numerous people claim to have witnessed him use LSD, cocaine, Ecstasy, and mushrooms behind closed doors
It's amazing that he can do LSD, mushrooms, and ex and still have zero empathy.

Those substances are empathy multipliers, unfortunately multiplying 0 always yields 0…
If his brain doesn’t possess the ability to empathize, there’s nothing for those substances to enhance.

Yeah, that was my first thought that he really hadn't because unless he micro-microdosed or just said he did to be "cool", which is on brand for him, there's no way he did hallucinogins and still came out the other side like that.
From my understanding he's a big proponent of the simulation theory, so he's probably cool with being a shit person because it's all a simulation anyways. I'd wager that he sees himself as a player in a video game and he's going for high scores.
Who the fuck can take simulation theory seriously?
gestures generally around
But his idea of simulation theory and most of our ideas of simulation theory are not the same.
He thinks it means there are no consequences.
We all know it's means the consequences might be simulated but they still suck.
Which is asinine. As currently, there is no way out of the simulation if that is even true, so you're stuck with the simulation consequences no matter what. Which means you might as well treat them as real because they are to you. We should have cleaned up better after WW2 somehow.

I’m surprised Ketamine isn’t in this list, I thought it was his drug of choice this past year?
I really doubt Elon is who he is and uses acid or shrooms. That just sounds like reefer madness nonsense to me.
To be fair, this said behind closed doors. He does the ketamine out in the open, claiming it was prescribed to him.

Oh you're tired? You're enabling fascism and you're fucking tired? You're endorsing human trafficking and all you are is tired? You're profiting off of the complete dismantling of our fucking country and the best reaction you can muster is walking out of a meeting beacause you're TIRED???
Go suck a fucking barrel.
A shy guy who desperately wants to be a nerd's nerd somehow gets tangled with the party of RAM truck buying adult frat bros who see themselves as "alpha". I just can't figure out the culture fit, and articles like this don't surprise me at all. Like, isn't Trump the kind of guy who would endlessly bully someone for saying they play videogames at all?
There are two main types of "conservative" now. The old school big truck lovin', god-fearin', beer guzzling, anti-environmentalist yeehaw types, and the "newer" 4chan-posting, edgelording, neckbearded, gamergatin', crypto-lovin' internet troll types that have arose in the last twenty-five years with the proliferation of the Internet. Elon is trying to fit in with the latter.
"newer" 4chan-posting, edgelording,
You mean asmongold grandpa?
^ This. Never forget, Trump's first term was pushed to success by 4 chan. He is and always has been a 4chan president. He is the emolbodiement of everything /b/
Im tired of pig fucking fascists regardless if they're funny or not.
You're telling me the guy who thought this was hilarious, isn't funny?
Yeah, that tracks.
Edit: For anyone OOTL he walked into Twitter HQ with a sink and tweeted "Entering Twitter HQ - let that sink in!"
Keep in mind this is the absolute funniest he has ever been. A pun with a punchline and no setup.
The best he has ever done is get 50% of the way to a mildly funny joke. With his trademark inability to read the room on top !
(and don’t tell me that’s because he’s autistic. I’m autistic, we’re disadvantaged in this domain but we can learn to do it all the same. He either doesn’t know or doesn’t care, most likely the latter.)
Fellow autist here,, here's my funniest Elon moment:
The cybertruck reveal, softball pitch into the window.
Musk audibly gasps and says 'O-oh myfuckinggod.'
Comedy gold.
That moment, right there, that was the high water mark.
Then, the window cracks, and shortly afterward, his entire general public facade and reputation begin to crack and shattet as well.
I do appreciate a visual metaphor.
I don't know.
He did just recently get bullied off a livestream because he bought an account, claimed to be a world class PoE 2 player, and then died to a tutorial boss.

I've never seen anybody put that much effort into a pun.
Puns are never very funny. The best you can normally hope for is a small chuckle. And yet he went with a full, big, heavy prop for a tired pun.

I'm a killjoy: I doubt that this article is accurate, or if it even matters. I think articles like this exist to placate. I wouldn't trust anything that a "senior administration official" tells Rolling Stone.

I’m a bit confused, cause Trump isn’t funny. It must be awful to be in a room with either of them.
Trump is funny to conservatives. The kind who laugh at the attack helicopter joke. Elon isn’t even funny to conservatives, which is kind of impressive.

He's so used to being the boss and having everyone always laugh at his shitty jokes that he thinks he's funny.
He's not a politician and has no charisma or any way of getting people to do what he wants outside of ordering them to, which is why he'll never do well in politics where building and maintaining relationships in your coalition is one of your main jobs.
I don’t believe anything what this Administration says.
They are definitely NOT "tired" of his money though.
"behavior has caused several high-ranking officials to walk out of important meetings and sincerely question if he was high on drugs"
Bet you dollars to donuts that he is, so, yes.

The richest man in the world isn't trying to help you. He's helping himself to whatever he wants. Super bad idea.
I choose to see the good in Elon; he may have finally made the cheese hat too cringe to wear.
As a wisconsinite this deeply upsets me
Your culture is wrong, I'm sorry
You don't like cheese?
Cheese is food not fashion!
¿Porque no los dos?
Can you eat the so-called cheese hats?
No, the cheese is a lie, the crimes never end
I have unironically seen an edible cheese hat. Check mate
Very well, I withdraw my complaint against that one specific champion of truth
Not to mention the constant k-hole he seems to be in
