The personal and professional Musk de-evolution into an immature, emotionally spastic, grievance-based, self-destructive toddler-man is bewildering. I wouldn't be shocked that within five years he winds up living in a luxury survivalist cave in Iceland.

So true, I was there many years ago in Feb. and it was cold and bleak and dark.

The aspect that did actually surprise me, in listening to the recent recordings of him talking to Twitter staff, was his complete inability to handle even the most reasonable, politely delivered disagreement.

I mean this wasn't even "Sir all due respect but you're being dumb" this was "No sir, gravity works, up is up, down is down" and he's throwing the dude out of the conversation for it.

That's... not a good sign for his future, given that he is in something of a fraught situation. Like sure he'll probably never go broke, but that's not the mind you need guiding the ship past the proverbial icebergs.

Seriously. Or early on-set dementia.
