His mind is on the verge of becoming complete mush due to drug abuse isn't it?

He looks and sounds like a druggie that will soon become homeless due to complete disassociation with reality, how can this even happen with personal doctors and clinics, and diets, and cosmetologists and whatever else?

Micheal Jackson had all those things and still OD’d on tranquilizers.

Drugs can be a helluva drug. Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.

Also, Musk is notoriously overconfident that he can learn anything better than experts. No doubt in my mind he's decided how much ketamine and other drugs he "needs," and has pliant doctors to agree.

Also billionaires don’t think that anyone else has the right to tell them “no”.

Also, billionaires have enough money to find a doctor who will tell them, "yes."

A wild Dr. Nick appeared. And got down voted.

And, billions of dollars to have lackeys find you drugs. And private fucking jets to fly to countries with drugs, and bring you back drugs. And a bestie you bought a Presidency for, to keep the DEA from seeing your plane.

Motive, means, and opportunity.

And most of all, a gargantuan ego that refuses to believe anything bad can happen to them.

He probably has his own lab. At least that what I would do if I had all that money.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 1 points 3 days ago

Not a bad idea. It could be distributed, with innocent components assembled in any of his many factories, and then final mix in the nursery.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 days ago

He's the wealthiest man in the world, what do you mean "how does this happen?"?

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

"verge of"

Bro he went off that ledge like 10 years ago

[–] peregrin5@lemm.ee 7 points 4 days ago

Verge? I think he's been well past that point for a while now.
