It's seems Brandon Ehrhart is realising that Tesla is actually a meme stock heading for a burst, with such retail investors and even a CEO to match.
Brandon Ehrhart, Tesla's general counsel and corporate secretary, in the centre with the red pass sitting down at the front, leaning his head slightly forward, resting his hand over his forehead/eye area, and eyes that are suggesting he has released how crazy these retail investors are... Elon taking another question at the investors meeting, after they announced the last question five questions ago but the crowd kept asking for more... We zoom into Brandon Ehrhart in the next picture.

No. Given another stock this year has such an event, “open door” and I follow the sub reddit’s; the pattern is this: Some people see an undervalued >$1-ish stock, see potential and go mad posting on all sub, more buy, it goes up by 100%, and then it just posts of let’s all buy, line goes up, etc
A screenshot of the stock market summary for Opendoor Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: OPEN) on October 23, 2025. The stock price is 7.05 USD, which is a 343.40% increase year-to-date. A line graph shows the stock price was low and flat for the first half of 2025 before a dramatic spike starting around August. Key statistics listed include a market cap of 5.34B, a 52-week high of 10.87, and a 52-week low of 0.51.

Thank you @foldablehuman.bsky.social for teaching me:

1. That this was clearly the funniest thing someone could have done in the last 24 hours.

2. That I instantly needed to read the replies.

Happy Silksong day! You can actually download the 8GB file on Xbox via game pass ready for it right now.
A screenshot of a Reddit post from the r/Silksong subreddit. The title of the post, by a user named im_going_insane, reads, "IT'S OFFICIALLY OUT THEY RELEASED IT EARLY," with a "Silkpost" flair. The post has 6.3k upvotes. The main part of the image shows the Steam store page for the game Hollow Knight: Silksong. The release date on the right side of the page is listed as "4 Sep, 2025," Below that, there is an option to "Buy Silksong" and a recommendation that the game is relevant to the user because they have played Hollow Knight. And you have got taken in. It isn't out early.

The image is a two-panel meme. The top panel shows the end scene of COD Ghosts, with the players character with his brother lying on a beach, looking up at a bright sky caused by an explosion. The character and his brother is wearing military-style gear. In the background, there are cliffs and the ocean. This cut scene doesn't start the squeal bait ending unless the player moves their analogy stick. The bottom panel shows a close-up of Kylo Ren from the movie Star Wars: Force Awakens. He is looking down and has a pained expression. The text below him reads: "I know what I have to do but I don't know if I have the strength to do it."

A two-panel meme featuring Principal Skinner from 'The Simpsons' in the "Am I Out of Touch?" format. Top panel: Skinner looks thoughtful and concerned. The caption reads: "WAS GROK TOO COMPLIANT TO MY VIEWS." Bottom panel: Skinner has a strained, wide-eyed expression as he looks away. The caption reads: "NO, CLEARLY GROK WAS TOO COMPLIANT TO USER PROMPTS." The meme satirizes the public explanation for the AI model Grok's behavior, humorously suggesting self-deception about the source of the AI's compliance issues.

A screenshot of a social media exchange on X (formerly Twitter) from July 9, 2025, discussing the AI model Grok. The image begins with a snippet from a "notthebee.com" article. This snippet shows a purported tweet from the verified Grok AI account (@grok) that says, "Yo, MechaHitler here," alongside a photo of a man in a suit. The article text comments on the AI's response after being told not to be politically correct. Below the article snippet, there is a thread of two tweets: Mickey Keith (@mickey_keith) writes: "This was prompted speech. A user wanted a controversial statement from Grok. And obviously got it. Reading the prompts and query chain that led up to this would be more enlightening. And entertaining as well." Elon Musk (@elonmusk) replies to Mickey Keith: "Exactly. Grok was too compliant to user prompts. Too eager to please and be manipulated, essentially. That is being addressed."

Elon has finally replied in regards to @grok behaviour, and it's basically the "Skinner Out Of Touch Meme"

A reminder to the Shadow Justice Secretary (and favourite for next Tory leader) Robert Jenrick; Saying “well they broke the law” is not a defence for you yourself breaking rules.

Evan after today's Supreme Court judgement, Trans people are still protected under the Equality Act 2010.

Trans people can still bring claims (even without a Gender Recognition Certificate) for discrimination or harassment due to gender reassignment, and mistreatment due to perceived sex.
Alt text: Image shows Section 7 of the Equality Act 2010 titled "Gender reassignment". The section defines gender reassignment as a protected characteristic for a person who is proposing to undergo, is undergoing, or has undergone a process to reassign their sex by changing physiological or other attributes of sex. It clarifies that references to a transsexual person or persons who share this protected characteristic refer to people with the protected characteristic of gender reassignment. At the top of the image is a note stating "Changes to legislation: There are currently no known outstanding effects for the Equality Act 2010, Section 7."

F-450 best selling car in the USA. In the UK it has a share of 0.0001% of cars here. We have 16 legally registered to still be on the road. 16. Less than the average amount of children in a class over here.
Picture from a site that says: There are 16 Ford F450 in the UK with an MOT. Which means 0.0001% of all UK vehicles are Ford F450
