    In another message where St. Clair attempted to reconcile the dispute with Musk, the tech entrepreneur mostly ignored her message but said, “we do have a legion of kids to make.”

    Elon Musk, one of the richest men in the world, behaving like a welfare queen.

    In this thumbnail it looks like Musk is partially in his ex’s side of the picture?

    I was just reading a comment about the media giving favourable coverage to Musk (“admits” vs “claims”) and here he is literally being foregrounded!

    I heard he has a mangled penis from a botched penile implant. I don’t care if it is true, because it is. Also, he apparently mails people his cum. Gross. At least he’s doing it to another right wing grifter. May all they have weird genitals.

          As someone who grew up on Medicaid and free school lunch programs and shit and worked a string of shitty jobs to stay afloat, I thank my stars that I wasn’t some billionaire’s kid. They might even think that they’re happy, but you can see it in their eyes they ain’t.

          Set up to be materially wealthy and spiritually impoverished. These people don’t look happy.

        I don’t understand how it’s possible for “retarded” to be a slur but “bitch” be fine. Either way you’re turning immutable characteristics into an insult, so what’s the difference exactly? I guess there’s some contexts where it’s not as bad, like when you hammer your own hand and yell “son of a bitch!”. But as a sailor-mouth myself, directly calling someone a bitch, especially a woman, is vile to me. I don’t care how big of an asshole she is.

          Can you explain to me why criticizing her behavior requires the use of a specifically gendered insult? Does her gender play into why it’s bad? Do you mean to imply that if a man did the same thing it would be ok? Is it extra wrong because of gender-specific expectations of behavior? Meanwhile “dumb bitch” is doubly loaded as a phrase, given that it’s a phrase that’s often dismissive of women in general, or implies that the two things are linked.

            I would have said dumb bitch if it was a guy too. This didn’t even cross my mind

              I doubt that would actually be true, but tbh I’m not sure if that would make it any better, because that just sounds like you’re attacking his masculinity.

              Also, getting defensive about problematic language and denying that it’s problematic, rather than acknowledging it and trying to avoid it in the future is very, y’know, MAGA. We do not need to sink to their level.

    Two horrible people being horrible. There was this one nugget in the article which was interesting:

    In one text message exchange, provided in the filing, Musk acknowledged his son while claiming it was “necessary” for his child not to have his last name for security reasons. “If I make a mistake on security, ‘R’ will never know his father,” Musk wrote to St. Clair.

    This is the first time I’ve seen him acknowledge that people don’t like him.

      It’s weird, he already bought her a condo in downtown Manhattan probably worth millions, but she’s not seeking child support and wants full custody. So seems like the deal was she inseminated herself and got a condo in return and that was the end of it.

      So not really deadbeat, more that neither he or the mother want him involved.
