Insider sources say Trump may allow Musk to look at a rhombus if he behaves himself

What about dodecahedron?
it sucks
terrible shape
bring back rectangle
Fucking lol. Bet this is just another way for Elon to grift some more sweet sweet DoD money. Suddenly the army is going to "need" 10k milspec cybertrucks at $10million a pop. You know, for efficiency.
Eventually Trump's gonna go in front of the media and say something like "We gotta get new missiles. Elon's making new missiles - future generation hyper 100 times sound so very, very fast. $500 billion contract to HyperMissile..." There's no information about HyperMissile anywhere. But HyperMissile.com was created the day before and the only thing on the website is a ginormous poop emoji.

Ah, Musk has fired me as head of marketing and hired you instead. Drat.
It's so easy to predict what Musk will name his things lmao
Surprised Tesla isn't renamed AutoX and when he does planes AeroX.
WeaponX is also extremely Musky for a weapons division.
SeX for reproduction
Wasn’t that the naming scheme?
Model S
Model 3
Model X
Model Y
Edit: I had no idea Tesla actually made the model Y since it looks exactly like the model X but is bigger
Wait is that for real? So cringe 

So much commitment to a shitty joke and then the shitty website isnt even formatted properly for a payoff.
The American version of the V2 rocket killing more people in production than it did in combat.

Slave laborers. I just needed to be a bit pedantic.

I wanted to leave a Wikipedia link and quote here but pages had no easily quotable stuff. I do not want to link to a .mil page but it's convenient.
German V-Weapons: Desperate Measures > National Museum of the United States Air Force™ > Display
The Nazis used forced labor to build V-weapons and an estimated 20,000 people died producing them in brutal work-camp conditions.
As if "forced labor" wasn't creepy enough - the following paragraph makes things even creepier. I wonder if that was intentional. Hey, they might have used ~~slaves~~ forced labor but there was significant technological advancement!
Both the V-1 and V-2 foreshadowed future weapons development. The V-1 Buzz Bomb's pilotless, self-guided aircraft features reappeared in later cruise missiles, and the V-2, as the first practical rocket-guided ballistic missile, pointed the way toward nuclear-armed ballistic missiles..

First you need the period of Elon Musk being publicly anti-grift until he realises it's a grift and he can get in on it. He's gonna go out and talk about the mic being corrupt and then, in a few days, when someone has explained it with enough bazinga terms, will he understand that yes it is corrupt and would you like some money Elon?
Then he's gotta fuck up the grift somehow. Tale as old as time.
Sadly, as much as I hope for really funny things to happen, this will be what he does.
with dual redundant star link satellite receivers built-in
This whole DOGE thing is the most
ive ever felt before and im eating it the fuck up
Can confirm: 5 sides
5 stories, 5 rings, 1 kentacohut.
How many do they really need? 
They should get it down to a quadrangle at least
Something stupid happens to the MIC or the MIC loses money or somebody in this admin gets shot
Good things do still happen
elon walks into the pentagon and says take me to the black budget wing and they walk him into a janitor's closet and he's never seen again

Woke disgrace "General" Milly gave our amazing rocket car friend Elon the "Khashoggi Special"...not good folks! They ruined the beautiful duffel bags! At least he'll still fit in the trunk of a wonderful new "CYBERTRUCK."
A real shame for our tremendous Country! Oh well bye bye Mr Musk! He didn't fly so good, does Vivek wanna try next?

MIC vs DOGE

we're X amount of days before an Elon Musk property gets mysteriously drone striked

If the pentagon tried to kill him Michael Hastings-style, nobody would be able to tell if Elon's Tesla just did that.

They're going to find Allen Dulles hooked up like Mr House and then get ventilated.
Am I supposed to care about the sanctity of the pentagon? Libs really slept through Genocide then awoke when Trump attempted to stick a wrench in the genocide machine (To be clear, Trump loves genocide and thinks his genius wrench is the best there has ever been and will improve the machine bigly)
He's going to remove one of the sides and make it The Square
He's gonna turn it into a pentagram
A decorated Pentagon official stands in front of the doors, blocked by a scrawny broccoli headed 20 year old.
Sorry, Mr. Musk is busy in here uhhh, can you like comeback another time?
The official walks away dejected, head low, kicking rocks as he goes. And so ended Americas global apartheid, as its maintainers fold under the "rule of law".
Either the military is completely inept or they want this to happen.
The imperial decline is palpable
Whatever they break, it's only so they can privatize it. So its more a case of they want it and are kind of inept, but this is going to make money for whoever they choose to reward.

It's gonna be renamed to X-agon, isn't it?
Truly cursed
hahaha lmfao


Oh fuck yes
