I believe Musk is naive, juvenile and irresponsible, but I don't see strong evidence for him being a drug addict. He is coherent and measured in the interviews I've watched on Rogan and Fridman.

You say, "I don’t think it’s normal for ketamine to be used chronically." WebMD has a good explainer (https://www.webmd.com/depression/features/what-does-ketamine-do-your-brain) and says:

"For treatment-resistant depression, patients usually get the esketamine [the active component, ketamine is a mixture of two molecules] nasal spray twice a week for one to four weeks. Then they take it once a week for weeks five to nine, and then once every week or two after that."

This is consistent with how Musk has described taking it (https://www.medpagetoday.com/popmedicine/cultureclinic/109269): "Musk said he uses 'a small amount once every other week'"

Keep up the great work, Rob!

We the Living in an Idoocracy, NOT the fing fourth Reich Robert…I fing hate Trump and would happily say to almost every single one of his ghastly appointees, especially R.F.K.J., K$sh Patel, Tulsi Blowhard, J.D.Vance that the world would be a better place if each and every single one of you were thrown out of a …then again, forgive me Jesus for speaking truth to power...i agree with you Robert Trumps clown circus has NO RESPECT for the U.S. Constitution. But, then again, I cannot help but wonder where where you and your fellows at The Bulwark the last four years!? Just as I don’t know or care where DI.E., I mean DEI hire Harris is now, just as that career criminal Biden is in an old folks home, where the POSPOTUS belongs. In the meantime Robert, formerly anti statist turned statist that the Trump Devolution and MSNBLSD had turned you into…focus on how you can influence the loyal opposition, such that it is, because in the performative surreal world infotainment political world we inhabit…THINK A SECOND TIME how to get through to The Bulwark fans without calling bush is hitler, I mean Trump, but how to speak truth to abuse of power without demonizing your political foe. Musk ain’t Krupp, or Spear, and Heat Miser is a despicable crony capitalist pig, anti truth sociopath…but he ain’t Hitler and his fanatics are not nazis…just knuckle dragging neighbors. To wit, grow a sack and say it to their ugly faces as i do not hesitate to let all my former friends know they worship a.... That is all. Gotta run on. Thanks for taking my rant, for now, R.T. Peace through superior mental firepower

What is going on in the United States is truly like something out of Stsr Wars, the way our constitutional republic is being dismantled, with Donald Trump as Emperor Palpatine and Elon Musk as Darth Vader.
