I almost could agree in principle that’s how it might work, but as a person living in a monarchy (UK), they literally just protect their own and the establishment, every time. The status quo isn’t apolitical but deeply conservative.

Abolish all monarchies!

Biiiig dollar!

Oh I know, just having fun with the optical illusion. :-)

Directly wired to mains electricity? Spicy!

If you don’t mind me asking, are you AuDHD? 🖐️ Or is this an ADHD kinda thing too? 😅

Ha you beat me to it!

Plot twist: Turmp announces $40bn Russia bailout. 😬

“How did I just do that?” you may be asking!

Please, allow me to elaborate further:

Like this:

Satire does not require satire these days.

Sorry that’s too much effort!

It wouldn’t have required much effort to determine that effort does in fact require effort.

Unfortunately these things do require more than zero fucks.

Names like that are not common here.

Besides their real family name is “Saxe-Coburg and Gotha” but it was changed to Windsor in 1917 due to WW1 resentment towards the Germans.

At least we got the following joke in (famous British TV series) Blackadder:

“Look, I’m as British as Queen Victoria!”

“So your father’s German, you’re half-German and you married a German?!”

Particularly as we’re probably planning to prosecute him ourselves in Britain. It’ll take a while but people here are pissed off that the “punishment” so far is to be stripped of some bullshit titles and get to live as an immensely wealthy member of the public. He’s going to prison because wealthy pedos are universally detested here and he can’t become president in order to dodge prosecution.

What gets me is that Musk isn’t even particularly clever. I don’t understand why so many people are so swayed by his alleged intelligence? The guy is a complete muppet and should be being called out for his obvious idiocy a lot more often.

Honestly I’m only moderately clever (I got a computer science degree once upon a time lols) and I would absolutely trounce Musk in a discussion about almost anything of any seriousness. Not because I’m necessarily “cleverer” than him but because he’s operating in a delusion that he’s some kind of super-intelligent genius when he categorically is not.

He’s not even as clever as many of the people I know in my immediate friend circle, who would wipe the floor with Musk any day.

Meanwhile Musk’s thinking process lacks one critical thing (among others) - honesty!

His thinking is too internally dishonest and lacks the self-reflection for him to be anything other than rigid in his beliefs and delusions about himself.

As a martial arts person of only medium stature, I also know that whatever seems big, strong and rigid can quite easily be overcome by embodying the complimentary opposites of those (or any) qualities.

You bet Musk is terrified of empathy and “woke” because a few hundred million people deciding we care about each other a lot more than we care about him would be enough to topple him and his ilk almost overnight!

Even their bunkers and cryptocurrency stashes won’t be enough to save the billionaires at this point. They all sense they’re swimming in a pirhana tank but they think they’re too special to get eaten.

They are gravely mistaken - there will come a time when they are rounded up and killed. We may not live to see it, but the ultra-wealthy know that day is coming and it’s only a matter of time.

They also know deep down that the only thing they need to do to avoid this future day of reckoning is to give away their billions, help people, just be a regular part of humanity!

That they won’t do this tells enough about their operating intelligence levels.

They are addicts. No amount will ever be enough!

As an addict myself, I pity them, because I can grow the servicing of my main addiction in a plant pot these days.

Dunno what I’d do if my addiction was likely to result in billions of people following me to the ends of the Earth with various sharp and pointy agricultural tools.

I would not be a billionaire… for any amount of money! No sane or intelligent person would allow themselves to become a billionaire without rectifying the situation in haste.

They are far less intelligent than they think, and neither time or history are on their side.

Particularly when there is a global population who already don’t have as many hopes and dreams left to live for. The distractions aren’t working so convincingly any more and we can’t eat AI generated food.

The billionaires are a coming season’s dinner.

Yeah we’re all wired up differently! I’ve noticed that weed has the “opposite effect” on me to most other people, including many ADHDers I know. For me, as long as I’m not already exhausted for the day, its my number one productivity aid - which is convenient and also pretty annoying since it’s not always possible to have weed!

I think it helps me because it brings me back into my body and out of spiraling thoughts which make it harder to get things done - I’m a lot more focused. It makes me better at almost everything.

It works so reliably, for so many years, I don’t even question it any more. Still, its very helpful and yet annoyingly so. It’s not legal where I live.

Does weed count? Helps me get a lot of shit done!

I laugh but actually this is The One that really works. If only it were possible!
