What bothers me most about the hagiographies tech journalists wrote about Elon Musk for 20+ years is that they universally framed him as an intelligent man.
He's not.
He's an undereducated, intemperate, incurious, prejudiced, unwise, narrowly skilled dolt who is willfully ignorant on most topics.

Looking at how Independence support has been changing during 2024, it's clear that under 35s have the highest level of support at 73%. But the 39% of the over 55s who support Yes are almost the same number of Yes voters. The steady increase among this group is an excellent sign.

In two years time another 100,000 pensioners will have died. Many through cold winters in fuel poverty. This pro-union demographic is shrinking fast every year. Not that they matter, since 57% In unweighted polls now demand an end to Scots' captivity in the UK.

When I use the term 'The Golf Club Set', I do so in a disparaging way.
Everything old fashioned, sexist, elitist, 'traditional' and stuck in the: 'it's always been this way', status quo.
Like it or not, Scottish Golf in 2024, is the preserve of Rich folk.
