@Andrewhinton @caseynewton @zoeschiffer @Gargron Great article! I worked for a narcissist once. It was one of the most miserable work experiences of my life. Musk is no different from that guy. I will say that I am truly amused to watch the Twitter apocalypse from the safety of Mastodon. But what I want to know is, how many lawsuits for wrongful termination (California is NOT a "right to work" state) are brewing? I hope they all have the sharkiest of lawyers.
