Why stay in the building after you have set it ablaze and fully looted it? Besides, he knows his noble lieutenant Big Balls will carry on the dignified work he’s begun.
He also said that we’d have a gazillion of robotaxis by now and that Starship’s first mission to Mars would be in 2024.
However, I do think he’s both under pressure from people who would like to see Tesla continue being grotesquely overvalued and has started to realise that he needs this overvaluation himself to keep his empire going.
On the other hand, the timing and the narrative of stepping needs to be just so, otherwise he’s setting himself up to be the scapegoat for the rest of the “administration”; the old guy who everybody can blame for everything retroactively.
We’ll see. But what am I worrying myself about, he’s an accomplished bullshit artist.
Does it actually mean anything though?
I’m still not going to buy a Cybertruck.
How bout half of one?
Dirt cheap for sure!
I’m wondering how long the lawsuit about firing FTC commissioners will take to go through the courts. That came up in this video from Robert Reich and Heather Lofthouse when they interviewed FTC Commissioner Slaughter:
So I just visited Venice during my brief but blissful escape from the realities of, well, everything, and then I was repeatedly reminded of Musk when I started seeing “Doge” stuff all over town as that was the title of Venice’s supreme ruler for over 1000 years:
I doubt that Musk had this in mind as a deeper, secret meaning to DOGE, as the reference to the meme coin is probably about the most sophisticated attempt at humor/cleverness that he could be capable of, but I can’t help thinking that yes, absolutely he would want to be Doge himself.
What did they have their race or gender wrong in the file or something? Were they erroneously thought to be women? Jewish? Did they fire people by drawing numerical lots? Did they just have big balls tea bag a list of names and fire anyone whose name got smeared with his ass sweat?
Inquiring minds want to know how the smart manly men of doge planned this smartly with their smarts.
