TWITTER – Who knew Elon Musk’s nightstand looked like this? The new owner of Twitter shared a photo of his nightstand and its content is quite surprising.
Two pistols that look fake or at least seem to be replicas, a bottle of water, a painting representing George Washington crossing Delaware, open cans of diet coke… Here’s what you fall asleep next to every night Elon Musk.

The photo got a lot of reaction from netizens and racked up more than 300,000 likes on Twitter. Several users have notably compared Elon Musk to the character of Milhouse’s father in The Simpsons, Kirk Van Houten. While the latter has just divorced, he offers Homer his new bed, in the shape of a car. Except that Bart and Lisa’s father replies that he sleeps in a big bed with his wife.

GuillaumeTC, known for his photomontages mixing two personalities, added a snapshot of Donald Trump on the businessman’s nightstand, as a reference to the return of the former President of the United States on Twitter.
Some did not fail to remind the richest man in the world to use coasters, to avoid stains on his bedside table.

@elonmusk On the other hand man, you should invest in coasters. Frankly the marks on the bedside table is not correct.

“There is no excuse for my lack of coasters” replied Elon Musk regarding the stains on his nightstand.

After the photo of his bedside table, Elon Musk also shared an image of Pepe the froge, a comic book character that has become a rallying symbol foralt-rightand in fact very often used by the American extreme right.
This character had notably been listed by the’Anti-Defamation League, an American organization that fights against anti-Semitism, as a symbol of hatred. Matt Furie, the designer, had thus decided to kill her symbolically in 2017 so that she would no longer be associated with extremists.
