Walter Isaacson's new biography of Elon Musk is such a fever dream of disconnected and bizarre anecdotes about the man that you almost find yourself skimming past the brief mention of him taking

While Elon’s then-partner Grimes was recording her part in the game as cyborg popstar Lizzy Wizzy, the erratic tech billionaire turned up with an antique firearm to “insist” on being included in the game. “The studio guys were like sweating,” Grimes is quoted as saying. Musk adds “I told them that I was armed but not dangerous”.

Apparently, the developers relented at the time, though it’s unclear if Musk did actually get the cameo in the end.

    Off-topic only, has nothing to do with the content related to CP2077 and the muskrat

    So, based on some comments here, it looks like I came across as trying to ban language, to forbid words, to restrict your free speech.

    As stated in my original post, this was and still is not my intention. I have not attacked personally the persones using “cunt”, nor have I said no one should say that.

    I just shared a reflexion, because that’s why I sign up on social media platforms.

    I am happy that some people felt safe enough in this community to explain why they think my views are incorrect, I actually learned some things thanks to you.

    I’m not trying to ban the “cunt” word from language - and if I was, it would be so laughable to think I could have that kind of influence.

    I just believe that the words we use have an effect on people. And I think it’s worth it to sometimes pause and wonder which words we are using and if we can use better ones.

    I’m not going to engage further on this topic in this channel, it’s probably not the most appropriate space.
