Elon Musk

presidential elections have so much money in them already even elon level sums dont move the needle much i mean whats the 71st campaign ad someones seen really do for them that the 70th didnt, smart billionaires put their money into congressional/state/dogcatcher races

also I don't really think Elon likes Trump anyway, I mean he's arguably the one guy who kinda could drive engagement on the dead dumb bird site again

was pointed out that he is starting to resemble Mac's mom on It's Always Sunny, which now I can't un-see

holy shit that song. Don't Doubt Your Vibe lol this is... it's exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you.

Wow.

there's just no real way to spend the amount of money he's got access to. some insanely rich people buy megayachts that cost millions a year just to keep in service, and that's without ever even taking them out from the dock. money's mostly an imaginary construct at that point because it's no longer something that is at all linked to your ability to thrive. you don't even use money in the normal way, you just leverage assets and stock and ask the banks for cash when you want it

this has to be terrible for someone like elon who thinks driving himself to a data center and unplugging a bunch of servers and throwing them into a moving truck is a good idea. he's absolutely not in a position where he personally should be doing shit like that. he has to hate a good portion of his life, because he has to know that the honorary engineer title, the bitching about tiny details on cars, sleeping at the office so he looks busy, tweeting 24/7, none of it seems fulfilling

he really seems like a guy who wants to make decisions and do things and be congratulated or booed. that's all he's got left

as a few people have speculated something really does seem to happen to your brain when you spend so much of your life just pointing at a thing and immediately getting to have that thing. kinda fucked up that we've structured our entire society around capitalism and the dude who won the capitalism lottery turned into a miserable sack of shit who needs to be cranked out of his mind at all times

It is sadly funny that the richest guy in the world fell for all the same grievance/conspiracy shit that the economically distressed/forgotten man is supposed to fall for.

you dont even have to be mega rich there are tons ordinarily affluent people, vacation house owners, who live their lives like most people they encounter are their servants, tho im sure the effect is much greater with the richest people in the world

everyone keeps calling him the richest man in the world but it is very important that we remember he is only the *second* richest, below bernard arnault of LVMH moët hennessy louis vuitton, who make things ppl actually want and like (booze and handbags)

isnt the CYBPRFRVKK supposed to launch today

yeah the event is happening now

xxpost Sorry he's listed as Bernard Arnault & Family-- that's like calling the Jackson 5 the top selling solo artist.

Elon most definitely looks like he's Cybering with his Truck in that photo

the real richest person in the world is me

true wealth is making good* tweets

*bad

A Cybertruck customer walked up to Elon and said "I haven't slept in three days" and Elon just said "okay"

That's fine. You can just turn on the self driving feature.

Even fans don't seem to be particularly happy with this launch. Range is a lot lower than expected, somewhere around 250 mi, and the price is a lot higher than people expected, $60,000 plus for the basic model, and if I saw correctly that one won't be out until supposedly 2025 or something. I am all in for the mocking.

my coworker: "They showed it beating a Porsche 911 on a drag strip, and it was towing a second 911!"
me: "OK"

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

is $60000 the actual sticker price for the cheap version? there's something on there about the $7500 tax credit + "estimated gas savings" which makes me think the real price is more like $72000

250 miles is the range without any load. If it’s anything like the ford then expect half that for anyone who actually uses it as a truck (lol).

oh wait ok $60k is the actual price it's just listed at $49k to trick people

though it does say "estimated delivery price" and people probably aren't getting these for another 18 months so I'm assuming the price is gonna jump another $10k because that's what Tesla always does

haa

yeah best to play it safe and get an extender for your penis extension

Omfg from many posts ago i was now about snidely to type “welp that bed section is ‘ideal’ to carry more battery power,” but it is fucking what they actually are SELLING. i’m— i got nothing

as long as the mall is only 125 mi away it’s gtg already

I honestly thought the more ubiquitous they became the better people would get at identifying and avoiding scams but then I forgot that I'm an idiot

Not sure I'm gonna be able to resist constantly honking/flipping the bird at these things when I finally start seeing them on the road.

I don't think I'll be seeing them at all honestly I genuinely don't think there's a market for them

Yeah, I'm in the bay area...

our condolences

just remember, if you see one, do not acknowledge the driver in any way or look directly at the cybertruck unless necessary

At least not without those ridiculous solar eclipse glasses.

They make the cybertrucks out of slow glass. You can stare at them and watch the past.

"we are all andrew now"

feeling this so deep

Where we’re going, we don’t need … roads.

The ceremony started with Musk driving the truck on a stage in darkness and hopping into the bed to talk about it.

"It's the most unique thing on the road," he said. "Finally the future will look like the future."

John DeLorean would like a word

Finally the future will look like shit.

flux capacitor in the cyberturck checkmate bitch u got memed

John DeLorean would like a word

As would the people behind the Pontiac Aztek

when i consider the predictive accuracy of the aztek it freaks me out

every commute in that thing will end like, "dude you've blown the transaxle, you're just grinding metal...ease down."
