If they offered that thing in colors - they probably have a hit. The last few times I've been visiting my folks in Dripping Springs there is a red CT and an Army green CT and they look really good.

That's like saying a nice lip gloss on Listeater would make her hot.  

The answer is "no".  There is no color that would make a Cybertruck look anything better than butt ugly.

 But…every single wrap I’ve seen, including school bus yellow, does make it look better than bare stainless.

But you're still paying $80,000 for a "truck" that was designed by 12 year-old me in the 1980s after watching Damnation Alley (RIP George Peppard and Jan Michael Vincent) when that same $80,000 will get you a really nice electric Ford F-150 that can haul bigger loads.  Or even a regular F-150 that is loaded.

Or a really nice sports car.

Elmo's such a moronic snowflake he can make Chris Cuomo appear sane

Cuomo revealed the DM he received from Musk on air.

“I don’t think Elon was confused,” Cuomo said. “I think he knows this is what works on social media because he designed it to work this way. Why else would you appear to blame a murder of Mormons on Jews right after the event in such an incendiary way, a reckless way, a way that should not be amplified to 200 million followers.”
 
Cuomo said “tech bros,” including Musk, have “made the biggest fortunes in media history peddling the worst of humanity to humanity. There will be more violence, don’t be surprised, because certainly Elon and the others know why.”

How is this surprising to anyone? 

So anyone have any illusions about China having all our Doge data belong to them?

Elon Musk is leading a pressure campaign to make Netflix un-woke

Quote

Elon Musk says he canceled his Netflix subscription and is telling others to do the same over the presence of transgender characters in series that made their debut (and in some cases ended) years ago. Earlier this week, Musk reshared a post on X attacking Dead End: Paranormal Park, an animated series geared toward kids, for featuring a transgender protagonist.

“This is not okay,” Musk wrote in just one of his posts targeting the show and later reposted an image claiming Netflix has a “transgender woke agenda. He added, “Cancel Netflix for the health of your kids.” The first season of Dead End: Paranormal Park aired on Netflix in 2022, but it was canceled in 2023.

Musk only continued stoking the right-wing firestorm since then, with the billionaire calling on followers to get rid of their Netflix subscription over other series with trans characters, like The Baby-Sitters Club, which was canceled after two seasons in 2022. He also responded to a post critical of a 2023 episode of CoComelon Lane depicting a child trying on a tutu and tiara. “Super messed up for a kids show!” Musk said.

Right-wing influencers have ramped up their attacks against diversity in media, with some even criticizing Netflix for having more lead characters and directors from underrepresented groups. At the same time, the Trump administration has deemed diversity, equity, and inclusivity (DEI) programs “illegal” and banned gender-affirming care for children. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has joined in on the pressure campaign, too, claiming Netflix is “pushing woke Democrat gender ideology.”

 

Quote

Media companies are under increasing pressure from the administration, of which Musk was recently an employee. Brendan Carr, who helms the Federal Communications Commission, has already compelled companies to remove DEI policies and loomed over Disney’s decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel Live! While the FCC has less direct leverage over streaming services like Netflix, backlash from right-wing influencers and figureheads like Musk has a very real impact on its business.

Companies were already downplaying trans representation before that, though — with Disney reportedly pulling an episode of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur for putting focus on a transgender character last December.
