It’s amazing how fundamentally he misunderstands what social media is and why people use it. It’s like someone buying a soccer team for 250% of its actual value and then getting all livid that the players can’t use their hands

Yeah, I do call AsiaKitty 'the problem child'...what with all the A's she gets and academic and sports awards she wins, so maybe you are right. She got an F once on some quiz where she did all the math backwards by mistake. I posted it up proudly on the fridge. "Right on, Asia! Glad to see you have finally started to RELAX a little :)"Boy, did THAT piss her off!I laughed more.12 year olds are so easy to tease. Actually, I think she was 10 then.You should see when I get dressed slowly."Mom, you are gonna make me LATE!""Yeah, but Asia, you don't want to ALWAYS be on time. They might get used to it."But as soon as she starts posting under a name like "schlongdong" I'll selling those damn Foo Fighter's tickets on Craigslist.org !!!!― BurmaKitty (BurmaKitty), Thursday, March 13, 2003 11:35 AM (nineteen years ago) bookmarkflaglink

I'm just about as sick of reading about Musk as I am about Trump, and many sites I've read have replaced Trump with Musk as new bete noir.

if Musk is depriving Trump of media attention, then I can live with that trade off. Musk is much less dangerous to my mental health.

According to the video of the incident that Musk posted, the member of the Musk security team confronted Collado sitting in the car wearing gloves and a hood. “Yeah, pretty sure. Got you,” the Musk security team member can be heard saying on the video.
What took place between the two men before they arrived at the gas station is unknown. There’s no indication in videos shared with The Post that Musk’s children were present.
