Elon should not force anyone to use drugs if they don’t want to. I like the fact he uses some of the drugs tho, since they can really help in certain aspects.
Which aspect does cocaine help with?
Coke is the only drug on that list I think is more bad than good. I guess it can make you productive and work fast and make time fly away. BUT. Coke makes people act like assholes and inflates their ego. Also can overdose easily and is cardio toxic. I tried oral methylphenidate in medical doses (Ritalin, Concerta) which is like cocaine essentially and I hate them. They make me not enjoy playing videogames and they just make me feel like a jittery robot that does stuff and make me sweat and I don’t like the comedown. I’d honestly put them in like C tier or even lower (for me).
UPDATE: Elon also said he doesn’t like them, btw. On multiple occasions. He said it makes people rude, egotistical and assholes, or something along those lines.
Why do people keep disliking my comments. Can you point to one factually incorrect thing I said in this comment?
You insulted coke heads. Coke heads don’t like that
Did I say anything that is not factual?
Not at all. But one thing I’ve learned on Reddit and lemmy is people downvote because you hurt their feelings not because what you said was incorrect.
Wear your downvotes like a badge of honor.
I see. Thank you!
Wow, so many dislikes.
Ok, fine - drugs don’t help in any aspects and I shouldn’t like the fact he used some of the drugs. Jeez
For those who feel Musty has done no wrong
Search engines are a thing, y’all. This is just one thing I found in a very brief search.
No way these guys are complaining about free crack. Lightweights I tell ya
Cocaine. Crack is for the poors. We get the top shelf shit here.
Dear Elon:
Use the real DRUG, really Wake Up from your Twitter fantasy… www.LazyWake.com
He already spent his early 20’s taking a bunch in acid in the streets of Miami.
So at age 20, he knew what www.LazyWake.com of media messages of James Joyce spelled out, or you ignoring the Lemmy media message?
Hahaha somebody doesn’t have any friends…
Surprised no one mentioned Wolf of Wall Street here yet, where McConaughey’s character is like “How the fuck else are you suppose to do this job?”. Not that its defensible, but to highlight the ethical bankruptcy of all those characters with the “step on whoever, stab whoever” results oriented approach with no moral or legal consideration.
I mean… I’ll do it
I wouldn’t. Having to be around Elon sounds like a waste of drugs.
On the flip side, it might be the only way to be around that turd.
I don’t enjoy my job, and it has led to more drinking. If I had to spend time around Elon, I’d have to be borderline comatose.
gross. i bet even when he peaks and is in a state of pure bliss, the best anyone could hope for in terms of good company is that he rambles about how great and positive and beneficial and necessary all his ideas are.
Well, they are!
think you might be in the wrong community here, bub.
I noticed, lol. I had never thought people disliked Elon so much before finding this.
Where are you from? I’ve never been to a community who likes him who isn’t actively ignoring how much of a giant piece of shit nepo-baby he is.
Let me go pick up my fedora so we can talk as equals and I’ll go.
Probably true, but it would be worth the Tesla executive salary for a little while.
To me it sounds like a dream come true.
“Do you mind if I take mine to go, Elon?”
“Why aren’t my subordinates doing drugs with me? I specifically requested it.”
“There he goes again, off to take more pills. Pop, pop.”
Magnitude?
That scene where they’re courting the rich kid and he steals it… horrifying
The actual title contains weasel language, so…
alt text/explaining the joke to the blind: An image of Lenny from "The Simpsons" kissing a box of Special K, itself a joke to the fact that Elon Musk likes to use Ketamine, commonly called "Special K" on the street.
commonly called “Special K” on the street.
on the street
lol
Sesame Street
Special K/… Nope, LSD. Twitter / X is LSD… Finnegans Wake… www.LazyWake.com - lazy Wake Up, Elon!
Damn, execs are required to do drugs and Elon still can’t keep his team together. Dude can’t even nepotism right.
Nepotism is giving positions of power to your family members, tho
I checked the definition before posting and it was good but I could be wrong.
Doesn’t make much sense to me, the way you used it. An example of nepotism might be if you gave your drug dealer a job instead of other candidates just because he is your drug dealer. Doing drugs with employees isn’t necessarily nepotism.
Ooh, a hit piece planted in the WSJ. Knives are out.
Capitalism continues to amaze. Who would have guessed new depravity could emerge at this late stage?
Chasing new highs. Depravity + literally endless money = constantly increasing depravity.
This might be a bit tin-foil, but I really don’t buy a lot of this news.
If the likes of Andy Jassy or Tim Cook were reportedly huge crack users, you could all but guarantee that there would be a VP or SVP that would be plotting a coup, and you’d bet that they’d have full shareholder approval. Musk owns most of his companies, bar Tesla, where he owns around 13-15%. Surely at this point there would be someone either internal or external that would love to own Tesla, even if just for the name?
Tesla doesn’t really have much to gain by being attached to Musk. If anything, the outlandish shit he’s got that company doing instead of fucking making the cars he’s said for years they would make holds them back.
Take the news at face value, and it paints a picture where law enforcement will be involved already. Now, take it, knowing that Musk is a deeply troubled man that lost his family and is neck-deep in the alt-right machine alongside people that can handle it far better than him, and this “news” sounds like the kind of rumour that Musk would probably spread himself to make him seem more…edgy?
If it’s true, coercing someone to take highly illegal drugs is probably a crime in the US, and probably one that would warrant the police to maybe pay these people a visit, perhaps?
I have trouble to buy this. Tesla’s shares are massively over-inflated, and it is all due to Elon’s media over-exposition from back when it wasn’t so negative. Anyone with enough Tesla’s shares and the capacity to play politics within the company understands that killing the clown means the whole ship sinks down. The correct play here is to slowly rid yourself of Tesla stock before it completely crashes, not to draw attention into him.
it’s interesting that all these stories are running in the WSJ and mainly other Murdoch rags. Failure son James is on the board - and the ol’ Dirty Digger and the Oracle of Bullshit himself were photographed sitting together at the Superbowl this time last year. Whatever is going on is being orchestrated for some reason that shall likely soon become apparent.
If a successful exit is the play, surely there’s no better reason to push an external candidate to take over? It’s an immediate exit at a high price, or an opportunity to offload stock on a positive note instead. This assumes someone comes in with the sole intention of selling to a company like Ford.
While I don’t disagree about Tesla’s valuation, people have been saying this for years and years now. When will it be true?
