      Other funny part I didn’t even realize till just now:

      Trump announces space based Goldeneye Satellite system…

      … utterly cucks Elon and doesn’t mention him nor SpaceX fucking at all.

      What a bunch of fucking clowns.

        hahaha lmao I didn’t think of that either, that’s incredible. I can’t wait for the inevitable musk/trump split, maybe if we’re lucky musk will try a palace coup

          Elon appears to be bowing out of the administration after being such a massive doofus chode idiot asshat that even the Trump admin of other dumb idiot assholes couldn’t stand him… despite him having more money than God, and bankrolling their election.

          EDIT: We need like a satire cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, Elonian Rhapsody or something, about an emotionally stunted and troubled bastard who just truly wants to be seen as a cool guy and respected by some friends, but can’t figure out that you can’t buy that in a meaningful way.

          Elons life is literally a tragedy, a fucking (post)modern Citizen Kane, but with socially stunted memelord charisma.

          He has seen great heights and success, but in achieving that, he has become a hypocrite and abandoned all of his previously held values, pissed off basically everyone he’s ever known or who once looked up to him, been kicked out of ever social group he has ever himself idolized.

          A real life goddamned supervillain.

            I’ve disliked him for so long I keep forgetting that it wasn’t all that long ago he was considered “one of the good billionaires” by a ton of people. Prior to, what, 2020 if you asked the average person about him you’d just get “oh he’s that electric car guy in Iron Man right”. If he had played his cards right and not dropped that facade he’d still be viewed largely positively by most people.

              His initial view on AI was that it was potentially very dangerous, in a SkyNet, Roko’s Basilisk kind of way.

              Then he just flipped a hard 180 on that when ‘wait, what if AI drive car?’
