By fair I�m talking about writing something that accurately represents the core truth. It is far easier and gets more attention if you use salacious headlines, sound bites and make it sound like �the truth lies somewhere in the middle�, even when it doesn�t, That�s how the climate deniers work.

Elon Musk really speaks!

quote:

Mr. Musk has said he saw the tweet as an attempt at transparency. He acknowledged Thursday that no one had seen or reviewed it before he posted it.

Tesla�s shares soared. Investors, analysts and journalists puzzled over the tweet � published in the middle of the day�s official market trading, an unusual time to release major news � including the price Mr. Musk cited. He said in the interview that he wanted to offer a roughly 20 percent premium over where the stock had been recently trading, which would have been about $419. He decided to round up to $420 � a number that has become code for marijuana in counterculture lore.

�It seemed like better karma at $420 than at $419,� he said in the interview. �But I was not on weed, to be clear. Weed is not helpful for productivity. There�s a reason for the word �stoned.� You just sit there like a stone on weed.�

quote:

He blamed short-sellers � investors who bet that Tesla�s shares will lose value � for much of his stress. He said he was bracing for �at least a few months of extreme torture from the short-sellers, who are desperately pushing a narrative that will possibly result in Tesla�s destruction.�

the article also confirms that he tweets on ambien benders

they've specifically blamed the deceased for their misfortune and published sensitive information to discredit them in the middle of official investigations, leading to the muskman getting into a spat with the ntsb

quote:

To help sleep when he is not working, Mr. Musk said he sometimes takes Ambien. It is often a choice of no sleep or Ambien, he said.

But this has worried some board members, who have noted that sometimes the drug does not put Mr. Musk to sleep but instead contributes to late-night Twitter sessions, according to a person familiar with the boards thinking. Some board members are also aware that Mr. Musk has on occasion used recreational drugs, according to people familiar with the matter.

I think I just mentioned it in the pics thread but, Ambien is the exact same mechanism of action as amanita muscara, the poo poo that Siberian shamans take and babble about being possessed. its nothing like psilocybin at all. I've been hosed up on zopiclone which is a close relative of Ambien and holy poo poo the z-drugs are some weird poo poo we should not be giving out to people like we do. loving love falling asleep and meeting 9 dimensional demon god.

ol qwerty bastard: Dec 13, 2005; If you want something done, do it yourself!

god is there anything more repugnant than journos fawning over the ~~tragic billionaire~~ and trying to make it out like he's just a dude like you or i but with so much crushing responsibility he's really a modern-day atlas, how sad

i was going to make some joke about how it'd be like a feudal lord getting all the town criers to proclaim to the peasants how overworked and stressed he is, but then realized if anything it's worse than that since:
a) a lord couldn't easily abdicate his position without causing problems, while musk absolutely could just retire tomorrow - except he thinks he's so much smarter than everyone else that no one but him could possibly provide the necessary leadership, and
b) unlike a lot of people today, peasants actually understood their place in the system and knew that it didn't matter how hard they worked, they would never be the king (not defending entrenched social hierarchies just stating the fact that no one reading this is ever going to be a billionaire [sorry])

so while a lord complaining to a peasant would be totally a dick move, i actually don't think it's as heinous as this late-capitalism "billionaires are our friends, sympathize with them" bullshit narrative they try to sell us all the time
