thats... not inside a tube?

the cult around this guy is baffling, except for paypal i've yet to use anything he built.

What u haven't been to space lately ur not srs?

my friend works for SolarCity, which he strongly corrects me about. it's not run by Musk, he says. it's Musk's cousin.

Elton Musk

I see at least 1 Tesla per day

And there's usually only 3 parked at the dealership

I don't know what I'm getting at with this

idk, the cult of Musk makes a lot more sense than the conventional tech wisdom that the uber dudes are visionaries. i mean, he's trying to get to space and build a train that goes 800mph, the appeal of these things seems obvious even if you don't share it.

Teslas aren't sold from the dealership. You order one, they build it and deliver it to you.

Elon Musk is a living indictment of our broken economic system

yeah idk there is no tesla dealership, maybe you saw a place with free charging stations

I think my friend with a Volt has been optimizing his routes to be able to charge his car for free while drinking

I mean, ducking in for a drink. Probably not a good idea to drive too close to him, just in case

There's Tesla showrooms in a few places. There's one in a mall near here. On one of the upper floors, no less, which just seems weird.

“As we danced at our wedding reception, Elon told me, ‘I am the alpha in this relationship,’” Justine, who was wed to the mogul from 2000 to 2008, wrote in a Marie Claire article. “I shrugged it off, just as I would later shrug off signing the postnuptial agreement . . . Elon’s judgment overruled mine, and he was constantly remarking on the ways he found me lacking,” she continues, saying he told her, “If you were my employee . . . I would fire you.”

Sort of what I'd expect from a billionnaire called "Elon Musk"

if this isn't technically a dealership, it is at least surrounded by dealerships and occupies a space that was previously a dealership

but yes, they seemed to only have one of each model type available for test drives or something. which is a bit hilarious because the lot is huge.

didn't even build this - it already existed at another company that his company (X.com) merged with.

pls tell me someone strapped Musk to the nose

isn't there a left wing podcast you should be listening to?

pls tell me you have better things to do than harsh my buzz, comrade

idk I think it would be a win-win

okay that was fucking cool

the car + the 'don't panic!' thing was a little gross but w/e

the boosters just coming back home to their own separate landing pads was the best part imo

Welcome back lil guys!

yeah the booster landing was amazing, the live footage from the rockets themselves was boss

coworkers were watching this across the row from me.

main comment i heard was "lotta white dudes"

as much as i loath this kind of thing as an early example of advertising/marketing in space, i have to admit this is kind of riveting
