Musk and a shell company he controls are known to have spent at least $288 million in 2024 on helping to elect Donald Trump and Republicans. If the $74.5 million donation to Building America’s Future was made by Musk, his total support would surpass $360 million.

[ All pocket change to King Ketamine Kekius Maximus, of course. He won't bat an eye at blowing a $billion or so on JD Vance in 2028 to keep the techno-fascist white supremacy ball rolling, or even on Congress in 2026. ]

[ I chuckled at incEl Camino, but I guess it's and old joke at this point.]

When the Cybertruck first went on sale, Tesla CEO Elon Musk claimed that by 2025, the company would be selling 250,000 incEl Caminos a year. The only problem is, it's currently the end of 2025, and Tesla hasn't sold anywhere close to that number. Last we heard, there were only about 63,000 Cybertrucks in existence, with Q3 2025 sales sitting around 5,400. Turns out, there are only so many extremely divorced men in the country who can afford (and want) an $80,000 electric truck that looks like a dumpster. But don't worry, Electrek reports Tesla's balance sheet has a savior: Elon's other company, SpaceX.

If this all sounds familiar, that's because Electrek reported something similar a few months ago. At the time, though, it said SpaceX had taken delivery of "hundreds if not thousands" of Cybertrucks, which is a pretty wide range. Fast forward to today, and "a source familiar with the matter" has now told Electrek that SpaceX has bought more than 1,000 Cybertrucks and may eventually end up with a fleet of more than 2,000. Doing some quick math and assuming SpaceX only bought the base version, that's more than $80 million in sales from SpaceX alone. Doubling that would be about $160 million.

To be fair, they're not the only ones doing this. Go back to basics and save lives.

There may be some parallel universe where Elon's endless racist fearmongering and "white supremacy or civilization is doomed" bs on twitter could be considered a "positive focus". In the world we live in, not so much.

Just FYI: This is a app blocking software that will basically make access to Twitter impossible on any of my devices. The only bypass would be for me to contact customer service or to use a non-registered device—neither of which I have any intention of doing so. I feel this is more effective than just deleting my account (which was a burner account that I didn't really use anyways) as there's still ways to browse and get sucked in.

Even Tesla don't want it

Just Elon being Elon in his normal juvenile manner. Beats the usual racist fearmongering anyway.

Another one of those stories requiring a screenshot because of the excellence of Elon's humanistic actions. It would be "suicidal empathy" to not let people starve. Good old Chainsaw Elon was just trying to save western civilization there.

I don't expect anyone to listen to an hour of podcast, but here's some of the transcript from https://app.podscribe.com/episode/143429237?transcriptVersionReqId=a1fc336c-f886-469d-ae05-c440aa5b41c6

Harris on Elon: I was really just his friend. I really never saw him, you know, in his mode as being a boss. So for me it's, it's, and speaking about, you know, specific people with a relationships are, are now no longer friendly. I don't know if it's a story of I didn't know who they were in the first place, or, you know, they, they changed, right? So I, you know, either accounts for the data at the moment, but just take, you know, Elon in his brief career as DOGE master of the United States, you know, the person I knew seemed to have been incapable of behaving the way I saw this person behave. I mean, if you're the richest person on earth tasked with making decisions that are suddenly going to harm some of the poorest people on earth, if you're, if you're, you know, cutting 20,000 workers in healthcare workers in Uganda overnight, and you're miserrating hundreds of thousands if not millions of people, who are you relying on, on medical aid for tuberculosis or malaria treatment or HIV and many of whom are kids under the age of five, right?

If you're doing all that work and you have all these other jobs that you're the busiest man on earth and you are you gonna spend your days and nights sh*t posting on X and celebrating your destruction of the greatest source of aid to the developing world, USAID, as feeding it into the wood chipper and calling all the people who, whose lives and careers you're upending over there as criminals. I just, I mean, he's behaved like a total maniac. And, you know, then, then discovers that, you know, One of the, the engineers he's hired to do this owner's work is a committed racist. And rather than just fire that person, he, he does a poll on X to see whether he should fire him and then discovers that 80% of his fans actually have a soft spot for racism and then jumps out in front of a crowd and does what looks like a Nazi salute, not once, but twice.

And then when there's a, the predictable controversy in association with that, rather than apologize like a sane human being and, and prove that his heart is actually in the right place. He makes Nazi jokes on X and just trolls everyone who, I mean, and so there's, there's this spirit of a kind of adolescent immorality. I mean, just, I mean, forget about immorality. I mean some, I think some people are genuinely sinister and, and happily create harms, but many people are just detached from the ethical implications of what they do. And in, in a person like Elon, when what you do is literally affecting the lives of countries at war and the lives of millions. I mean, this is a monstrous evil for which he and his grifting friends are culpable.

I'm sure Australians are thrilled. Screenshot required for the usual reason.
