social•2 days ago

This may be a combination of cope and snobbery but I don't think Big Balls has a memoir in him

pumpkinpal.bsky.social•2 days ago

I think your typical broccoli haired doge patsy has an internal life that consists primarily of Beavis and Butthead giggling

Those guys can write their tell-alls from jail as a Last Word and Testament

Some of them seem like real freaks for sure and I ate that if I say “the one with the racist edgelord vibe,” that’s at least four of them!

I 100% expect Elon to blame everything on Big Balls. Total scapegoat. He’s gonna flee the country, move to South America, and assume the identity of Cojones Grandes.

BALLS. Rated R

(balls written in small print helvetica, to emphasize that his balls are indeed not large)

Like the little things that dropped off the big Cloverfield?

groyper (desperately): i was in doge. i can tell you all about it

helldude.bsky.social•2 days ago

essentially it'll be like the fetterman tell all. yes it's all true and yes it's being narrated by a piece of shit

antitractionist.bsky.social•2 days ago

many such cases

Big Balls was just a name Elon and his cronies gave me. I prefer to go by Humongous Nads.

Sure, but they’ll have AI write them and they will be unreadable.

We should respond to those leakers with "yes, please tell us your tale, as a public service" and them blacklist them for life such that they live under a fucking bridge.

I'll happily accept their discrediting Musk, but they signed up for DOGE and so should be banished. I mean this literally.

A freak of greed. Why TF does that guy need any more money? Much less to inflict harm on others to get it.

Let's not buy into the myth that Musk is leaving politics and will stop vandalizing our government and democracy.
