What you need to see

What about the one with the woman in the maze? "Life's what you make it and god knows I'm working hard on mine". Not on youtube. Sad.

bugger, don't know it, just been googling hits like 'what color is god's skin'. this one was a cracker.. ahead of its time, (like noiseworks), in this era of awkward workplaces with people 'reaching out', 'touching base' and 'checking in'.

Never really had much opinion on Elon but it's starting to seem like we're witnessing an unravelling. He's always shot from the hip, but lately it's not just spontaneous and cavalier but unhinged.

He's been unhinged for a while. From 2018:

Awesome, Swellnet's therapy sessions continue.
Don't do twatter but I do like that quote from stu:
"kinda wish I was one of Elon's kids so I wouldn't have to see him anymore." says the world.

"Taking to X Saturday morning, Musk wrote, “An investigation has found 5 ActBlue-funded groups responsible for Tesla ‘protests’: Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project and Democratic Socialists of America.”

“ActBlue funders include George Soros, Reid Hoffman, Herbert Sandler, Patricia Bauman, and Leah Hunt-Hendrix. ActBlue is currently under investigation for allowing foreign and illegal donations in criminal violation of campaign finance regulations. This week, 7 ActBlue senior officials resigned, including the associate general counsel,” continued the adviser to President Donald Trump who encouraged anyone with related knowledge to share in the replies."

Musk nearly had a little cry when interviewed about Tesla currently.

That is more than any empathy or thought or pity or nearly a little cry for the 000’s he has sacked whilst smiling smugly and squealing with delight.

Irony right there.

Who would have thought it could happen. You call your customers parasites and they stop buying your cars…strange.
