Authoritarianism is winning.

My bad, she did not draw attention to herself whatsoever. In fact she hid in secrecy for months until he didn't uphold his end of the agreement.

Work is work, but yea calling attention to herself is pretty dumb NGL.

For sure, nobody smart would take the deal with Musk. Only a dumb hateful person. But dumb hateful people still deserve safety and honesty, even if they don't dole it out.

Now that's not fair. Not everyone has the privilege to flip off Musk in that scenario. I do but most wouldn't. I don't blame Woht24 or any of the women Musk lured in.

I gave up my top tech career for about that amount, I'm privileged enough to do so. So absolutely yes. Check my post history where I burned bridges with xAI lol.

This lady is probably being lambasted through the media as a whore, death threats, legal risk, etc. So yes just to meet with the guy and put my life at risk I would abso-fucking-lutely need a shit ton of cash. Musk is one of the most dangerous people alive.

He promised $15m and $100k / month. Would you honestly sleep with Musk and carry the weirdo's kid for any less? I'd need $20k/mo just to have dinner with the guy once.

Of course, not being a billionaire is illegal here.

"Think of the Children Gun Safety Reform Act", a 1,000% tax on guns. Guns now cost about $10-100k each.

Maybe normalize bringing a camera then? Photography is not banned.

WaPo strikes again with a plausibly deniable disinformation title, using the word "skeptic" wrong on purpose. I expect nothing less from Bezos.

I think we can be for sure, religious skeptic is an equally ridiculous term. It's like saying I'm a teacup-around-Saturn skeptic. In any reasonable meaning of the word "certain", "truth", or "sure", the teacup and any deity do not exist nor play any role in our lives. They deserve no consideration except for niche discussions in philosophy and epistemology. We should use the teacup example even in that case, not the deity one.
