But the bigger picture is sadder, and darkly funny. To me, the story of Twitter, X, and Elon Musk is the tragedy and the comedy of our world writ small, a tale of greed, corruption, and, ultimately, the hollow promise of unfettered capitalism. Our economic system exists to produce an Elon Musk, an absolute and utter individual of unfathomable wealth and resources, one man who is free, free in every sense: to do whatever he wants, to buy whatever he wants, to all but declare himself co-president of a global superpower, and it seems no one can stop him. How much sweat, how much misery, how many untold hours of toil were required of everyone else on earth to situate him there? That's the point of all this, isn't it? To place an extraordinarily slim fraction of a fraction of human beings at the top, and precisely one at the tippy top?
That's the part that makes me laugh. Everything it costs to build and sustain such a system, and there, at its pinnacle, is Elon Musk. A vacuum. An unhappy, needy, empty man, numbing himself to push through his days like so many of the rest of us poor saps below, no better, no smarter, but undeniably freer, up there, at the top of the pyramid, where he's begging on all fours for us to like him.

More children are married to adults in the U.S. than are receiving treatment for gender dysphoria. Only one of these groups is offered "protection" in my state and it's not the one that needs or wants it.

@alisynthesis @Julie I read one comment last week that pointed out that the entire GOP ground game right now is whatever Musk is doing. These are not serious people.

If I had had my baby a few months later, I would have been denied the option to have a tubal ligation during the surgery, because the hospital now believes the procedure is immoral. Each year, more hospitals are purchased by Catholic hospital systems, and a larger percentage of Americans have religious limitations placed on their healthcare. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/h ow-catholic-bishops-are-shaping-health-care-in-rural-america/

@collingwest I'm not sure about that. The fact that they don't pay shareholders means they have more funds to buy their competitors -- and pay lawyers and lobbyists to change laws. When I moved to Austin, there were non-religious hospitals to choose from, but they have been purchased by Catholic hospitals.

@aethernaut There's nothing about Russia they don't love. Strong man leader? Check. Ethnonationalism? Check. State-controlled media? Check. Throws the gays in prison? Check. State religion? Check. Military aggression? Check.

It's like the promised land for angry white Christian dudes.
