    What’s the opposite of “news”? Because “news” implies things/stories/topics that are new.

    Would “olds” be an acceptable term?

    Don’t know why the media keeps using words like “allegedly” and “reportedly” when there’s plenty of photographic evidence to eliminate the doubt. It’s no secret this moron is a junkie.

      “Allegedly” and “reportedly” are magic words that keeps the lawyers away, since no media company actually wants the liability of being an authoritative source of information.

      Because it’s standard

      None of this shit is new, Biden had them ignore it, and so did trump the first time.

      Biden should have yanked every single contract, instead he made multiple and constant exceptions for Musk’s companies.

      The CEO of a company with government contracts blatantly spiraling into drug induced psychosis did nothing but normalize it.

      Like, why do people honestly expect trump to be better than Biden? Why would you ever think trump might possibly do the right thing after Biden wouldn’t?

      trump and Biden might both be bad in the same areas, but Trump’s admin will always be worse.

      Isn’t there also photographic evidence of cocaine use by world leaders? The very idea in an age of cheap-as-dirt fake AI “photographs” is hilarious to me.

      This is not how ketamine makes people behave.

      A shot of tequila won’t make me shit on your doorstep, but 5-6 bottles in an hour who knows what’s gonna happen.

      There’s a difference between use and abuse.

      Musk has not been using it medically, even if he paid a doc to write a prescription.

      Depends on the dosage. More than a little but less than too much and your body becomes that of a drunk toddler. But yea most people using ket are chiller than him lol

        It doesn’t turn you into a psychopath. This dude is just a piece of shit who happens to like ketamine (and has the resources for basically infinite supply)

    I wish Trump would take some shrooms. It might make him more human.

    The sad thing is, I think his sentences are a little more complete and coherent than Trumps’ even in his drugged out state.

          It’s actually pretty hard, unless you’re like Matthew Perry and you’ve got a doctor administering it to you in the bathtub (while on a cocktail of other substances). You’re going to become incapacitated long before you can administer enough to yourself to end your life… It will fuck up your bladder if you abuse it long term though (and apparently he’s having these issues).

          The LD50 for ketamine is very high, which is why it’s used as anesthesia for toddlers.

          The real move would be for his provider to just slip a tiny amount of fentanyl in there…
