If it's true that he's never failed a drug test at SpaceX, then this is just a nasty smear without any evidence, only trying to kick him out. There are a lot of people that are afraid of what Musk could do. Musk must be over the target lately, getting so much fire.
There are a lot of tricks and masking agents and timing. Just because he hasn't publicly been caught doesn't mean it's not true. And where there's smoke, there's fire.
Is this smoke, or is it just some people wanting to paint a narrative of smoke?
"Execs and board members at SpaceX, Tesla, and other companies run by Elon Musk are concerned about the business impacts of Musk’s persistent drug use."

You think his execs and board members are all conspiring and gunning for his job and ouster?

You make a good point, I admit that. I could be wrong, as I've seen him smoke weed on Joe Rogan's show, but even at the time, he seemed hesitant to do so. But at the same time, there are always outside pressure that can be put on the execs and board members with whispers. Like I said, there are a lot of powerful people that don't like that they won't be able to censor people on Twitter any longer, just ahead of the 2024 election, just like they did in 2020. Does anyone remember the 50 intelligence officials that all signed off on the Hunter Biden laptop being classic Russian disinformation, even though they all knew that was false? That was all bs, and everyone that wasn't paying attention bought it hook, line & sinker.

Musk has publicly admitted to smoking pot (and has done so on-air). He also has publicly said that he uses ketamine. He claims that he has a prescription for it (?) from what I've read; that sounds fishy to me, but whatever.

Matthew Perry had a prescription for ketamine too. Plus, more. Now he's dead.

Ketamine isn’t than unusual of a medication to be on for treatment of depression…it’s not a first line treatment, but I know a few people who have done ketamine treatments.

I think Musk is under fire a lot lately because his behavior has been so out there. Is it drugs? I hope so, because if he’s like that sober he’s got problems. His companies are well known and huge in their standing. The US government uses his rockets for our travel to space. A lot of people drive his cars all over the planet. He makes satellite’s and lots more stuff. The biggest social network was Twitter. He has a LOT of power and he’s kind of a nut case.

The execs of these companies seem to think he has a persistent drug use problem and are worried about the Impacts of his personality on the company’s they help run. Apple fired Steve Jobs and the company bombed after that. He was known as a drug using ego maniac as well. They got so desperate without him that they hired him back. They say there is a fine line between a genius and a crazy person. I think there is some truth to that. Both Musk and Jobs were known as the vision guys. They saw the future and hired people that could help them get it done all while insulting them.

Elon having a normal day, tweeting that airlines shouldn't hire black pilots because that'd be DEI racism and will lead to planes crashing.

I tend to put stories or links about "the media" in here. This one shows a chart of trust in various media sources. I found it interesting.

Neuralink’s first product would be called Telepathy, he said in another post, adding that its initial users will be people who have lost the use of their limbs.

“Imagine if Stephen Hawking could communicate faster than a speed typist or auctioneer. That is the goal,” he wrote.

I know a guy that had an implant that controls his Parkinson's. It works. Apparently, his battery ran out recently and his symptoms came back!

That makes a lot more sense to me than some random dude being able to send emails directly from his brain. :P

Imagine what happens when you accidentally open up a malicious email.

I've had a couple of pain doctors recommend spinal cord stimulators but my surgeon talked me out of it. Said for every one he's seen put in, he's seen one taken out. Granted this is about 10 years ago, i'm hoping the technology does get there some day. They can be very useful in regulating pain.

I had a heart valve replaced. They did the full blown open heart thing sawing my sternum in half and wiring it together after. They collapsed my lung to make extra room to work with. That hurts. I might need to replace that valve in a few years and now they say they can go right up a blood vessel from your groin to the heart and put a new valve inside the old one. No evasive open heart crap.

Man beheads father and calls for 'war on US federal employees' in sick YouTube video
https://www.the-express.com/news/us-new ... -mike-mohn
A man has been arrested after uploading a video of his father's severed head and calling for US federal employees to be "killed on site."

"This is the head of Mike Mohn, a federal employee of over 20 years and my father. He is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country," he continues.

In the video, Mohn said: "The federal government of America has declared war on America's citizens and the American states. America is rotting from the inside out as far left woke mobs rampage our once prosperous cities, turning them into lawless zones.

"Taxpayer dollars are printed and used for anoything but the taxpayers with little to no accountability, which has inflated the economy to near destruction and has made it so most Americans can no longer afford the American Dream."
