Elon Musk made his Saturday Night Live debut last night, opening the show with what could generously be described as a comedic monologue. Musk, the second-richest person on Earth and the self-proclaimed “first person with Asperger’s to host SNL,†addressed the controversy around his hosting gig up top, explaining, “I know I sometimes say or post strange things, but that’s just how my brain works. To anyone I’ve offended, I just want to say, I reinvented electric cars and I’m sending people to Mars in a rocket ship. Did you think I was also going to be a chill, normal dude?†Doesn’t explain his consistent peddling of COVID-19 misinformation, but okay (the Asperger’s claim, by the way, is a heinous act of Dan Aykroyd erasure). Other topics broached by Musk included his appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, O.J. Simpson, and his car of choice (“Priusâ€). He wrapped up the monologue by bringing out his mom, Maye, who looked (understandably) terrified to be there, and, of course, plugging dogecoin.
