For real though I can't remember where I saw it but it was some insanely detailed conspiracy theory that Elon is holding Grimes hostage or has already killed her or something. This is based solely on her absence from social media, which tbh is a bit strange, since she's become a public figure she's never taken a break from communicating with fans for this long. but good fuck that doesn't mean she's dead

Kind of funny really how the whole appeal of Tesla is "electric car!" but electric cars have been around since 1890

Back when I got to Melbourne, and before I started working with Mr Musks products, someone tried to convince me to join a startup dedicated to reviving the tech behind this 1963 steam powered ford falcon.

lol matt levine
Musk will purchase $20 million worth of the company’s stock in the next trading opportunity, according to a person familiar with his plans. He’s Tesla’s largest shareholder, with a 20 percent stake.Musk is paying the SEC a $20 million fine. Tesla is also paying the SEC a $20 million fine. Is what is happening here that Musk feels responsible for Tesla’s $20 million fine, so he’s making it up to Tesla by buying some stock? But he’s not buying it from Tesla? He’s just going out into the stock market and buying some Tesla stock? Does he … think that … if he does that … Tesla gets the money? I feel like the implied message here is “Elon Musk doesn’t really ‘get’ corporate finance, so cut him some slack for tweeting weird stuff about ‘going private.’”

Is it all a cunning plan? Act weird and stupid to devalue stock, buy an extra bunch when price is low, then act smart for a while so value rises... bingo, jackpot!
(nb. I don't 'get' corporate finance.)
