Elon Musk is not a "genius" and he didn't "invent" anything. He is the heir to a the dodgy fortune of an Unreconstructed Afrikaner family who made their dodgy fortune in dodgy investments in conflict gems and blood diamonds in the South African wars of the 70s-90s, and from support of the white supremacist government of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe. He obviously never changed his politics.

He came here with his portion of the dodgy family's dodgy fortune, and INVESTED in people who did invent things (like Paypal), after which he stole the credit. The same is true with his tinny toy car company and his toy rockets company. He obviously was never a "Chief Engineer" of anything, though he is surely a "Chief Twit," a position he has obviously held from birth.

He is like no Aspergian this Aspergian has ever known. Claiming that status allows him to act like the asshole he is, then claim victimhood when someone goes after him on that point. Aspergians may often be taken for assholes from their behavior, but it's never planned as such. He plans to be an asshole.

He's following the family tradition of pro-fascist white supremacy. But for the accident of his birth, he wouldn't be competent to survive living in a cardboard box under a freeway overpass. Born on third base, he's convinced himself he hit a triple.

One of the benefits of Grasping Reality is that you read Twitter so that I don't have to. But I'd be happier if we all left Twitter forever.

Cat and Dog looks like easy stuff. This can really get interesting if you tried, say, four letter words.

Are the videos suggested by those searches for real? I can't bring myself to check... But if they are, I think the bird site really has jumped the shark and I need to turn off my account. :-|
