We'll see if this sticks, or if it's just for the TrumpMusk interview.
Fair point. It would make sense for him to use it.
He already posted several times, which is promising.
Funny thread where Elon told a censorious metrosexual EU toady to, and I quote, "Take a big step back and literally, fuck your own face".
Epic. Well... it would be much more epic if he hadn't hired a WEF minion as X's CEO. I imagine she's going to be chain smoking with her finger hovering over the dump button later today.
That is still Tom Cruise's best role:

I REALLY hope he's fully back, the memes will be so much better thanks to it being less restricted under Musk
The return of the king.

Xcancel is the most reliable one in my experience.
I prefer he stay the fuck off to be honest. He got really addicted to it last time.
I hope he gets addicted again.
I don't see how it could have ever been a net negative for him. He needs to be on there, that's part of how he ever got his appeal in 2016.
It's just like Musk telling the EU to fuck their own face, publicly right here in the open. The brash comment gets attention and endears you to those people just wishing someone would come out and say what they are thinking.
I heard that one before Trump. it's kind of obvious why if you think about it. Soda itself has fallen out of favor with pretty much everyone who thinks about their health. People who drink soda are fat, diet or no. But I bet the diet soda drinkers are less fat. Cuz that also just makes sense.
You would lose that bet. Sucralose is poison and impairs the metabolism. Sugar is much better for you.
Placebos are effective until they aren't. Someone drinking Diet Coke thinks they have made a huge change to their diet, and will therefore undergo far less changes elsewhere while also drinking something that is only marginally less fattening in full healthy diets (something fat people rarely have to begin with).
I've seen chubby people drink diet soda, and less obese ones. People who kinda cared but not really that much. But anyone who is "thin" isn't going to be drinking a soda at all and staying thin. Short of the super metabolism guys, and they could drink soda by the gallon and be thin.
It's categorically wrong to claim that diet soda is "marginally" less fattening compared to full sugar soda.
We're talking about zero calories in diet vs at least 150 calories per serving for regular cola in liquid form with zero nutritional value.
But as your overall point covers, weight loss & diet soda isn't as simple as "less calories in product = healthier". There's obviously deleterious effects occurring with diet soda beyond the simple calorie reduction, either through yearning to replace the faked calories through hormone signaling to increase appetite or by some other more complex metabolic derangement (gut flora?) that causes the "zero calorie" swapping strategy to not work.
I went with marginal because I didn't feel like going educate myself on the gritty details I've forgotten for someone saying something that patently retarded.
Even if it was physically effective to some extent, which as you say isn't guaranteed, the psychological aspect means it will always fail. Because the type of person to drink diet soda isn't fat on just soda, but will absolutely be the type to think swapping to diet is "enough." In fact, it will often trick them into thinking they have "done something" in their brain and thereby deserve a "little treat" for it.
Those mindsets are why nearly all diets fail in people, the brain is fiercely self protective to the body's detriment and will absolutely maintain its own homeostasis tricks subconsciously if you don't hold it to account.
His stuff is funny as fuck to read.
To quote Elon Musk: "Go. Fuck. Yourself."
I just realized that election day is November 5th this year.
GET THE MEME ENGINES READY BOYS!
Trump quarantining himself on truth social is the dumbest thing he’s ever done. Twitter was his entire 2016 campaign for fucks sake
