"Linda Yaccarino celebrates her first public victory as X CEO by reviving an advertising council Elon Musk disbanded"

When you have no accomplishments in a new job, anything will look like a victory.

You know what? I think it won't be a victory, but I'm ready to be proved wrong. Calling this a victory *now*, however, is quite premature.

So far I've been proved right that Yaccarino has made no difference to the way Twitter is run. It was a dumpster fire before her, and it still is.

"Linda Yaccarino says Twitter will reinstate ‘client council’ for ad execs"

I know some are going to gloat and say "See? I told you!" For my part, I'm going to believe that this will make a difference when it does make a difference.

One tactic of tinpot dictators is to reinstate the institutions that they destroyed. However, those new institutions are empty shells. They do the bidding of the tinpot dictator.

Yaccarino: "It would be good optics to bring back the client council."

Muskrat: "Alright, but I can ignore their complaints and override all their decisions."

Yaccarino: "But... it will be a powerless body."

Muskrat: "Yes, that's the point."

You know what? Fuck it. I'm changing my name to ᴎ. A name change no one asked for and no one will like or understand.

Today, in the grand tradition of releasing software libraries with the suffix "-fy" at the end, I present to you the brand-new library:

enshittify

This library will take care of turning your entire community against you, thereby ensuring that your company crashes into the ground so bad that both #Musk and Reddit's CEO whose name I cannot remember will be envious of you.

This library will be available free of charge to people who give me $3 billion in the #DogeCoin equivalent, or buy this limited edition NTF of my foot, up someone's rear end.

#software #company #TwitterCEO #ElonMusk #ElonMuskrat #RedditCEO #CrashAndBurn #enshittify

Standard #CEO playbook. When the company goes well, it is because of the CEO. When the company craters, it is due to external forces.

(I know #Musk is not CEO anymore... but do you really think #Yaccarino is not a CINO (a CEO In Name Only)?)

Musk's own #bullshit couldn't possibly be to blame.

"Shit, I did not realize I was joining a sinking ship. Where's my golden parachute?"

"You're mixing metaphors idiot. A parachute is no use on a sinking ship."

"It is if the ship is...er ... sinking through the clouds... merf."

"Oh, sure, and you're a fairy godmother, right?"

"Maybe?"

"Where are your wings?"

"Hidden under my clothing."

"But if you have wings, why the parachute?"

"😭 When will I get my life back?"
