[–] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago (2 children) I wonder if Howard Hughes was met with boos when he went out in public, and is that why he ended up becoming a recuse? Is Musk a germophobe yet? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] misterundercoat@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago "Hop in the plane, Smithers." "But sir-" "I said hop in." permalink fedilink source parent [–] threadloose@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago Howard Hughes suffered from really profound OCD and chronic pain in a time before effective medications for either of those. Arguably, effective treatments still don't exist. He became a recluse because he wasn't well enough to appear in public. I understand why the comparison might spring to mind, but I'm pretty sure Elon Musk is just an entitled asshole and not disabled. permalink fedilink source parent
