## Energy Vampire

Elon Musk fired up his X-formerly-Twitter fingers on this week suggest, with a madman's glee, that he's a time-traveling vampire. And a [gamer](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860707062499713225>), he added.

"Full disclosure, I'm actually a 3,000-year-old vampire," he [first posted](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1232563408937115655>) back in 2020. "It's such a trial assuming all these false identities over the centuries!"

Musk revisited the claim — surely a joke, but an embarrassingly self-aggrandizing one — this week, [declaring](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860766441122996246>) that his X profile had been verified since 3,000 BC because he's a "time-traveling vampire alien!"

"Even though I'm 5000 years old, I think I look much younger," Musk continued, seemingly increasing his age by a full 2,000 years since 2020.

He kept indulging the fantasy until a nocturnal 3:00 AM, [posting that](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860593060176101444>) being a time-traveling vampire alien — vampalien? — "would explain a lot of things" about him.

## Life Force

By the next afternoon, Musk was instead [obsessively](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860781954121318728>) [responding](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860795211850682842>) [to a now-deleted](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860813976986431734>) video showing a [recent protest](<https://www.instagram.com/femen_france/p/DCwu-3Limlx/>) by the frequently topless radical feminist group Femen. In reaction to a crass meme saying "I found this difficult to masturbate to... but not impossible," Musk replied with his signature [laughing-crying emoji](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860867632637059395>).

Musk, who has an abysmal track record with [respecting women](<https://futurism.com/the-byte/elon-musk-bullying-federal-worker>) — or often [other people](<https://futurism.com/the-byte/elon-musk-supports-matt-gaetz>) in general — often takes refuge in these kinds of daydreams that frame him as untouchably superhuman.

Musk loves when people called him the "[real-life Tony Stark](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860708727416087016>)," for example. He's also posted AI-generated glamor shots of himself as a [technocratic Roman general](<https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1860741566673064063>), and he demurely accepted his new best friend Donald Trump [extolling him](<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lak5ZqeqMa8>) for being a "super genius."

In that sense, being a time-traveling shapeshifter vampire *would* explain some things about Musk. For instance, it might elucidate why a guy who does things like name a government department after a [dubious memecoin](<https://futurism.com/trump-elon-musk-doge-department>) is a megalomaniac instead of ashamed.
