SpaceX has been largely successful, despite Musk, because of Gwynne Shotwell. So Musk shoved X (which he led directly and was falling) into xAI (which was basically failing because it’s bad AI) and then shoved that into SpaceX.
That didn’t fail, but Tesla (which Musk leads directly) is now failing, too. So hey, let’s do what worked before.
Honestly, I’m surprised he hasn’t dumped The Boring Company on her yet.
How can you be in talks to merge with yourself?
(I’m referring to Elon not the company. I know they have their own president and board)
Tesla and/or SpaceX/Grox are probably looking like Wile e. Coyote four strides past the cliff edge. Keep slamming companies together to hide the loss to earnings and make the stock value go up. Got to keep the trillionaire status and make sure he can leave someone else holding the bag.
Ooooh this should be a fun implosion.
Let me put this in spacex talk…
Image a white drawf star….
Oh, because they’re worthless on their own? Noooo, that can’t be
The main product of SpaceX is corruption, they also have a side-business in rocketry.
Tesla is a publicity stunt company that occasionally sells cars. It seems natural to merge the two.
See this is exactly why it was such a bitch to get the legal rights to use that name in the branding. Teslas family did not want to be associated with this shit and knew goddamn well that people who would market that name would use be exactly like this.

How so? I’m genuinely curious, don’t know much about it, also not US-American
Also look up how spacex was awarded the HLS contract for Artemis. It’s pure corruption and fraud (facilitated by Kathy Lueders), and helps explain why they’ve failed to deliver what NASA bought.
Musk used his informal position in Trump’s admin to both cut funding to NASA and to direct contracts to SpaceX, and to squash federal investigations into his companies including SpaceX.
Trump authored policy that was favorable to SpaceX and he and his family heavily invested in SpaceX right before announcing the policy.

Thanks for the summary!
The outlook of Tesla isn’t great, so it is a perfect fit for SpaceX+xAI. All the brand new models are burning trash heaps, there are two cash cow models increasingly aging, even with the face lifts. It makes sense to consolidate everything into one big grift conglomerate.
Ketamine + Nazi != shareholder value
GROK! Solve this in a way that makes me lex Luther, not a parody of him. Make no mistakes.
Grok uses Claude, isn’t even using it’s own model. They gave up on that, because any competent staff they hire, leaves. Elon will go into history as the greatest incinerator of economic structure ever. The Epstein-class will forever regret letting him join. And Epstein knew…how crazy is that?
I had not heard of that. I think to stay correct, that needs some qualification. They have given up to compete with Claude on coding, so for agentic stuff the “Grok Bot” is using also Claude Opus 5.5. Grok still is an option too.
But yeah, it does sound like they are slowly giving up to compete at the very frontier.
As far as we know
I’m assuming the larger bottle next to him is the ketamine, what’s in the smaller one?
More ketamine
Let me guess, a merger helps Musk hit profitability targets that adds another few hundred billion to his total compensation, while increasing his control?
Wrong, $1 trillion pay package.
Sorry, I keep forgetting - the right process is, imagine the worst possible pay package that Musk could realistically get, and then add a zero.
And decreasing the usefulness of each input company
No, it’s literally so he can say he is the founder once and for all.
All will become X. Like a butthole.
A butthole full of shit.
From X to *. Like a puckered asshole. How long until it’s named AsterX?
He lives only because you allow it
Fuck. He’s doing the hand thing. That’s bad for everyone.
Not as bad as his other hand thing, but yeah, pretty bad.
He just wants to keep rolling the dice on his poor decisions until it pays off. I guess absorbing Tesla into the one “successful” IPO will hide the losses and leave the investors holding the bag.
What happens when he runs out if companies to merge and the whole house of cards comes down?
I can’t wait to see what Elon can do for Tesla with the extra budget from rolling it into SpaceX.
Imagine how many amazing new promises and forecasts can be made and broken.

He said that shit in January 2016 😄
