I am in no way saying Musk = Trump, I'm must saying don't dismiss him from whatever because he's not actually successful, an obvious moron, etc. etc. etc. He has resources (more than Trump). Like Trump he just keeps his name in the media on end and appeals to a certain demographic.

must = just

not really sure what were talking about now but i stand by my statement that he has no personal charisma, and furthermore hes currently in a tough spot

lag∞n, Friday, 20 May 2022 23:54 (one year ago) link

Yeah the obsession w/ the media is a big similarity, iirc there was a story a couple years ago detailing just how hard he works at keeping any negative stories out of the press. Like he would personally hound and threaten reporters who had anything negative to say about him or Tesla, nearly everyone who works for him claimed they have to sign crazy NDAs, etc.

Anyway he’s now trying to crowdsource a legal team through Twitter which I am guessing means a bunch more stories are about to drop

frogbs, Friday, 20 May 2022 23:56 (one year ago) link

That would be great.

thing about musks media success is basically him and the business media were made for each other theres nothing they love more than the idea that enterprise will save the world, that was his sweet spot, he fucked up when he went full celebrity cause the celebrity media will eventually turn on you thats part of their practice, now this political shift is just very dicey, i mean unless he just wants to become some shitty right wing figure, but its not going to help with selling cars, theres a reason ceos usually dont do shit like this, theyre not trying to alienate half their customers

Tesla is building a hardcore litigation department where we directly initiate & execute lawsuits. The team will report directly to me.

Please send 3 to 5 bullet points describing evidence of exceptional ability.

i've been watching succession season 3 this week and i can't help but think of kendall. *kendall gets owned* kendall: ok. ok, let's play offense. we need to dominate the conversation space, we're not even talking.

Bruce Stingbean (Karl Malone), Saturday, 21 May 2022 00:17 (one year ago) link

lmao kendall is so lame, incredible portrayal of a weird useless rich kid

lag∞n, Saturday, 21 May 2022 00:25 (one year ago) link

read a piece lil while ago about the resonance between succession and on cinema

is this the piece? https://www.polygon.com/22832955/succession-and-on-cinema-media

for some reason, i am a regular polygon checker, i'm not sure how i missed that

Bruce Stingbean (Karl Malone), Saturday, 21 May 2022 00:29 (one year ago) link

i dont remember but i cant imagine theres more than one of them

With subscriptions funded by the HEI Network, and supported by his loving wife Toni, Heidecker unveiled one tremendous plan after another — there were Hei Points, which Heidecker described as “the U.S. dollar 2.0”; Hei-lot Season, in which his various friends make pilots to run on the network; and perhaps most grandiose of all, the Hei Ranch, which at the moment is 25 acres of sand but will, after a 10-year plan, be a fully functioning society.

even just reading on cinema summaries is almost as good as the real thing. if only elon could be more like this, rather than like kendall

Bruce Stingbean (Karl Malone), Saturday, 21 May 2022 00:31 (one year ago) link

When was the last time Tesla shipped a great new product?

Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 1 June 2022 14:11 (one year ago) link

I mean, I like Tesla! But -- they came up with a thing a while ago, they've been doing the thing. I guess maybe there's going to be a truck but it keeps getting delayed?

Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 1 June 2022 14:12 (one year ago) link

theres not going to be a truck, at least not that "cyber" truck

lag∞n, Wednesday, 1 June 2022 14:13 (one year ago) link

wonder if tesla had an intervention to convince him no one wants his weird childs drawing truck
