@Sustainable2050 He's just showing that he's increasingly isolated. He's bought into this idea of "apexity" where when you're at the top "they let you do what you want." And he's surrounded himself with idiot minions that are supposed to turn whatever brilliant idea he comes up with in the moment into reality.
It's not just him, though. His magical belief in "manifesting" has infected his whole support structure. They have achieved (according to them) transcendence where, finally, the little people don't matter any more.
They have achieved, in other words, total separation from reality.#NormanVincentPeale #PositiveMentalAttitude #CloudCuckooLand #Ozymandias #Idiocracy #Manifesting

Trump’s Iran War Has an Ozymandias Flavor
For well over 50 years, long before the popular 1979 Revolution that then enabled Ayatollah Khomeini’s Islamic Revolutionary…

One day Trump and his works will be as Ozymandias:
‘I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.’
— Percy Byshe Shelley, 1818

I thought this image was #AI
no it's a real bust (and really busted)
of Elon #Musk
sitting out in the desert, forlorn, beaten up, looking cringe
some real #Ozymandias shit
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"(ps: good article, he's vacating #WashingtonDC, but is busy building his own fiefdom called '#Starbase' in #Texas near #Brownsville: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/05/02/elon-musk-spacex-texas-starship-00317693 )

I'd heard much of this before and have thought for a while that at least some of these people are going to make a genuine bid for immortality.
https://www.tortoisemedia.com/2024/12/17/silicon-valleys-obsession-with-longevity
Anyway, in amongst the snake-oil nonsense, this sentence made me laugh out loud for its sheer ridiculousness, solipsism and lack of self-awareness.

like #Ozymandias, Mark #Zuckerberg may one day learn the hard way that all of his planning to elevate himself above the risks of the mortal world has been for naught. If the #apocalypse does come, hurling us all into nature… The security guards that you hired to protect you are going to think more about protecting themselves. The construction workers who built your compound will know where all the food is hidden.

Stonehenge under gales & a lowering sky today, sheep grazing on it. Prehistory is more important than ever at times when the roar & clamour of now seems to drown us. To stand with the megaliths and barrows, their cultural urgency in Neolithic Britain dissolved into monumental uncertainty, relic & grazing status, is to understand the absurd futility of lines on maps.

This is a memorial to Brigadier General Robert James Loyd-Lindsay, 1st Baron Wantage (1832-1901; VC, KCB, VD) that I stopped at on #TheRidgeway today.
It was utterly out of place - a strange oddity at the top of a field.
He looks to have been an interesting chap (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loyd-Lindsay,_1st_Baron_Wantage), but coming across this weathered totem really put me in mind of #Ozymandias:
"Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away." -

Monuments are overwhelming, huge, hard to break, violently jammed into the earth. They reinforce, reproduce, extend power. Monuments violently silence stories people tell about themselves, they suppress every story but their own. The stories told by monuments end in morals. They serve power, they work to control. Only the powerful can call monuments into being.
Altars are human scale creations, spontaneously precipitated out of a shared desire to tell a shared story. Created both together and individually, this work coalesces socially to express something of the community. Altars are temporary, shifting, laid down upon the earth gently. They quietly amplify the stories people tell about themselves, they celebrate every story woven into them. The stories told by altars don’t end in morals. They don’t end at all, they’re liberating. Anyone can call altars into being.
