People on Mars by 2025

Tesla robotaxis would cover half of the U.S. population

Fully driverless Tesla robotaxis

xAI would achieve AGI

A flying car / demo of the long-awaited Tesla Roadster

DOGE would cut $2 trillion in 'waste, fraud and abuse' This one hurt us all in ways it will take years to work out.

1. But he got what he wanted - everyone's data.

All. Of. It.

9. Actually, what he wanted even more than the data- all the different agencies

investigating him and his companies to stop their investgations.

[Dave Bowman]

2. And he's not even a real politician.

3. He doesn't even seem like a real person. Are we sure he is?

Sometimes we see him glitching out on live video.

And he certainly lacks a lot of the qualities we would attribute to actual human beings.

Who is controlling that clunky POS?

6. I have posted this Evelyn Waugh quote about Trump

but it also fits Musk.

“He wasn't a complete human being at all. He was a tiny bit of one, unnaturally developed; something in a bottle, an organ kept alive in a laboratory. I thought he was a sort of primitive savage, but he was something absolutely modern and up-to-date that only this ghastly age could produce. A tiny bit of a man pretending he was the whole.”

7. Yeah, he looks synthetic. Here's what I wish for him:

[The Madcap]

10. I don't want him to even afford

The cardboard and marker for the sign.

11. Lol, I don't eather. 👍

4. Elon is still taking deposits on his long-delayed Tesla sports car that he promised would be ready in 2020.

Many depositors are struggling to get refunds for their substantial payments of up to $250,000.

5. lol. On AGI: "We'll report back at the end of 2026 unless Musk's version of Skynet has taken over."

[tinrobot]

8. Musk quote: "The ability to predict the future is the best measure of intelligence."

If that's the yardstick he wants us to use, then Musk is officially an idiot.

[Dave Bowman]

12. He sill really wants to pretend that he's that guy who can save the world. Well, all he has ever done was

nothing at all. He's a a damn parasite.

[snot]

13. I have to admit,

it infuriates me that DOGE quit before getting around to the Pentagon (which recently failed its EIGHTH audit! Talk about waste, fraud, and abuse!)

[edhopper]

14. If they did

they would have said the Pentagon needs to spend more. Mostly with Trump and Musk companies.
