Trump take tofu. Got the last packet just now before closing. It’s been like this at each of 3 different stores I’ve been to in the last week in L.A. Even at peak pandemic panic buying I don’t remember tofu out of stock like this. Has thrown SoCal supply chains all out of whack with his goon squads.

Horrifyingly vile turn of phrase. That is also reminding me there was a spoof art project satirizing gun culture from an ad agency years ago called Flower Shell that imagined seed distribution by gun with seed packed shotgun shells. So real men could garden by shooting the ground.

From Tesla protest in Santa Monica earlier today. Was wearing my new “Trans rights are non-negotiable” shirt. First time seeing a counter protester with their own pro-Elon signs at one. I made sure I stayed long enough to outlast them, as did many others. Was lot of honks of support. #TeslaTakedown

We push a bit more & some of the eternal Tesla bulls, retail investors that treat TSLA like a meme stock & help drive up valuation far beyond fundamentals, could start folding to cut losses, & really send it spiraling down to earth. They’re starting to sweat, seeing copium charts like this one.

From Henry Ford to every council & state house far right local politician car dealer, to congressman Darrell Issa’s car alarms, to Elon & Trump selling cars from WH lawn, I feel there is something rotten in the business of cars that it gives rise to so many fascist & fascist adjacent figures.

Has he ever once made a product feature promise on Twitter that was actually fully realized to the specs and capabilities he boasted of to fool investors?

Think I’ve finally figured out getting live stock tickers embedded into my Notion pages and looks like working on mobile and desktop.
Notion is the wiki building/databasing software I’m using for my site, a tool I’ve become familiar working in for documentation & project planning at work.

It was helpful of Elon to give us a scoreboard with real time daily feedback on our success. The ability to instantly show results is a great incentive for boosting participation. #TeslaTakedown

I have not yet put together something in good purely print out readable form like zine yet, but site I created for compiling info on what Elon is doing, I have QR code for it I stick on corner of protest sign & people can click through link from phone pics. I also made one for Tesla Takedown site.

I’ve created a site for cataloging, dating, tagging info & news about what Elon is doing & why he & by extension Tesla should be protested. Started as simple spreadsheet I shared when asked why I was picketing Tesla. Plan to continue adding to & evolving it. www.stopeloncrashtesla.org #TeslaTakedown

Was looking at various efforts to archive tweets of Elon outside of platform itself, including past deleted snapshots, for possible analysis, as one does. Most efforts cutoff when API locked down post buyout but by chance clicking around PolitiTweet, landed on this one. Hasn't aged well. #FAA #Elon

From Tesla showroom at the Santa Monica Place mall today. I was joined by a few other picketers for a while, & I stayed from noon to 4p. Were definitely a few haters stanning Elon but I think I got the most fist bumps in a day than I ever had before in my life. #TeslaTakeover #FuckMusk #SantaMonica

I’m planning to picket Tesla again. This time in front of showroom at Santa Monica Place mall, @ south end of the promenade, tomorrow 2/15 @ 12p noon, if any want to join. The entrance is on mall private property but are windows into the showroom from public sidewalk at the corner. #TeslaTakeover

Having left Twitter when he first acquired it, I hadn’t realized how much he recently also popularized and frequently uses “subtard” short for subhuman r*tard. So many eugenicist red flags.

I marched from noon to 4pm without pause around the perimeter of the massive Tesla charging station in Santa Monica with an anti-fascist & anti-corporate oligarchy playlist on a megaphone. #FuckMusk #FuckTrump #Telsa #SantaMonica #LosAngeles

Short notice but planning to picket in front of the large Tesla Supercharger station in Santa Monica tomorrow Sun 2/9 around noon. Had prepared to go solo but looking for comrades. If down but can’t make it tomorrow I’m interested in potentially doing this again. #FuckMusk #SantaMonica #LosAngeles
