CW: Bullying, Mention of Someone Calling Someone Else a Pedophile, Submarines, Claustrophobia
We’re answering a question from our lovely listeners, and this ended up being a 2 parter! This half discusses what the hell is going on with this man— is he like, okay? (Answer: no) Why buy Twitter? Why constantly sink into the mire? What minority opinion is putting him on a pedestal and raising him higher than he should be? 

We talked about how Elon Musk uses Twitter on this episode, and we did that because you can really use Twitter as a method of watching him descend into the weird place he’s at now. So let’s just start with his weird takeover of Twitter.

And here’s a timeline of “Twitter U-Turns” as Time tells it.

We talked about the Tha Cave Incident where a bunch of young boys got stuck in a cave for 11 days. For one thing, I accidentally said 2012 in the episode so I’m correcting that to 2018. Second, here’s this to explain that to you in case you don’t remember it.

And here’s the interview with one of the world class divers who came to help rescue those boys. We quoted him in this episode when he was asked about Elon’s tiny submarine idea.

And Elon just dug his heels in until they went to court.

Here’s what we know about Elon saying he uses Ketamine for his depression and recreationally.

And because I don’t expect people to just know how Ketamine works or to just take my word for it, here’s a great article talking about how it works on your brain.

Finally, we’re talking about the Simulation Theory and how Elon thinks we live in a simulation. So what is that? Here’s a relatively simple explanation.
