Weirdo

i cannot believe that people called this moron a genius. i will genuinely never understand this - was it the memes?? what the fuck

the paper of record thinks everyone who reads it is stupid

and it's going to be maintained by robots! yeah, elon has the mindset of a child

“And uh then we’re going to capture the lunar energy to fuel our catapult to launch these satellite back into orbit…” <SNOOORRTTTTT>

how many goddamn satellites does this guy think we need

If I had a room temperature IQ, an addiction to ketamine, and the social skills of a mop bucket, do you think the NYT would be writing fawning articles about how much of genius I was? It’s only the fact that Elon has obscene amounts of money that he isn’t treated like the unhinged crackpot he is

My thought exactly

😁

I think he must be a little obsessed with Heinlein. And you know he actually wants to bomb Earth with it.

I am all in favor of Elon trying to catapult himself into space.

At some point the media needs to start reporting Musk for what he is: a snake oil salesman that’s out of oil.

An actual pic from the presentation.

That catapult system can be used against America or any country by launching rocks at the earth... you should read The Moon As A Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein for more details

So when he said "For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus", he was referring to his employees.

Elon Musk shouldn’t be allowed sharp things.

This is totally moronic. A catapult??? Clearly they need to use a trebuchet

Let’s not forget this is the guy who doesn’t understand the thermodynamics of a vacuum, wants to breed as many people as he can, has littered low earth orbit with debris, blows up rockets monthly, and gives Nazi salutes. In short, he’s a charlatan and a clown, and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

This is obviously insane. Remember Hyperloop? Remember we’ll be on Mars in 2026? Remember his rocket cars? Remember his dodger stadium transit promise? Remember his promise to fix Flint’s water crisis? Catapult this man into the sun

Choosing to be credulous every time Elon says he’s going to build the dumbest thing ever is indeed something the NYTimes continues to do.

Tell me again, why have they never set foot on the moon again??

Oof.

I have a proposal for a test subject for the catapult.

He finally lost his last marble.

I’d like to put him on that catapult.

Oooo what else did the Nazi pedophile conman say

Musk doesn’t believe in corporate communications. Why should he when the NYT is his willing mouthpiece?

I wish the drugs would do it to him.

You don't need to share everything this drug addled nazi with a weird dick says.

So it’s true that ketamine is a hallucinogen…

It was the kickoff to his first jab at a comedy 🎭 routine.

Hey NYT, please stop taking this snake oil clown seriously. Thanks.

Nobody knows what to save, but we can all agree it's not Elon.

I was just listening to one of my favorite songs of his, "B Movie". At first it seems super-specific to the moment Reagan was first elected, but update the names and references and it could have been written yesterday. youtu.be/6JvpNY1QHzs

Wow! The Musk Rat is delusional AND a fascist. Even more reason to ignore what he says.

Uh, why would you print this except as part of a roundup of “Stupid, ketamine-fueled bullshit that Elon has lied about for decades.” He is 100% not going to do ANY of that, any more than he’s gonna fix traffic with single-lane car tunnels or shoot people at supersonic speeds through vacuum tubes.

So any questions for him about what stops him from launching shit at us with that catapult? Cause thats 100% something Elon would do

Its Time for him to go.

what he should be telling them as he’s going to prison for a long time because he touches children and he likes to distribute porn child porn!

If it means Musk goes to the moon to supervise the construction, I’m all for it.

Little off-topic but why is this man so obsessed with white replacement and white supremacy when he looks more Asian than some Asian people I’ve seen

Even if this did deserve it's own article, which it does not, shouldn't the headline reflect that fact that none of this is remotely possible in the next decade, and even if it were achieved, would offer nothing to humanity "Con man tries to keep his stock prices up by offering rosy future"

I love when the Paper of Record takes everything an insane, unstable billionaire says at face value

You mean he wants to pay someone to….

Captain K is overdosing again.

bsky.app/profile/tesl...

Nazis will try anything to avoid labor laws

Why is his Ketamine rotted brainarrhea even worthy of a single line in a paper? Other than he rich af? Do some actual journalism instead of ruminating his press memos. I hope you got at least some ad money from printing this high-fi nonsense.

Can you stop publishing the bullshit this blowhard says

We should let him go for this as long as he agrees to go there himself

The guy who’s been promising robotaxis “next year” for over a decade? Nooo, he’s so very credible. I would want a new category for news, like “old white man says”, and then you can just group all the nonsense quotes into a single page and move on to real news.

💯

The submarine case should have destroyed all his credibility in the media

He's already late for putting a human on mars, too

This is a really good point. Imagine breaking your own 🍆 and the. compensating by polluting space with thousands of 🍆 🚀 substitutes. What an alpha!

He's received more government assistance than any person in history. Seems like the government should just nationalize SpaceX and the Tesla charging network.

he'll pop an aneurysm if he does anything altruistic

Sounds...profitable.

How is this 'news'?

The GOP twice dipped by a scammer. AI can run the gov and Mars is doable. Yet he still has gov contracts.

"6 year old says his dad is going to buy him a tank that he plans to drive to school" Who gives a fuck what this lying pedophile has to say

Man, that's dumb. <gets to the catapult> Eh, let's see where this goes.

Isn’t he on his way to Mars? Or did we miss the launch?

BREAKING: White supremacist pedophile just be saying shit

"Same catapult will launch humans to Mars to my new colony." Added the billionaire man-toddler.

Musk is such a weirdo flake. It's no wonder he ended up so close to the trump-Epstein-Thiel orbit.

also hyping up credulous investors prior to a SpaceX IPO and justifying the merger

What’s he going to do? Is he going to claim the whole moon under the “discovery” doctrine (Luna Nullius instead of Terra Nullius) and then claim the valuation of SpaceX should be > $1 octillion (10^27), so as to justify insanely high valuation of SpaceX?

is this creepy little racist the biggest weirdo on earth? just pay your taxes

"A catapult to launch them into space" Yeah, that's called a RAILGUN. The richest man in the world wants to build and own the world's largest RAILGUN. Presumably on an island with a dormant volcano, for the esthetics.

I mean, I get why really, but it's just insane what a corporate cult of personality that whole enterprise is

Awesome -- when is he taking his first trip over?

He says a lot of things. I hope he builds his catapult and I hope he gets on it.

Well, to be fair he is indeed a lunatic.

I have told everyone I know about my goal of dating Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio at the same time and that eating one pint of Ben and Jerry’s a day will help me achieve that goal. I too should be taken as seriously as Elon Musk’s pronouncements

Only if he is the first one

youtu.be/goh2x_G0ct4?...

Is he taking ketamine again?

If you’re only his father had launched him into space in October 1970 🤷‍♂️

Looney Tunes-ass plan

Elon Musk is a Nazi.

Any more full of shit and this guy would be an outhouse.

Why not, what’s the worst that could happen

Can he move there please…and take Trump with him.. One way trip for research purposes obviously 😉

I've read some stupid sci-fi in my time but this beats all.

He’s the villain in any story.

Doesn’t he own SpaceX a rocket company? Since when are catapults capable of launching things into stable orbit?

🙄

Do you think we’re stupid?

For too long we have overlooked wealth-related mental illness.

When a rich person says some dumb shit you don't actually have to report on it. It's still just a person saying some dumb shit.

Eat shit fascists

Shoot that broken dick Nazi on a one way trip to the Moon.

I’d joke about this and laugh, except that he can do it and do whatever he wants with it. I haven’t noticed that he’s benevolent.

My first thought as well! ..."You first, buddy"

what he wants is your hard-earned taxpayer money so he can have a hobby

This motherfucker can't build a car that doesn't leak when it rains and you think there's a possibility he's gonna do *manufacturing* on the moon?

Definitely Howard Hughes mental decline territory here.

Ok but is any of this even remotely likely to happen

What will they do with all the moon's green cheese this will displace??

He can just use the rainbow bridge that I'm building to the moon. DM me if you want to invest.

Yeah and I want a solid gold water fountain with an infinite supply of chocolate milk. DM me for my number so you can do a feature length story on my very real innovation

As long as Musk has to do it in person and his O2 runs out.

Who fucking cares, the guy's absolutely full of shit. You credulous 🤡s

here is an article about it: www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...

No, I don't think he should go up alone I think he should take the current administration and their supporters with him.
