I’ve also heard about the children with 5 parents.

Not what they were doing, but who they are.

Elon Musk and Amber Heard. Okay, I don’t really know what she looks like off the top of my head, but brain bleach for those who do. I get it.

I presume you mean cases where a married couple decided the simplest way to have a baby, when the women’s eggs and the father’s sperms weren’t satisfactory and the woman was unable to carry a baby to birth, was to pay for an egg, a sperm, and a surrogate.

Or, for that matter, a same-sex couple, either male or female.

I sure don’t get it.

FYI Heard looks like what she is: a hawt ~30yo Hollywood movie star. Perfect hair, perfect teeth, perfect face, perfect body, etc.

Probably a “challenging” personality, but musk is that in spades, so they match.

Again, much as I enjoy dunking on Elmo (and believe me, I love dunking on boy apartheid and his fanbois), there were never any allegations of money changing hands, just threesomes being had.

ETA: What’s brain bleach worthy is having to discover Elmo’s sex life.

In the last 15 years, it’s been the conservatives who have turned into the freewheeling party libertines and free love. I can only assume conservatives have vacated this board because they’re too busy swinging, having threesomes, spending money to impregnate multiple women, hot wifing (wifeing), or engaging in same sex relationships on the downlow to spend time on message boards.

I recall one of Vivian Wilsons posts suggesting that Elon wants a group of candidates that he could transplant his consciousness into in some future scenario. It does fit with his whole barely human cartoon villain schtick. My Google fu is not up to the task of finding it seems.

and..

Was Dallas\_Jones actually being serious with that comment? I assumed there had to be some context I was missing because to intend that comment literally suggests a massive disconnect with reality.

Attacking Musk’s behaviors in the board room and at DOGE is like shooting fish in barrels. The opportunities are endless. I acknowledge your request for information and hope you find my links helpful.
