So this article just popped up on my guardian feed…wild stuff. I’m not a fan of Musk but you gotta admit this is pretty interesting.

“I’m not sure it’s necessarily legal in all jurisdictions,” Musk said, adding that the prototype was “not necessarily a safety optimised car but it takes the fun meter to 11”.

FYI if anyone was curious this "collaboration" is actually just his way for muddying the waters between Tesla (who is hemorrhaging money) and SpaceX (who is propped up by Gov Contracts thanks to his political connections) and Xhitter (a way to avoid political campaign contributions tracking).

The dude knows Trump is losing power and his money can only keep him out of trouble so much and he fucked up mixing money/resources between companies.

Literally going to be another Elizabeth Holmes.

Thank you, this is what i was thinking too. Rumor is Tesla gets folded into Spacex at some point.
