Talking about Terminating, a police force in the US has spent some $150,000 on getting a police cybertruck, and made a promo about it using music from Terminator. Presumably they thought the T-1000 was the good guy.

TBF, that was the theme from the original, so technically the cops were the good guys there. Still a cheesy and obnoxious use of taxpayer money though.

Richest man in the world tells people to go have babies, and not to worry about the costs: "It'll work out."


Of course, you'll be having your babies just as Musk and Trump plan to utterly destroy America's economy (so that they can remake it in their image alone). But hey, put that brat to work in a mine for some extra cash!

Its hard not to believe that this Musk/Trump alliance was a long con.

Trump and right wing MAGA/Alt Right figures got purged from twitter.

Circumstances happened that influenced and pushed Elon Musk to buy Twitter.

Elon Musk then reinstate's Trump and other MAGA/Right figures back on Twitter.

Now Elon Musk seemingly is now in Trump's inner circle.

This alliance was too powerful for the any political opposition to stop. Elon Musk buying twitter was a political tactic.

The richest 10 people in the world increased their wealth by 65 billion overnight after the election result. The biggest beneficiary of that was Musk.

Broken image.
To sum up: the Cybertruck has a flat front bumper with a slight lip that can catch snow, causing the need to not only clear the headlights before even leaving, but said lip also catches and collects snow while in motion and needing to be cleared while driving.

I mean, I shouldn't expect the Escapist to be an image hosting site, but I would hope it lasted longer than that.
It seems that you didn't upload an image to the escapist and just included an image from Discord as the URL of the image starts with;

An image actually uploaded to the escapist website looks like this;

Huh, thought I uploaded it. Oh well. As it was described. If I find it again, I'll upload it properly.

Is this the result of some kind of deliberate sabotage by the engineers/designers? Why are there so many stupid things wrong with it?
Whatever you want to say about Adamsomething, he probably hit the nail on the head. Musk came in with a basic ass drawing and demanded the engineers follow his ideas, and Musk is not an engineer, and the engineers couldn't tell him no.
