Its all part of the plan. EM does one outrageous thing each day to constantly stay in the news cycle. The ego must be fed.

Oscar Wilde described this mentality in The Picture of Dorian Gray

“There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/SlKao_Pox5A

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Is it the ego feeding or keeping Twitter ("X") front of mind? Kind of like 2010 lady gaga constantly one upping herself to stay in the news (meat dress anyone?)
