Are you kidding me? What a great fucking BS session an incredible visionary genius nutball, smoking a J and sipping good whiskey straight…
That kind of thing is how real shit gets done, amazing that it was done allowing the world to listen in.
BTW, that two year old story about a stock value “loss”? Wonder if they care to do an update, maybe learn a little about the universe from one of the masters of it.
I love quirky geniuses…several here, including our host. 😉

I’m no fan of Musk. He has a history of cronyism. Maybe his dope smoking and charisma make him a media darling … but he made much of his early wealth sucking up green renewable subsidies during the Obama era.
Lots of past and present taxpayer funded cronyism made Musk the billionaire he is now.
Just hope the Californians don’t turn Texas into Cali-2.0. Locusts gonna locust.

Texas’ insurance policy against turning Blue will be the public schools.
Every effort should be made to keep the Left from indoctrinating the youth. The best way I know of to do that is by school vouchers that would allow parents to pull their kids from the Swamp and kill the jobs of the commies while promoting best practices elsewhere.
Scott Adams of Dilbert fame points out that if there really is such a thing as “systemic racism” it is manifest in the schools and enforced by the teacher’s unions and is responsible for the destruction of cities from within.
I would amend that to call it “systemic classism” because it affects any and every race. The privileged among us send their kids to private schools for a reason.

My Texan wife & I discussed this subject. She believes the majority of those fleeing Calipornia are, at the least, center-right if not conservative. Rather than being invading Cali-locusts, they’re refugees.
That being said, if they’re accustomed to some of the perks of socialism, they might try to bring that here… Hopefully, they’ll see the err of such thinking sooner than later.

Locust, once they devour the leaves and grass, move on leaving the plant to regenerate. The left is more akin to zombies. The healthy they don’t infect, the devour alive. Never leave, unless a tap to the head.

I thought it was amusing back when FEMA was conducting an exercise in disaster readiness by preparing for the “zombie apocalypse”. Then the plague of Woke hit us with their NPC mindset, perpetual riots, and adherence to the long discredited doctrine of communism.
Now I can appreciate what a RW zombie is.
Think twiggly-puff at full pitch and then a small “poof” as its head explodes. Oopsie.

Is there a way that a tiny Jo can hang with Javier while he’s working on projects?
Plus Damon needs to have his Lawyers in any sessions.

No ma’am…twelve year olds, even genius ones, have no “own counsel”. There is so much to know and learn about life and emotional maturity that is unrelated to rocket science, that Javier and probably Elon too, need the counsel and protection of an ESQ…and their Dads.

n a shocking leak obtained by The Australian newspaper, details of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members and their infiltration into the global companies have been exposed. According to the report, nearly two million CCP agents have secretly infiltrated into some of the world’s biggest companies, banks, media groups, universities and even government agencies.
“It is believed to be the first leak of its kind in the world. What’s amazing about this database is not just that it exposes people who are members of the Communist Party, and who are now living and working all over the world, from Australia to the US to the UK, but it’s amazing because it lifts the lid on how the party operates under President and Chairman Xi Jinping,” The Australian journalist and Sky News host Sharri Markson said in the report. https://www.ibtimes.co.in/list-ccp-spies-exposed-2-million-agents-infiltrated-global-companies-details-831219
