At least some of his achievements were more accurately portrayed.

Grok boasted that Musk had the “potential to drink piss better than any human in history,” that he was “the ultimate throat goat” whose “blowjob prowess edges out Trump’s”

This timeline keeps flipping between "dumber than a sack of rocks" and "strangely entertaining" multiple times daily.

Yeah, I don't think I would have ever guessed in a million years that we could have a legitimate headline like:

World's first potential trillionaire's artificial intelligence claims he can suck a better dick than the president.

The saddest part is that some one will take that shit as a fact.

I know a work colleague who does. He sees Kethamine Karen as a "visionaire" and someone who really knows his stuff.

I can certainly believe that Musk is smarter than a centuries-old corpse.

He's fitter and smarter than Donald, but neither LeBron nor Leonardo.
