We were once so close to heaven
Peter came out and gave us medals
Declaring us the nicest of the damned

The new season of Top Gear looks like shit.

I got a Community notification for this?

Precisely. Think of all the design goals Mr. Musk has proposed. How many of them are actually realized?

I declare that there cannot be a more aptly named EV vehicle than a Charger.  Fight me.

lol what a load of horseshit. Playing the victim. ‘Oh we are just fighting for free speech that’s what I meant. We won’t bow to being censored!’ jesus fuck NO ONE IS CENSORING YOU. People choosing NOT to advertise with your business is not censorship ffs. Can this guy just take his billions and fuck off

I don’t see a walking back or an apology or an admission that he was wrong. I see him obfuscating and trying to pretend he didn’t say the thing everyone saw and heard him say. In addition to telling advertisers to go fuck themselves, repeatedly, he also stated that advertisers NOT advertising on his platform were…

You’re assuming Elon actually cares about sustaining and growing Tesla, which he demonstrably doesn’t. He cares about his white supremacist hobby horses and petty grudges, which makes the two of them a perfect match.

Oh my god I saw people campaigning for RFK last weekend. It was nuts. Every single one of them looked, not just like a crazy person, but like an extremely unhealthy, badly malnourished crazy person.

Trump is the biggest shit-talker I have ever witnessed - always overpromising and underdelivering.

First Gear: Donald Trump really only cares about two things, money and having people give money to him. As such, you’d think he’d be trying to win over someone like Elmo, who just got $56ish billion richer, and who directly benefits from increased EV sales.

Gotta admit, that was fucking hysterical.  

... or Weird Al coming in to cover something!

If I recall correctly, by the time I logged in that fateful day the plug had already been pulled on the spot.im experiment. I just heard people talking about it. It was like arriving in town the day after Godzilla came through.

You know the answer already.

Even if you only count Elmo’s successes, he was already vastly overpaid. He’s already been paid $11 billion - how does that stack up? Alan Mullaly, Ford’s most successful CEO in modern times, earned $200 million in salary and $300 million in stock options for his entire 7 year tenure of saving the company from…

The irony is that if he truly was a crusader about building eco-friendly products and doing the stuff to truly fight climate change — electric cars, solar roofs, clean manufacturing, etc — Tesla’s sales would probably be 3X what they were last year, and all the other businesses would be going like gangbusters. But he…

Bullshit. Elon Musk is why I don’t own a Tesla. And I’m certain I’m not alone.

I’ll allow it.
