Scratch Monkey posted:Is this really weird or newsworthy? The dude likes something specific when he fucks and asked his girlfriend to do it. So what? Negative, it's desperate attention-mongering while Tesla ships the same 20 cybertrucks around the country in an attempt to assuage a similar PR issue.

Jimlit posted:like he should have better kinks to be honest. ABSOLUTELY. I mean, the dude is clueless about how bad his PR is now. I suppose he's also interested at least a little in not actively poisoning his rep as best his peanut brain can. However, I'd be pulling some international waters Bond villain orgies and poo poo publicly if I had the gently caress-you money he has. His evil is just so banal.

Kinda disappointed that Isaacson drank the kool aid but as mentioned there are probably some hilarious revelations that elon wrongly thought would make him look good.

I don't know who he was before he wrote this book but doing an official biography is just being a propagandist so it comes as no shock to me. He needs to keep that access.

Steve Jobs gave him basically extraordinary access and full control knowing that the book might reflect poorly on him, again, he was dying. The book was an extraordinary success and Walter Isaacson sold out his own reputation.

Rumor is that she got Elon onto the fancy Hollywood drugs. The thing about cosplay needs way more context to determine how cringe it is. Like #1 did he actually like playing Overwatch at the time or was he just jerking it to 3D rendered porn on 4chan?

Speleothing posted:Rumor is that she got Elon onto the fancy Hollywood drugs. you know its the latter. Musk strikes me as a very ernest cline type nerd where he only knows GIANT poo poo well and other stuff through osmosis and its all very shallow too. he is the dude who still reads encyclopdiea dramatica in 2023.

Isaacson is 71 so he is impressed by anyone younger that he thinks has “moxie” or “gumption” and is a real “go getter” and if they’re absolutely psychopathic incompetents that doesn’t really factor into it as much.Dapper_Swindler posted:i also think walter legit believes in Great man theory type bullshit and how its ok for people like them to no have poo poo like empathy or whatever.

Walter isaacson was the ceo of cnn during 9/11, ran a milquetoast centrist neoliberal dipshit think tank, and is deeply enmeshed in the kind of dogshit third way centrist mindset that bill clinton pushed in the 90s He is exactly the kind of rube who will eagerly gulp down the slop fed to him by someone who says the right magic words

Putin made the comments at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia, as he spoke about Russia's space program. "Elon Musk ... is undoubtedly an outstanding person. It must be admitted. I think the whole world admits it. He is an active, talented businessman," Putin said, according to a Reuters translation. Putin said Musk does business with the support of the U.S. state. The Russian president added that Moscow is "willing to develop" support for private businesses in the country.

Guy is also trying to earn a paycheck. Look at Taibbi (or whatever his name is); as soon as access ended, we started to see his real opinion of Musk come out (but just enough to not get sued by a rich rear end in a top hat who files strike suits just cause he can)

...! posted:I'm pretty sure that was Canada deporting a constant unrepentant criminal to India because they wanted him to crime somewhere else instead of continuing to crime in Canada. Canada has birthright citizenship, except for children of diplomats. The same is true for the USA. I'm not arguing for his deportation, but that's the basis of the government's case AFAIK.
