Musk – a Tell.
Gonna be mucho drinkin' 'n typin' tonight. Also, earn points for posting the terms "Space" and "X", or "Open" and "AI", or "Zip" and "2", or "Solar" and "City", or "Neural" and "Link". May your Company never be Boring, and don't forget to Pay yer Pal.
Before the final papers were even signed, Musk shitcanned the entire top tier of executives. He has announced he's going to lay off 75% of Twitter's entire workforce. I eagerly await Elon's announcement that Twitter will be self-driving within 6 months.
Depressingly accurate. It’s hard to imagine why even a weirdo like Musk would pay at least 3X what the platform is worth unless the plan was to “curate” the discourse to suppress dissent when the GOP launches their next coup in 2024.
I’ve heard some people voice the opinion that Musk will get bored and sell in a year, but that strikes me as similar to the falsely optimistic thinking of people who, after the 2016 election, theorized Trump might govern as a moderate.
Saw this hopeful message on Twitter: „i was on tumblr when yahoo had to sell it for $3 million after buying it for $1.1 billion. we were all a little bit responsible for losing yahoo a billion dollars. and with that type of collective effort, i believe we here on twitter can lose elon musk even more“

Like the guy he named his car company after* Musk had two really brilliant ideas (reusable rockets, repositioning electric cars in the luxury market instead of the econo-commuter market) and an unending stream of really bad ideas.
*Nikola Tesla invented the polyphase AC system, upon which our whole electric transmission system is based, he then spent the rest of his life on crackpot ideas, including long-range transmission of electric power through radio waves, like he'd never heard of the inverse-square law, duh.

Is that " Listen" thing new? It's probably been there for months and my geriatric stoner ass just now noticed. Anybody tried it? Do Roy's sonorous tones compare favorably to a modern day Orson Welles or is he this generation's John Gilbert?
Made the mistake of clicking on the "Twitter Brigade" link. The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change. Fucking yeesh. Isn't their "brigading" just more whining about "thuggery mobs of wokeness" of whatever they're calling it?
“Similarly, accounts that come off as racist against African-Americans will be given Black avatars, a method we’ve already been testing with such major accounts as @RealCandaceO.”
I had no idea this even happened (on the bleeding edge of cultural advancement, that's me). It might have been the reason one of the first "Sponsored" tweets on my feed was some chucklefuck claiming that even though real scientists have determined COVID is a natural virus, HE has the PROOF it was created in a lab! And a scientific paper, I'm guessing not peer reviewed but you know those so-called "biologists" and their Big Pharma masters!
I'm not sure I dig the new filters. All of my tweets keep getting replaced with KNEEL BEFORE MUSK.
"Listen, if it all goes south, we’re not the ones who’ll get hurt."
Surely you meant "Listen, if it all goes TheSouthWillComeAgainLikeMe, we’re not the ones who’ll get hurt."

Oh, and don't forget to mention Nicola...

-paid options for people who prefer a more curated social media experience."
That my friends his parody so good it could successfully be substituted for the real thing.
Bravo!
"charming self-abnegation"
That's just poetry there.
The return of that asshole Trump to Twitter has the potential for being the single biggest shitshow in media history.
Ouch! Death to the bird site!
Cousin Elon sez: “Just emptying the Twitter, Clark.”

Will I still be able to criticize the PRC?
Will I still be able to support Ukraine?
Will there be full Level 5 Twitter autopilot by 2023?
Will I still be able to mock @elonmusk, his fanbois and bots?
Will I still be able to us the 💩 or will there be a charge or will it be limited to use by High Lord Musk and those he of which he approves?
More importantly, since the protectors of victims of CancelCulture are failing to defend Yeezy, will Twitter now fill that gap?

I'm afraid to try it.
My plan is to never go back to Twitter, and not having an account gets easier every day.

Bwah haha!
