whatever ass-backwards state Musk chooses

Pretty sure he's headed to Texas.

I think you mean teXas 😂

At one point they were only keeping the desperate H-1B visa workers. I don’t know if that’s still the case, or how many of those workers are Asian or South Asian, but they might not want to move to whatever anti-woke place Musk wants to put X next.

As a native Texan, this shit just keeps piling up and I cannot be more stoked. They're so close to flipping our state.

Texas is 50th in the US for quality of life. How they managed to be worse than the other Gulf states is baffling. Abbott and Paxton have managed to turn Texas into a raging dumpster fire. If Texas actually left the US, it probably wouldn't even be able to get a membership in BRICS.

Jeez, Texas losing to Mississippi is embarrassing considering that by any measure it’s a failed state. The Jackson water crisis alone should have them scrambling on par with Michigan post Flint.

To use an analogy, Mississippi will kick a puppy if it crosses its path Texas is outright looking for a puppy to kick.

They’re actually just moving people to their existing San Jose and Palo Alto offices, not even leaving California!

I can't wait until it goes blue this November and 49% of the state collectively whines about it for 4+ years.
