    > The above is just locker room talk which probably 90% of American men have participated in. I've found that sort of talk is vanishingly rare. It probably depends on what your par…

    That Teslas are surveillance platforms makes it that much more satisfying to flip the bird at every one that I see.

    People keep saying stuff like that, but I'd love to see some sort of evidence that it was ever a real problem.

    Trump is frustrated that Zelesnky isn't willing to go along with his plan to sell out Ukraine and make a wider regional war more likely? Good. Keep frustrating him.

    I don't believe him. Musk is in charge, but I hope that once Musk is done with his part in inflicting very serious damage on our nation and Trump throws him under the bus, nobody w…

    I know. That's why I said that I wished they'd extend the US the same courtesy they extend other nations. Trump can't force them not to, they're choosing not to.

    Nothing that DOGE (or Musk or Trump) says can be taken as truth. Without independent data analysis, we simply don't know what's going on.

    I don't know what the Verge would prefer, but I'd prefer that People not run a PR fluff piece that is obviously part of her plan to convince people she's not a piece of shit. They'…

    They're trying to distract us so they can more easily strip us of our freedom, liberty, money, and even morality.

    I wonder why they don't give the US the same courtesy they give other nations and at least provide both names, one in parenthesis. Not that it matters much, this name thing is just…

    What a load of nonsense. Expertise in one field does not mean you're going to excel in a different field. There are plenty of people with relevant expertise and equal problem-solvi…

    There's no reason to think that anything you've said here is true. Some sort of actual evidence would go a long way, but nobody's been giving any.

    He's not trying to stop a war, he's trying to continue one by overtly engaging in ethnic cleansing, and is threatening to start a couple of others with allies. That's the charitabl…

    I don't have to use the web or apps for any of that stuff. They're a convenience, but are not actually necessary for any of that.

    The grievances aren't petty. He is one man among several who are overtly and actively working to destroy the US. Buying anything related to Musk is helping to finance that destruct…

    This is correct. There is no "you get access to everything" kind of clearance. That includes the President. Congress has the power to get access to anything, but even then there is…

    We have clearly become brutal fools. I hope the civilized world can successfully defend against us.

    Leaders shouldn't be constantly hiding their real emotions, but the book he starts his essay off with is talking about 1:1s specifically. Lots of people find 1:1s to be stressful a…
