But remember, what really made him Elon Musk—the megatitan who commands the ears of politicians and executives, became a global name with an inescapable suite of companies, and stood distinct from other wealthy founders—was his eagerness to take on a seemingly impossible mission: to weaponize American industry in the fight to mitigate climate change.
It was his hijacking of Tesla Motors in the mid-2000s, for which he raised money, forced out existing employees, designed and kickstarted production of the pioneering electric Roadster model, and secured a hefty government loan, that kept the company going as the financial crisis shellacked the automotive sector. He further invested in the then-burgeoning domestic markets for solar panels and energy-dense batteries, and spoke out about why addressing climate change was a motivator for his business. He even inspired other environmentally conscious celebrities and encouraged them to boost his profile, putting Tesla models in movies and all. Yes, the space rockets, intergalactic dreams, and NASA contracts played no small part. But it was part and parcel of a futuristic goal that also included lots of green tech, including sleek gas-free cars.
…
Even beyond business considerations, however, Musk has gone full-on Republican in the Biden years. He took over Twitter, restored Trump’s account, and turned the platform into a cesspool of hateful content and right-wing propaganda—including, but hardly limited to, climate change denial and disinformation, which he now tends to endorse.
…
Musk may wallow in the fame and power his climate advocacy brought him, but he no longer cares about that pet issue, or the fact that it’s why he’s in his position to begin with.

He's one of the biggest voices discussing how dangerous and suicidal US foreign policy is at the moment and he was headed to talk at a Russian security conference, seems pretty obvious.
After he openly came out against the Iraq war explaining that the justification was a lie (he was a UN weapons inspector at the time, not just some commentator) he got caught on some noncing charge which I'm still not sure the details of, whether it was legit or whether he was stitched up to discredit him (similar to Wariat it relates to talking to underage girls online).
The justification for his passport being seized is supposedly that after the noncing charge he's meant to give 21 days notice before he leaves the country, though again it's not clear whether he actually did or didn't do it.

This has been ongoing for two years and he's committing a crime here. When no one else calls him out you become part of the problem, and I'm sick of people saying he's okay when he keeps messaging me asking to meet me and for sex when he knows I want nothing to do with him. He asked me how my dad was knowing he's dead. I don't expect anyone to call him out but I want you to know I am judging you.

What about a kayak? I don't know if you could use a net from one. I haven't used a net either but in a kayak I at least don't worry about getting hung up as much as from a bank.
Very dangerous on the ocean but people do it in shore

It's still going? It busted a lot of people's pipes? That's nice lol
It's not about increasing pressure. It's about purposefully sabotaging key points in the underground water system to fail systematically. (one failure causes more pressure on another area, which causes a failure, which causes more pressure on another, leading to another failure, etc.)
And yes, there is literally FOUNTAINS of water pouring all over the streets of Atlanta. Businesses are ruined.

she's always been one of my favourites, along with that Russian girl from ambassador21 who's on the complete opposite end of the spectrum

What do you make of this? She wasted a lot of years with viking larpers.
I never really followed her after ToT, I remember not liking Leaves Eyes.
I remember the first few ToT albums were good, kind of neoclassical style, then they got really weird and into space and UFOs and synths and shit. I still liked Liv but the actual direction they went in was bizarre

I don't normally post music because I'm not so self-important that I think anybody gives a fuck what I'm listening to…like in some other threads…
But does anybody know Liv Kristine? I think a totsean got me interested in her. She was at one point one of the best female singers period with Theatre of Tragedy. Then she got married to some guy and started this gay ass Viking larping band called Leaves Eyes. I think they got divorced and she did two solo albums that were better than anything she has done in years 😦
I was telling kinkou about her the other day

So Candace…pork chops? Idk if that's too close to chicken.
These aren't breaded but it's garlic, salt, pepper and turmeric. I like putting mustard on them if I grill them but turmeric is close. I want to try adobo. Wbu?
The other stuff is mozzarella cheese with a little cauliflower mixed in.
silverware in the frying pots and pans hahahaha you need to make a food thread don't edit anything
