No one will want to work for Elon but other than that being the CEO of Twitter for the next year or so would be stupidly easy. Just undo everything Elon did and the company is 10x better than it is today. But you’d get fired before you would be allowed to embarrass Space Karen.

The job interviews for the Twitter CEO position would be pretty hilarious.

“What would you say are Elon Musk’s 3 biggest achievement?”
“Tell me about a time you had to be Hardcore.”

Haha, Geohot was one of the main figures in the iPhone jailbreak community when that first started. Pretty sure I chatted with him back then.

I don’t remember much about that movie except that I enjoyed it. The one thing that HAS stuck with me, though, and that my wife and I break out every so often is, “Fuck Facebook in the face.”

The stand-up in it is so good. It includes a ton of comedians playing themselves, and who can dislike Aubrey Plaza?

The intro sequence is amazing for including video footage of Adam Sandler and Judd Apatow in their earliest years playing phone pranks on unsuspecting sandwich shops.

“Because it was massively overvalued and everyone is now finding how much of a douchebag Elon Musk is.”

There, wrote your article in under 20 words.

He should just blame it on woke liberals, antifa, and trans activists.

He should blame it on woke liberals, anitfa, trans activists AND Mike Pence. If you throw Pence in there it will confound the NYT reporters and they’ll keep writing stories about the “mystery” of Musk’s political leanings.

Problem is Elon says twitter is crashing into a mountain with a negative $3 billion cash flow. Of course he doesn’t admit that he created half of that by loading his purchase with debt.

I miss the good old days of tech investing when a negative cash flow was just proof that you were INNOVATING!

I didn’t realize they called their child Lil X. I totally misread the previous posts and thought the “stalker” was following a car that actually carried Lil Nas X. :man_facepalming:

Man I don’t know how long he can or will float this thing to the tune of $250 million a month.

The Phoenix Suns just sold for 9% of what he paid for twitter and I’d much rather own the Suns.

Sadly, I think we have to come to terms with the fact that Elon is getting exactly what he wants out of the Twitter transaction. When you’re an emotionally underdeveloped immature narcissistic billionaire, a cadre of sycophants and constant attention are worth more measly millions of dollars. Sure, millions of people are laughing at his stupidity and incompetence, but it’s easy enough for someone like him to erect real or psychological barriers to block all that out. The richer you are the easier it is to create a hermetically sealed environment.

Man I don’t know. He’s burning close to $10 million per day. Tesla is cratering. Something has to give.
