I would not have guessed that Alex knew about let alone could pronounce “Jägerschnitzel”.

That being said, Alex was specifically talking about red meat and then listed a bunch of pork dishes so swing and a miss.

Jager liquor and German restaurants are surprisingly popular here. There were a lot of early German immigrants in central Texas.

I worked in a German and then an Austrian restaurant here in the States, and Jaegerschnitzel is very well-known among average folk because it's "the one with gravy on it."

I'm only about halfway through, to the part where tucker is talking about how Austin is dirty now with trash on the side of the road and whatever

I'd blame the contemporary tech transplants that didn't grow up with "Don't Mess With Texas" long before whatever lovely point he's gonna make (and yeah I also suspect it's just a euphemism for tents and such)

Tucker's shockingly mask-off in this interview. Even by Tucker standards. The poo poo coming out of his mouth is absolutely appalling.

I had to pause it a few times because it's a rough listen.

Tucker’s so giggly and weird jones on his own shows most recently can’t shut up about how “fun” and “joyful” Tucker is up on his Maine compound and repeatedly refers to Tucker as “a young Santa” he’s so jolly.

I kind of appreciate the Tucker episodes because the nature of Tucker's commentary allows Dave to tackle a less scatterbrained version of Alex's ideology and speech. The biggest downside is listening to Tucker's weird, scoldy, infantalizing speaking style.

I honestly think that Musk letting Jones back on Twitter is how Musk is going to blame the downfall of Twitter. It was not him that lead to its demise, it was the people voting to allow Jones back on. It just seems like putting Jones back on came out of nowhere and was just to shift the blame.

I also agree with the boys that this interview with Tucker was likely written by Jones which makes me wonder if Jones paid Tucker for the interview.

Musk letting Jones back onto X feels like he's trying to distract from something as well. Did a new story drop about him recently? I know there was that embarrassing story about his CEO begging Rockstar to release the GTA6 trailer on X earlier last week, but that was the last thing I heard

He's trying to get the Supreme Court to rule that the deal he made with the SEC over the "Funds secured!" stock price manipulation tweet is unconstitutional. Basically his lawyers negotiated a fine of $20 million for billions worth of stock price manipulation in return for agreeing to have a securities lawyer approve his tweets on business matters. He wants to get out of the second part.

Not that I think the two are connected, he's just a dumbass.

I feel like the easier explanation is that he's just run out of reasons to keep him banned, when his only remaining fans are so overwhelmingly sympathetic to Alex. Elon wants attention and adoration, so not a huge surprise that he would abandon his "principles" of being disgusted by Alex's treatment of Sandy Hook to score a cheap win for his own ego — and more importantly, to spite his critics.

I feel like you could just have left the first sentence off because unbanning Alex gets both Twitter and Elon some much needed attention and probably some rage-tweets/clicks from people who hate Alex, and might drive traffic and thus the stock up, at least for a while.

"Grok is woke" has been making the rounds.

Grok is The Twitter AI but it's just a quick skin on ChatGPT and the bluechecks are quite unhappy about it since it won't say slurs or be regressive about gender the way they want it to.

I mean in the sense that his only reason before was "I want to be popular", because clearly his grandstanding about how offended he was by Alex's abuse of those grieving families was pure bullshit. Now that everyone hates Elon, keeping Alex banned doesn't get him any credit, whereas unbanning him will be super popular with his "anti-woke" fans.
