It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

How can one man be simultaneously so stupid and also so dangerously irresponsible?

Is there a website or account somewhere that tracks elon musk's current location? I would like to know elon musk's GPS coordinates at all times.

Here you go - the closest thing at least. Here for a direct link.

Edit: the info they publish is legit, though reading about it the author seems like a techbro imbecile; I quote:

The Twitter account, created in June 2020, had been targeted by Musk beginning in 2021. He offered to pay Sweeney $5,000; Sweeney countered requesting $50,000 or an internship in one of Musk's companies

In April 2022, Sweeney stopped tracking Mark Cuban's travel in exchange for his friendship and business advice.

how tight do you think security is at austin bergstrom international airport?

From a purely theoretical standpoint if I were a journalist seeking a surprise interview I think airports are a no go for theoretical journalists due to private gates and transition from plane to car privately. It's probably much better off working out what destination someone has after the airport and catching them in the transition from car to building at that destination, assuming the destination doesn't have a built-in underground parking garage. That or figuring out what hotel chain someone likes as everyone goes through the lobby at some point or another.

Personally I'm banking on Musk ending up dead in one of his rockets, due to something stupid he'll have insisted on despite the advice of actual engineers. It'd be far funnier.
