They don’t mention it causing turmoil at Xitter, presumably because they are already at maximum turmoil capacity
Theres nobody left there to ask
Perhaps they contacted Twitter for a comment on Elon’s drug use and got a statement that read: 💩
I still can’t believe that’s a real thing he did, it’s straight out of a comedy skit.
I loved when the writers would try to get in contact and would point out the reply in their articles. Seems they got tired of it after a while unfortunately.
You know, I thought they already were at capacity before Elmo agreed publicly with fascists.
Xhitter employee #1: Oh dude, I think the boss is tripping balls!
Xhitter employee #2: Maybe today won’t be a total loss. Should I ask him to share that shit with us?
drug use? it would explain a few things…
No. I interacted with him on two occasions during the PayPal days. They were pitching PayPal as a payment mechanism for a bunch of our verticals. Even back then he was weird, awkward, and cringe. I think there is video of him back then taking possession of a McLaren and you can see how cringe he was.
EDIT: Found it.. On rewatch, it doesn’t really show how insufferable he was in person. It’s funny to see how x.com gets recycled though.
Then he immediately wrecked his (uninsured) McLaren:
https://www.thedrive.com/news/32191/did-you-know-elon-musk-wrecked-an-uninsured-mclaren-f1I don’t understand people buying such high-end toys and not bothering to pay for some training.
Seriously. Racing school was fun and only $1,500! Yeah that was serious money for me, but I thought it was a good investment/ birthday present. For him though… That’s like a quarter.
Uninsured is also just strange. Even if I bought a junked supercar, rebuilt the thing myself, and didn’t care if I wrecked it, I’d still insure the thing.
I feel like Elon is the type of guy who views having insurance as weak. Like someone or something having an even minute amount of authority over him is unthinkable.
For him though… That’s like a quarter.
Today, yes, but back then he was just another dot com millionaire. Remember, that footage was before PayPal, so he probably had about 300M, tops. A million was still only a fraction of his wealth, but it was still a noticeable fraction.
Even so, I seriously doubt the $1500 he could have spent to learn to drive the thing properly would have been a serious expense.
Holy receding hairline, Batman!
Nothing money couldn’t fix apparently.
Some prophetic words from the finance there.
That’s not just a McLaren, that’s probably the most famous McLaren of all time.
I think I read somewhere he’s hopped up on ket every day (but someone correct me if wrong)
he is lookin a little rough, even for that piece of shit
You don’t get hopped up on Ketamine, that’s for the comedown.
You get stimmed up on amphetamines, and then take the edge off with downers.
The way he’s slurring his words, I’d guess benzodiazapines (Xanax, Valium, etc.)
But I’m sure he’s taking Ketamine as well, and probably mixing up quite a few daily cocktails with who knows what else.
His dumbass is probably doing a bunch of RC’s to top it all off.
That sounds brain melting. Like I’m all for amphetamines, they don’t work recreationally on me, but I know a lot of people who realized they had adhd when partying and trying Adderall left them thinking clearly. But benzos, nah I’ll take panic over benzos, those fuckers scare the shit out of me. Benzos will ruin your life if you let them.
I LOVE KETAMINE SO FUCKING MUCH. I LOVE IT SO MUCH I PUT IT ALL ON MY MUSK.
His whole life story explains everything already. The drugs are just the icing on the cake.
Not as many things as untreated bipolar disorder would explain.
Here’s an archive link to the original WSJ report.
I’m usually ready to laugh at this asshole, but if he has a drug problem, then I pity him.
Important note: pity and sympathy are similar, but not the same thing.
Normalize pitying your enemies instead of hating them.
Yeah do like Mr T. And pity the fools.
I can do both. I pity the sad man who is addicted to drugs, but also he’s a fascist campaigning for human suffering and I hate that about him.
After all… you can’t spell “cocaine” without “AI”.
Unless you can’t resist getting fancy and spelling it "cocagne*
cokaggin?
Only if it’s from the Cocagne region of Columbia
Otherwise it’s just sparkling bath salts.
Come to think of it, if every time Musk says “AI” you replace it with “cocaine” or “hard drugs”, his behavior starts to make a lot more sense.
“Our hard drug future”
Could make a good extension. Try popping it into any of this drivel: https://analyticsindiamag.com/top-ten-best-quotes-by-elon-musk-on-artificial-intelligence/
It would be awful if he got ahold of too much fentanyl.
What about his toxicity and narcissism? Are they also cause for turmoil everywhere he goes?
No no, now that he has a drug problem, we’re supposed to pretend he’s not a narcissist, never said anything racist or sexist, and is just a misunderstood entrepreneur.
I hope he buys Facebook next
He’s really working hard to follow closely in the footsteps of his idol, Hitler.
the insanity and the cartoon villainy are a no comment
Drug use? … Or he was always just an idiot.
Just because you’re naturally stupid, it doesn’t always mean you’re on drugs.
There’s a high chance of both being the correct answer.
or both?
Elin’s on smack
And there ain’t no going backElon’s on smack
And he ain’t be going back
For the holidays!
He’s following Hitler’s lead
It’s interesting to look back at his AMA on reddit in 2015. Every response was so to the point and on topic, even friendly. Clearly something changed since then.
