just got a copy of Mario Sunshine for the secret new Nintendo system called Big GameCube. It's just a GameCube but bigger. Miyamoto says only I can have one because I'm his special boy
Finding out that Elon Musk was forced out as CEO of PayPal in favor of noted vampire Peter Thiel bc Elon Musk was adamant they keep it named "X dot com" instead of Paypal unlocks so much. His space company, his literal child, and now Twitter: it's the world's most inane Rosebud. He actually bought back the URL, like a cherished childhood sled (owning the right to name a website the letter "X")
Some people told him it made more sense to have their banking company have a indicative name instead of generically being called "X" with vague allusions to being The Site For Everything, and he'll prove those fools WRONG by getting the same things yelled at him over a different website's name twenty years later
For twenty two years he's been stewing about people telling him PayPal was a better name for a payment site than X. He was so invested in X dot com at the time they waited to hold the vote until he was on vacation. He has been furious over people saying "it's better for our site to have a name that tells you what it is instead of a letter" since before 9/11. This is his entire life

Pictured above: the only moment Elon Musk has ever been happy, before it turned to all-consuming rage and envy over a single letter
Apparently the official name of SpaceX is the "Space Exploration Technologies Corporation" and they originally wanted to abbreviate it S.E.T. but he decided on SpaceX. He loves X
I'm guessing Tesla was spared the X-ening by dint of the fact Elon Musk didn't found Tesla (he became the largest shareholder the year after its founding and sued to get retroactively added on as a "co-founder") and also bc comparing himself to Tesla flatters him, since when I look at someone who bought someone else's company and sued to get the credit for creating it, the turn of the century inventor I think of is Nikola Tesla
That wasn’t even his plan!! His plan was to make the senator a mutant, so he’d have to advocate for mutants or be destroyed by his own policy, and tbh. It’s the best villain plan I’ve ever seen. The goo was the plan unexpectedly failing. 9/10 only bc he was going to kill Rogue. Next time use someone willing to sacrifice herself for the cause, pls. No further notes
no but my friend once got contacted by the fbi because on twitter he jokingly said he was going to send kamala harris to the shadow realm and he got reported for it or something. the person working on his case realized that it was really stupid and started laughing at having to be explained everything but it scared my friend so bad
really dont think the fbi needs to involve themselves in matters like this tbh its a waste of state dollars and VP Harris is one of americas greatest duelists if any body can beat her in a duel and succesfully send her to the shadow realm then we stand no chance against them anyways
