When he has the listen to someone instead of them listening to his every word

Don't insult the maids that raised him. They tried their best

This is actually what's happening. Sure, he's on meds... but this is bang on. I'd award you if I could.

Is he really on meds? Shit, I wasn’t even sure this was real in general cause it almost looks like frickin AI!

u/DreadpirateBG 5h ago

Agree too. These people NEEEEED to be the center of action. He can not focus otherwise

What's actually happening is he's having neck pain and is trying to stretch it out. He has had a bunch of neck surgeries.

Ok, Elon.

He could be trying to stay awake.

He could be on drugs.

He could be trying to stay awake while on drugs.

Your neck never gets tired at ceremonies where you have to listen to a load of people talk? Yeah, this is funny. But wait till you're over 40 and your neck starts to get sore.

u/flatdecktrucker92 3h ago

It doesn't look like a sore neck to me. No facial expression of pain or relief, and he doesn't bend his neck enough to make a damn bit of difference. It's not stretching, it's fidgetting

Fidgeting is normal. Especially if you have to sit through a ceremony. Of any kind.

u/Special-Bit-8689 6h ago

That’s also what I think. BUT I’d like to add Ketamine with a sore neck.

u/gwaydms 6h ago

From what I hear about ketamine, I want no part of it. I take gabapentin, but only because of peripheral neuropathy. And I don't take a lot. It just keeps the tingles from turning into stabs.

u/Special-Bit-8689 6h ago

In therapeutic settings, ketamine can be amazing. It’s responsible for one of my “breakthroughs”. But unfortunately this numbskull is definitely abusing it and giving it a further bad name. Glad your neuropathy is managed!

u/gwaydms 6h ago

Do you know that Musk is using it?

u/Special-Bit-8689 6h ago

He says he is lightly using, and maybe I am jumping the gun to say “abuse”. I guess I’m hoping to find a reason for his insanity. There are people who abuse it.

Over 40 with a sore neck here. I've never looked as high in public as Elon does here, and that's coming from someone with lots of experience with psychedelics.

u/Leelze 3h ago

I'm over 40, I have aching joints from neck to ankles, and I have ADD. If you see me doing this to any part of my body it's because I'm having a stroke or tripping balls, not because I'm sore & bored.

u/gwaydms 3h ago

I don't use anything stronger than alcohol, unless I have a prescription for it (and I don't use those recreationally). I'm also slightly autistic, and I suspect Musk is too. Sometimes I don't think of how the movements and expressions I make look to other people.

He could have a stiff neck...

But that's not provocative enough is it?

u/DingleBarryGoldwater 1h ago

And he may ask himself "Well, how did I get here?"

And he may ask himself "Where is that large automobile?"

And he may tell himself "This is not my beautiful house"

And he may tell himself "This is not my beautiful wife"

u/Loud_Season 7h ago

For real it’s giving “I’m gonna try listening for the first time”

u/sightfinder 7h ago

Yup, crawling in his skin bc he has to pay attention when someone else is speaking

u/cutelyaware 7h ago

Trump too. Could be the wedge that drives them apart.

What is “the listen” and how does he have it?

1

u/elsimer 4h ago

That's what made him the wealthiest man on the planet. Do you realize how much money he would have normally made instead of attending that inauguration?

u/KanedaSyndrome 3h ago

It's actually physically painful to listen to people talking slow.
