Anyone else remember a couple years ago when Musk publicly announced that he was switching allegiance to the GQP because Democrats were no longer the party of kindness? That bit of gaslighting becomes more laughable by the day. He's such a loathsome human.

Yep. He actually is becoming a real-life Victor von Doom right before our very eyes. At this point it's not hard at all to see him with visions of global political dominance, feeling as though he can topple governments in multiple nations that refuse to do his bidding, like a Bond or comic book villain come to life. Destabilizing democracies throughout the world, and with his vast wealth it's all just fun and games for him. Not that he will necessarily succeed in all this, just that he seems to be relishing the role he's playing right now.

Well at least I now know that Super Mario Bros was indeed the reference. What does that have to do with Musk? And what would be the funniest thing in history?

Google tells me that there's a rocket ship thing in one of the games? Is the idea to Slim Pickens Musk to Mars?

OK, got it. I typically enjoy subtle wit like that. Alas, it landed flat on me. Doesn't mean it was bad, though. Seems pretty clever in hindsight.

It might have landed a little better if it was written as "find some guy named Mario to take inspiration from his cousin." That includes a reference to the premise and is thus more accessible, while retaining the obliqueness that is vital to the joke
 
Sounds like there are some Trump staffers who got themselves over their skis. My guess is that they were floating a trial balloon to gauge the old man's reaction.

Should be relatively easy to carve out a lot of sparsely-populated and physically large states from Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, the Yukon, and rural British Columbia…..say, 20-30 states with 3 EV’s apiece…..Voting like the Dakotas.
 


A ton of responses to this are to call him a liar, an anti-white racist, etc. A variation on the Pizzagate playbook all over being actively directed by the richest man in the world who also happens to be a top (ever present) advisor to the incoming POTUS and nominated member of the government.



But Afzal has a (recent?) history with Musk
