honestly idg what is so bad about him. mostly seems like a clueless millionaire who wastes his money on futuristic vanity projects like electric cars and stuff. it's not like he fabricated lies to get us into the Iraq war or personally had a hand in the surveillance state or legalized torture or something. ppl that actually did those things are celebrated as heroes.

I did find it a bit hypocritical that this thread was celebrating so hard when grimes started dating George W Bush

I love that boat story upthread, it’s more PB Shelley than Twain tho

Everyone in the PayPal mafia should find a muse.

maybe I'm in the minority but I don't find her very sympathetic in that article. "other men only liked me for my small waist, but elon musk gave me his credit card to buy books, and it was true love" is like bad YA novel shit

He looks happy like a billionaire who just bought an expensive Marc Chagall.

Oh my god

Every picture I've seen of Grimes and Elon Musk is giving me horrible flashbacks to seeing my friends in our Vampire: The Masquerade LARP dating 35 year old libertarians in leather dusters with katanas who parked on the Denny's sidewalk while blasting Closer by Nine Inch Nails

F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:14 (five years ago) link

that's a lot closer to 35 than the LARPers the tweeter was referring to! and a lot more of an adult than people are implying with stuff like that

challops trap house (Will M.), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:14 (five years ago) link

i mean. i assume. idk. twitter irony or w/e. i literally knew teens who were dating mid-30s vampire ephebophiles back in the day and this is all the way NOT that

challops trap house (Will M.), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:16 (five years ago) link

has the phrase "(x) is cancelled" ever been more appropriate

flappy bird, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:18 (five years ago) link

yeah that’s not that, that’s an indie artist who built her brand through woke socialist concepts dating a billionaire libertarian who believes public transport are eeek full of mentally ill people willing to kill you.

yeah i mean calling her a hypocrite is fine, it's the comparing her a defenseless child/ingenue/whatever that is super gross, like, this is an adult making adult-ass decisions

challops trap house (Will M.), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:26 (five years ago) link

despite her acting like a total 10 year old

what's that kink where the person acts like a child and calls their partner daddy?

it's all over instagram now

*googles*

an adult who chooses to act like a 10 year old is still an adult, idk what yr point is

Musk and Grimes in the conference room.

how's life, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:33 (five years ago) link

man alive seems bummed that grimes is dating elon musk

definitely lots of gross comments itt, but it is newsworthy/worthy of discussion/i understand why people are so flummoxed, even upset, because Grimes' ethos seems completely at odds with Elon Musk's. which whatever, it is what it is, it's just jarring for now.

flappy bird, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:36 (five years ago) link

i'm far from upset btw

saw her at fyf a few years ago

twas fun

but ya

Oh, completely deserving of an early death as well, don't get me wrong.

don't idealize celebrities and you won't be upset when they do things you don't like

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:39 (five years ago) link

an ILM without gross comments about female musicians has never been the ILM i've known though it's less frequent now, the herd's been thinned and certain posters (myself included) have grown up.

she can do what she wants, also maybe we shouldn't speculate even passively about whatever went down w/her previous relationship, all things considered.

omar little, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:39 (five years ago) link

i find it unfortunate, that this is how ILM remains.

it's a favour to a fellow ilxor tbf

shouldn't lock this thread but i do encourage liberal use of fp

imago, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:49 (five years ago) link

i'm sorry for derailing the thread everyone, love you all, no excuse, gonna stop talking abt it now

challops trap house (Will M.), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:53 (five years ago) link

ok so seems like the exact same kind of celebrity gossip that ilx does every day but i guess there is an ilxor involved? just saying to someone who didn't know that nothing in this thread scans as objectionable

kinder, gentler (sleepingbag), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 17:56 (five years ago) link

there's an elon musk thread in ILE can we take it there instead

aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 18:04 (five years ago) link

lol yeah i mean obviously but it's still surprising & disappointing at some level. people feel very connected with artists and Grimes is an eminent millennial artist, with a history of activism & advocating for liberal/leftist causes. so intellectually yeah, it's easy to say "who cares who she dates/who she's seen with," and even if you don't care that it makes her look like a hypocrite, it's just disorienting, like one of those mr. krabs memes.
