Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.

      But some drugs can affect your intelligence, and if he was intelligent enough to at least lay low and take credit for others’ work before, it appears he no longer has at least that baseline.

        It has absolutely nothing to do with drugs. Not even in the slightest. He acted this way before he bought Twitter. He acted this way when he wormed his way into Paypal. This is just his thing. The only difference is people give him attention now. Iron Man, Rick and Morty, and the general Internet praise made him too comfortable.

          I think the Rick and Morty joke flew over people’s heads tbh. He’s kinda portrayed as a useless dick, I mean his character just did what he does in real life. Let others solve the problem while he tries to take some or all credit.

        Constant praise by sycophants and people wanting to believe in a better future at the hand of high tech billionaires also does the trick. It works like a pump for inflatable egos.
