Musk blows up online as ‘ketamine’ dinner clip resurfaces

www.thedailybeast.com Musk Blows Up Online as ‘Ketamine’ Dinner Clip Resurfaces

The billionaire issued his most frustrated denial yet amid rumors of rampant drug use.

Elon Musk issued a curt rebuke of ketamine abuse allegations after a viral clip of his erratic behavior at a dinner recirculated online.

The clip—taken in March during a visit to Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club in New Jersey—shows Musk balancing spoons at a dinner table while one of his baby mamas, Shivon Zilis, watches in silent concern.

At the time, X user and “retired army medic” Molly Ploofkins tweeted the clip with the caption, “Musk playing with his silverware while tripping on ketamine at Bedminster.”

Or typical Asperger's behavior. The amount of times I started talking about the thrust-to-weight ratio of jet engines vs rocket engines on a date ... You'd think one of the world's richest men, and technophile, would find some other substance to trip with?
- Ketamine is top tier my dude.
  
  Price-wise he could get anything he wants. If ketamine has all these side effects, why pick this?
  
  Most (all?) of the good drugs have side effects. Ketamine actually doesn’t have that many side effects unless you’re overusing and/or using it for a long time.
  
  I have such a drug as well and far fewer people would gossip about it: alcohol. Many different flavors too.
  
  Like others have said every drug has side effects. Nature of the best. Ketamine is extremely safe though and almost impossible to OD on.
  
  Disassociation, probably.
- I fucking HATE Musk, and my feeling is that its substances. I did also wonder if its autistic behaviour, and I'm disappointed you've got so many downvotes
  
  I'm no fan either.
  
  I haven't watched the video, but I've definitely played with spoons, forks, water cups, knives, and made towers out of the grape jelly packets from childhood through to adulthood if it strikes my fancy. I know this isn't exactly "normal" but it's kind of fun. It's probably also fun if you're tripping on ketanine, IDK.
- Do you ever sit around and try to visualize energy as 4th dimensional geometry?
  This is why I don't need drugs.
  
  Settle down, Eric Weinstein.
  
  If your mind is already primed for that kind of thinking, I'd say you should definitely do psychedelic drugs. You'd have a lot of fun with mushroom visuals, no side effects just be smart.
  
  NGL, D.A.R.E. did a number on me. I don't think I would try shrooms.
  I had a THC gummy once, and I don't recall it doing anything to me. I was also loaded up on anti-histamines at the time, and my friend said that may have stopped any high or euphoria from it.
  Haven't tried since.
  
  As someone who has done plenty of drugs, Benadryl (anti-histamine) absolutely fucks me up. Knocks me right out.
  
  Same, but I was on Claritn at the time. House we were at had cats and dogs, and I'm allergic to basically anything with fur.
