The thing that simultaneously bemuses and annoys me about Musk is - why does everything the richest man in the world does look like such cheap dogshit?

He is desperate to feel like a human being in any way, including doing things all by himself like a big boy.
He can never ever actually connect with another person because his obscene wealth puts him across a giant crevice from others. He can't even rub shoulders with the other billionaires because they think he is a nutcase.

He's the kid hanging around different groups close enough to feel involved, but not really knowing their names.

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it’s probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

That's why I'm asking, I don't know what the economics of renting out to a tech company like Twitter is - assuming that rent is being paid again anyway. But surely at some point the peace of mind of having more normal tenants must outweigh the loss of renting out more cheaply.

I thought he started paying rent again? I know he only had so long until the landlord was able to kick him out for non-payment.

At this point I'm sure the landlord is trying to figure out what ever they can to get them evicted. There's no way musk isn't going to gently caress up that building further.

Accidentally burning it down is also a pretty high possibility. Who knows how much he's had random employees gently caress with the wiring.

i know we love to rag on elon but he 100% had nothing to do with cacti on the roof. that was there from before him. if you use local plants that don't need to be watered constantly then you get the benefits of a green roof and you don't have to waste water irrigating your green roof (this is a good thing because water is a limited resource).

the sign is bad

having an irrigated roof garden in California is unhinged and it is absolutely not a crime to kill it

but it would cost a relative pittance to replace it with succulents, or at the loving least clear the dead plants away

Pretty sure even when he was still kind of a shitbag Tony Stark didn't spend most of his time jerking of Nazis, spreading conspiracy theories and being a right wing hack.

No, I think a while ago he stopped trying to do anything but harm. The boos broke him.
