There’s a whole lot of speculating in that Bluesky thread. Everything from not eating his veggies to dementia meds.

Sausage fingers. He seems to have lost quite a bit of weight over the past year, yet his fingers look chonkier than ever.

How about he holds his breath until everyone complies?

Apparently this is an official account being used to combat their idea of fake news.
But it keeps contradicting itself. First it says the department of defense job is to do what the the president says to do and then they flat out refuse an order by the president.
So it looks like Hegseth just declared musk does not speak for the president or Hegseth is refusing to faithfully execute orders of the president.
Some serious does not compute stuff.

It could be an infiltrated IV, but in a frail elderly guy like thst it could just as easily be a minor injury and fragile veins. I would focus on the “frail and elderly” part and not fret about the etiology much.

Well Musk is now saying it was all a ruse to see if federal employees knew how to send an email. He’s so full of shit.

That also seems like another way to imply that federal workers are generally incompetent (they probably can’t even send emails!), and thus worthy of firing. And thus, another insult. I don’t think Mosk realizes how powerful hornets can be when you go around kicking their nests.

I maintain it was just the first of many stupid “tests” to instill automatic, mindless obedience.

Probably. I’m just amazed that after it blew up in his face, with multiple cabinet members and other department heads telling their employees to ignore it, he’s trying the old “Psych! It was just a test. I didn’t mean it literally” defense. I don’t think anyone’s buying that explanation.

For sure. And as much as I hate all of Trump’s cabinet, the swift backlash from most of them to what Musk tried to do here gives me some hope that Musk’s days in this administration may be numbered.

For a super genius like him, that is a really, really lame excuse. Total fail.

Once you make employees afraid to not respond to an official looking email doesn’t that make phishing expeditions easier for bad actors?

I often wonder, would Walz-Harris have won, since Harris-Walz did not? I feel bad about my fellow countrymen, but I think it would have.

It’s possible. At the very least, Walz was not part of the Biden administration, so… But, yeah… misogyny, specifically misogynoir played in a roll in the election, for sure.
