That's why he's got seven kids so far? Or is this how he announces number 8?

7 is the solution to his last kid
― lumen (esby), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 23:14 (three years ago) link
Well, six. His first one died as a baby, then he had twins and triplets with his first wife. So his baby with Grimes is his seventh kid, though six survive.

death of his child is hes said what inspired him to save the world... by making cars

ah yes cars, that thing we need more of

More cars or more babies is kind of a toss-up.

just like in olden times, he had a lot of kids so they could help him work on the electric car farm

17 30-second images of the comet added up by @cielodecanarias, completely photobombed by @elonmusk's #Starlink satellites. It's a few hundreds of them right now,there will be a few thousands in the near future. @SpaceX is committed to coating orienting them better but still.... pic.twitter.com/TYtTf5xwhc— Julien Girard (@djulik) July 22, 2020

Not to be all no true Scotsman but I’d question whether these were “lefties”
― Rishi don’t lose my voucher (wins), Saturday, 25 July 2020 16:28 (three years ago) link
the only person i've ever met who was pro Elon was a complete Tory creep who kept winking at me when I was chatting to his wife, and he was completely incredulous that he'd called that diver a pedo and was blithering on about some top-notch ted-talk he did. but "lefties" not a bloody chance, not even the so-called soft left i don't think.

maybe she deleted it. doesn't matter, it's still being shared all around discord. it was raw, emotional, and intensely personal.
i'm thinking of calling my next vaporwave project Cis Men in Acute Emotional Crisis. and it's real vaporwave, by which i mean it won't even exist.
look, i know this is a pvmic but it pains me on an ongoing basis to see cis men who are obviously not doing well lash out with anger and hatred and rage, to get into this particular spiral. it deeply saddens me the pattern playing out here, where Elon Musk's Girlfriend who is a brilliant and creative and accomplished woman tries to take care of him because he doesn't fucking know how to take care of himself, because he doesn't know how to hurt without hurting other people, and then when she does, everybody points at her, everybody _blames_ her, it's her fault for having the temerity to love a man.
there are a lot of women who love men, and it is hard, it is really fucking hard for the women i know. men have no idea how fucking hard it is.
elon musk is in emotional crisis, and he is handling it the same way goddamn near every other cis man handles emotional crisis, the way i used to handle emotional crisis before i transitioned and started to learn how to have fucking emotional boundaries - by lashing out like a wounded animal.

as to whether the "left" likes musk, i mean, half the women on trans discord still get really bubbly whenever there's a spacex launch. if you want to say trans women aren't really "lefties", i just don't know how much of a useful judgement that is.

“worshipping the ceo of Tesla(/whatever other billionaire)” seems like it should be disqualifying but “leftie” is a broad enough church to include tories now I guess

I like to be flexible and nnon-judgemental as far as I can be, but stanning for some old money plutocrat industrialist whose family fled s africa with a load of dosh after the end of apartheid, well that means your politics are about as left wing as Margaret Thatcher.

you're not wrong. maybe i'm too much of a softie, maybe i go about things too slow, but my guess is that a lot of the folks i mentioned up thread may have a significantly different reaction to the next spacex launch. it's mostly a tactical difference, i think.
