I did not see this published outside of India. But not sure why. It’s all based on Xitter.

Musk may well be going mad and I certainly hope he is. I hope his lack of recognition and watching his empire crumble is eating him up inside.

But Seth Abramson is not a reliable narrator let alone "biographer" whatever that means. He has a very long and storied history of embellishing facts, or placing too much weight on rumours and extrapolating way too much from them.

Except nobody chose him. He bought his way in.

Don’t forget this guy bragged a few years back about not sleeping or sleeping in his office. Let’s not discount how years of sleep deprivation has probably influenced his chaotic behavior.

I don't buy that shit for a second. He can't tell the truth if he wanted to. Back when he made these claims, overwatch just launched and he spend all day on twitter telling people he works 20 hours a day, plays a lot of overwatch, binges 6 different animes, and spends a lot of time with his family.

Someone who cares about him needs to take him off the internet permanently.

As a loyal subject to HRH King Charles III, I propose agent 007 for the job. For King and Country.

Maybe he could stop doing things that lead people to hate him?

He's a ketamine abuser, so it checks out.

Short-term side effects of ketamine use may include headache, dizziness, sleepiness, feeling strange or “loopy,” difficulty speaking, numbness, blurred vision, or nausea. Ketamine may also cause changes in blood pressure and heart rate.11

Studies show that unsupervised ketamine use may have serious health risks.1 These include respiratory depression, which is dangerously slow and shallow breathing. A NIDA-funded study found that problems related to ketamine use reported to poison control centers increased 81% from 2019-2021. The use of other drugs along with ketamine, especially opioids or GHB, another club drug, led to the most health problems, some of them life-threatening.12

Long-term, heavy ketamine use is associated with memory problems, depression, and anxiety.13 At high doses, ketamine may cause psychosis, a mental illness that causes a person to lose touch with reality. Frequent recreational ketamine use can lead to delusions that can last to up to one month after a person stops using it.14

Long-term use of ketamine may cause gastrointestinal problems, including abdominal pain sometimes called k-cramps5. Ketamine use can also cause ketamine-induced uropathy, a treatable but potentially serious condition that causes symptoms like those of a urinary tract infection.15,16

From NIDA.

The overwhelming majority of billionaires keep quiet and keep to themselves, doing everything they can to stay out of the limelight. Elon is someone who simply cannot shut up and will not stop attracting negative attention to himself.
