And stay, it’ll be great.

And yeah, no. I’m not directly buying* into any of this— buncha nonsense. :grandpa:

*Not that it matters. Like LEVIS, they’re going private.

The social media giant confirmed Monday the Tesla CEO and billionaire will acquire the company in a deal worth $44 billion. Once the deal is complete, which is expected by this year, Twitter will become a privately held company.

He’ll take it public again after he’s delved into the algorithms a tad bit.

People are afraid of what people might say, anonymously, online, for some reason.

Is that about it?

He’s a self-absorbed twit, flying into space while a pandemic rages below.

He’s the last guy I’d count on to solve things.

Not really the scathing rebuke it’s intended to be.

Open-sourced accounting at the UN is a good start.

Gavin Phipps on ICRT, who has an uncanny ability to mispronounce all proper nouns, even gets Elon Musk wrong.

He must be doing it on purpose. It’s his schtick.

That doesn’t sound like Elon, either. What a hack!

He’s actually a really good newsreader.

He pronounces Elon with a short e.

If he bought that with cash I’m really impressed.
Even for the richest guy in the world that’s a lot of money to put down in one go. Just the financial logistics of it all.
