Cards Against Humanity sued SpaceX yesterday, alleging that Elon Musk's firm illegally took over a plot of land on the US/Mexico border that the party-game company bought in 2017 in an attempt to stymie then-President Trump's attempt to build a wall.

"As part of CAH's 2017 holiday campaign, while Donald Trump was President, CAH created a supporter-funded campaign to take a stand against the building of a Border Wall," said the lawsuit filed in Cameron County District Court in Texas. Cards Against Humanity says it received $15 donations from 150,000 people and used part of that money to buy "a plot of vacant land in Cameron County based upon CAH's promise to 'make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for Trump to build his wall.'"

This really revolts me. Every day this guy gets richer and richer.

“The local utility says it’s going to need a million gallons of water per day and 150 megawatts of electricity — enough to power 100,000 homes per year. “

I wasn’t sure what they meant with that water usage. Like does the water get recirculated and it’s a one time expense? Or is it a million gallons discharged into a river or sewer ever single day? Is it tainted? Or just evaporates from a cooling tower? Seems like a huge waste.

The Tesla CEO simply couldn’t resist using his own platform to say something sexist, controversial – and downright creepy, writes Ryan Coogan

I write this with sadness knowing Alex Risen, Predator Poachers, Is a piece of shit racist asshole with no real morals and is using the "Ima pedo hunter" as a reason to just spew stupid shit no one cares about. I genuinely did not know this when I first got into his channel, and I was holding out hope that "Maybe he's changed?"

Nope... Still being a complete manchild on Twitter. I don't really have issues with white people saying the n-word (it fr depends ima be real), but it's clear to me this guy has 0 understanding of black culture. For me- you have to actually understand black culture, black people and have a sense of respect for them to even fathom sucha word. But if you're just an asshole who spews garbage for the hell of it and uses baby diddlers as a means to gain popularity??? No. Go to jail. (please don't shoot me for this opinion, I'm black myself, idgaf if my friends say it, there's a time and place, and I don't really let the soft-A control how I feel at all. In the case of Alex Rosen, it's not offensive to me; it's just disrespectful as hell.)

Ima delete my account from this website... The fact the CEO uses people's emails to bitch and moan about dumb shit like this is- wow... Not sure what I was expecting but wow. Im just Disappointed

Seriously. Just stop it already.

I made this myself on GIMP with some wallpaper

Rumble us so goofy ISTG. I only use it because of Predator Poachers. But I tend to forget its an alt-right platform

Reuters documented at least 600 previously unreported workplace injuries at Musk’s rocket company: crushed limbs, amputations, electrocutions, head and eye wounds and one death. SpaceX employees say they’re paying the price for the billionaire’s push to colonize space at breakneck speed.

Through interviews and government records, Reuters documented at least 600 injuries of SpaceX workers since 2014. Many were serious or disabling. The records included reports of more than 100 workers suffering cuts or lacerations, 29 with broken bones or dislocations, 17 whose hands or fingers were “crushed,” and nine with head injuries, including one skull fracture, four concussions and one traumatic brain injury. The cases also included five burns, five electrocutions, eight accidents that led to amputations, 12 injuries involving multiple unspecified body parts, and seven workers with eye injuries.

SpaceX, founded by Musk more than two decades ago, takes the stance that workers are responsible for protecting themselves, according to more than a dozen current and former employees, including a former senior executive.

Musk himself at times appeared cavalier about safety on visits to SpaceX sites: Four employees said he sometimes played with a novelty flamethrower and discouraged workers from wearing safety yellow because he dislikes bright colors.

It's pretty cool how Lonnie can defy a court judgement using his multiple companies as leverage and not be arrested or face any repercussions whatsoever. /s
