"Everything Musk thought he was making better, he made worse."

While this is in reference to his Ukraine Starlink debacle, you could actually say the same for pretty much everything he's done, ever.

Actually, I'm fed up to the teeth with anyone asking 'why' any of these evil motherfuckers do the things they do.

I don't actually care why. Because knowing why will not stop them.

The only thing that will stop them is relieving them of their money and their power.

I'm a little tired of all this asking 'why' Elon Musk does things.

People who are that rich, with that much power don't live in the universe you live in.

There is no logical answer to the why.

They do things on a whim, because they can, because they get stupid, cruel, awful ideas and they have bought their way into an existence where there is absolutely no one around them who will tell them.

The only cure for this is a few years of poverty.

Not my favourite Thai curry, but very tasty for duck

@aral I honestly don't even miss it anymore (I did for a while). But now I don't even bother clicking on links that lead there, because without a 3rd party app, the place is a sewer.
