1. Mr Musk says something stupid on Twitter

I know. They’d probably stick square wheels on the cars.

He better be dropping acid daily.  I don’t want squares running automobile companies.

Now THERE’s some exposed fastners

It is most likely a really really bad pun.

it’s indicative of a whole stupid culture built around him and people like him, a culture that elevates smart rich guys like Elon to such an unrealistic level of ardor that they become insufferable dipshits

Hot Take:

“Stayed out of the way” is a perfectly valid and laudable response to the “what have you done to help” crowd in cases like this. 

Okay, I’ll take a stab at it. Off the top of my head:

Thanks!

Their labor policies do seem to be really poor, it’s definitely my biggest beef with them.

I dig what they’re doing, technology wise, but vilifying American union labor while building $70k cars in a tent is enough for me to become disinterested in what they have going on out there. 

That’s a strange argument to me. You could say that with anything. “To stop accountants from embezzling, pay them more.” “To stop cops from taking confiscated money, pay them more.” Whenever there’s an opportunity for someone, especially someone young, to make large sums of money with a single action, you have…

;former d3 player current youth coach (dust shoulder off) I like and agree wit a lot you said. I have tried to convinced our organization to convert our U-10 An day U-11 teams to flag and keep our U-12 and U14 tackle but to no avail. Also we teach that hawk tackling video

Thanks for the thoughts from experience! I played 4 years in high school. One thing my coach always taught us was to play with your head up, and one thing that constantly pisses me off watching college or pro is head-down tackles.  Aside from the fact of injury possibility, how many times do we see these guys trying…

Former Big Ten defensive back here (graduated w/in the past 5 years, not some old fart who’s mad that footbaw isn’t played the same anymore) - I really like this rule change by the NFL & I hope the NCAA adopts the same. We all understand that football is an inherently violent & dangerous game, but this move should at…

From this rule leading head first into space - which is what an offensive player is typically doing - wouldn’t be a foul because they aren’t doing it to “initiate contact”. But there are definitely times when offensive players do seek out contact with their heads “try to deliver a blow” and if the rule were enforced…

A compromise then, perhaps? I’m basically an uninformed slob, but maybe a soft Kevlar contraption with a face shield? As long as these guys have hard plastic shells and metal face masks on their heads, their going to use their heads in ways they shouldn’t. But I was in no way suggesting I’d like to see more head…

At this point, you almost feel sorry for the guy. The fact Tesla publicly announced his name is akin to calling the Tesla cult to action. Tripp & his family needs to find some witness/whistleblower protection before he ends up dead.

Nice to see someone is standing up to billionaire bully elon musk..will be interesting trial to follow.

Why do we reward people for talking smack about their famous exes, in the hopes of causing career harm.
