Founder of Tesla, SpaceX, The Boring Company, and Grokipedia. Yup, I did all those things and more! I also had cameos in Iron Man 2, Why Him?, Machete Kills, and (voice) Men in Black: International.
Some days I read a TLI (Three Letter Initialism) and I just can't work it out. Other days it just takes a few minutes for the coin to drop*. So consider spelling it out even if it's obvious to you
*Do coins drop anymore? When does that phrase become obsolete?

I’d blame it on the later Fred Astaire movies where Astaire and a much younger actress fall in love, but I’m guessing most of the Epstein crowd can’t dance

I think South Park got away with a lot this week just by saying it was deep fake which is wild because South Park itself isn’t real being an animated show and all

One of those days when I got into the shower with my glasses on. One day I’ll decide that’s a good way to clean them and that will be the end of me

You always used to hear about spies or people who might wind up behind enemy lines wearing chunky gold bracelets because you could take off a link and use it buy things or services from the people you might meet. Do diplomats going to the White House have similar bracelets when they meet Trump?

So today I see that I can have both Jesus and loved one who has passed away on my phone. I'm not sure I want a smart phone anymore. I think I still have a rotary dial phone in the basement somewhere

If I'm voluntarily taking a survey and the first question is "What is your age?" then I'm done taking that survey. I might answer if they give you a range of ages like 30-39 to choose from. At least, if they asked that first then I haven't wasted my time with the rest of the survey.

I wonder if someone who is producing a Trump posting on Truth introduces mistakes just to be more Trump-like? Weird punctuation and capitalization are expected. Maybe they have a filter or that screws up a last name (Sommers vs. Summers) or some other mistake. End with some business letter phrase

I guess this whole Epstein thing has been educational. Got to learn about "ephebophelia" and also "teleiophilia." Also the Tanner scale. It was easier when I could just say someone was being creepy

My brother and I were discussing a game show we had watched as children and only vaguely remembered. A quick look on Wikipedia gave us the name and YouTube had some videos. Would have just suffered with incomplete memories without modern technology and the internet

I like that I can say "What news from Stalingrad?" and a bunch of people online are suddenly taken back to a thread on clothing criticism from Ireland

One of the online stores I've dealt with in the past has alerted me that Black Friday/Cyber Monday starts now which is a shame as I don't even remember eating turkey yesterday

Whenever people start tweeting about aurora borealis/australis or some other natural light show, my first thought is either Day of the Triffids or Night of the Comet

There are Miracle Mile Mall/Shops in Minneapolis, Stockton, Manhasset, Las Vegas, Coral Gables, and Los Angeles. Not sure how they're doing or if we should invade them or not.

The only way any of this makes any sense is they know Trump isn't long for this world (like a couple of months) and JD Vance is the world's greatest sleeper agent

Why is it that everyone can see the Democratic senators traded the cow for three magic beans except the senators? A totally meaningless vote that won’t even give them a bean stalk

The death of Paul Tagliabue reminds us how infrequently the NFL changes commissioners. People younger than 65 have only known 3 or fewer commissioners
