You know, the Roman emperor Commodus gave himself so many bonus names that he had 12 names all in all, and then changed the names of the months to those names. It was only changed back after he was assassinated. I feel like Musk with his "10 and counting" children with the weirdest names in existence might be going for a similar concept.
#elon musk#commodus#anyway happy 12th of augustus#(august was 'commodus')#(probably bc it was his birth month)#he also named all kinds of other shit after himself#suprisingly - he wasn't a leo! he was a virgo!#even though this is the most leo thing i've ever heard#techno mechanicus
