    Trump: “Jump!”
    Musk: “How high?”
    Trump: “Get as high as you can!”
    Musk: “I am already as high as I can, I wanted to know how high I should jump!”

      Sadly, I think it’s Musk doing the commanding. Knowing as much as I do about Musk’s philosophy, that’s not a good thing. If Trump wasn’t fascist enough, Musk certainly isn’t going to help.

        I have no doubt they are empowering each other in a sick feedback loop.

        I had a friend that was always into guns but was normal about it. Then he started hanging out with this other gun guy. Within a couple years they were both psycho gun nuts. He started sleeping with a loaded the gun under his pillow. Even though he had a five year old son. To quote “He isn’t strong enough to cycle the slide so it’s ok …”

        I noped out of the friendship after that.

          Sleeping with a loaded gun under the pillow. If somebody wants to kill you, and is in your bedroom while you’re sleeping, then you’re going to wake up to a bullet going through your brain, before you go back to sleep permanently. A gun under the pillow doesn’t even make sense in the gun nuts paranoid delusions.

          One my old friends became a cop. He would leave his service Glock in it’s holster on his belt, hanging from his computer chair. While his then 7 year old daughter and 9 year old son ran wild, with no supervision.

          “They know not to touch it.”

            Did he forget that kids will go out of their way to touch it. I remember when I was a little shit, I did a lot of things I wasnt supposed to do. I only got caught for the worst ones.
