Twitter Death CultTo EVERY employee? Jesus Christ, man.
Just imagine Musk staying up to 3 AM reading a one page book report by some random admin assistant in the Twitter Facilities Management Division
There are like 25 twitter files about how Russian troll bots weren't a real thing but also we have to limit API usage because "opinion manipulators" aka libruls...
And just lmao that they announced this change to come in a week with no details and if someone, like a business, wanted to make any sort of planning, the only idea of the pricing they would deal with is from Elon responding to some random tweet.
Elno has to kill the random Virginia Wolfe quotes account and the remind-me bots and all the puppy/kitten rater bots because a bunch of people voted him off the island and that can't be a real thing, he's Elno Msuk the genius special boy who's gonna save the world! It must be those Evil Librul Bots who made him feel sad!
"Musk, Ben Shapiro... and uh.... I forgot the third one. Oops."

reminder that in 2018 musk was having a big public meltdown and decided that anything "nano" was bullshit nonsense and tried attacking a cancer researcher working on nanoparticle treatments who happened to criticize him

he already did that and eli lily got mad so he backpedaled i guess he's just gonna do it again
ok sure "hey who's the current least successful person in the social media space, famously fucking up their unprofitable website? musk, right? let's do what he's doing"
Lmao I wonder what the 3 remaining advertisers think about their advert spend being shared with literal nazis because it's in a highly engaged tweet about pro nazi hate speech
Extremely excited for tweetfarming to become a thing, this sort of activity has never caused the death of a platform before!
He literally got owned by a cat lmao.
Love to make huge financial decisions for my company with "I guess..." policies
Give me 12k a year or you can't tweet to Catturd2 and a bunch of nazis
Twitter Considers Charging Brands $1000 Per Month to Stay Verified
Twitter is likely to charge brands $1000 a month to keep their gold verification badge, plus $50 a month for each affiliated account, according to internal messages viewed by The Information. The pricing structure, which according to the messages is being finalized and could still change, would add another chapter to the Twitter Blue saga, which alienated advertisers after the initial
actually, come to think of it, i have a lot of respect for the jurors
they looked at the case that took weeks to present, the stakes, the plaintiffs, and the amount of work they were being asked to do to hand a bunch of rich investors even more money, and they said "fuck it, let's go bowling"
it's a civil case, it's not about justice, and spending your weekend arguing over how much money to take from a billionaire to hand to millionaires isn't really redistribution
Of course people want Musk to eat at least some amount of shit, so it's disappointing when he repeatedly manages to not deal with any repercussions from any of the idiotic scam-and-scam-adjacent services and promises he's come up with, regardless of how transparent they otherwise seem.
It's the primal need for something, anything to matter to this clown as an actual consequence, instead of what seems to keep happening
It's great that nothing he does works, and his veneer of sci-fi nerd messiah is flaking apart so obviously, and all this, but when things go so far as being taken to court for finance manipulation reasons and then they find that he's not trying to defraud or manipulate but is actually just an utter moron, that feels like we missed out on what should have been an easy win.
We do live in a supremely stupid world so we shouldn't be that surprised.
They recalled the ~woke DA~ that they blamed for all the crime and crime went up lol
movetodon got banned by twitter
losing my ass at the blackjack tables and sputteringly explaining to my MEAN spouse that if they'll just LISTEN, I'm actually trending to breakeven. I've got a system!
had to save twitter from bankruptcy (that I put it on the path to)
would not wish the pain of running multiple companies on anyone (no I will not step down and let anyone else run a single one of these companies)
Lol "Trending to breakeven" aka "even if i cherrypick a bunch of extremely favourable data points and ignore all surrounding data, the best picture I can fabricate is we'll stop losing money at some undefined point in the future, maybe"
Then again he probably didn't actually bother to do even that and is just lying so that he keeps his story straight to anyone still funneling money to him
Matt Walsh's filthy pedo face popping up in my feed like the hobo from Mulholland Drive
"Elon, I showed my bad posts to everyone and barely anyone liked them!"
"For some unknown reason nobody likes any of the weird freaks I keep shoving into everyone's timeline!"
I do have to give elon credit, making the tweet view metrics public is starting to cause a lot of petty people who are addicted to validation either feeling bad about it or pointing fingers at elon because these numbers can't possibly be right everyone loves my posts
Absolutely unstoppable juggernaut of humor and plagiarism, this Musk fellow
Everything he says he's done, he's done the opposite

All grifters, all liars, all the time

People don't ask me "where moon" but then again I haven't promised anyone we're living on Mars in 10 years 10 years ago
also probably safe to assume that a doge name or avatar means that the person is one of elon's paid lackies
Trump has probably a dozen excuses like Musk just being a loser or Musk not fully committed to proving the 2020 election was fake so he is just going to stay on Truth
Elon gonna enforce this broad acceptance by banning anyone who is mean to his nazi buddies or grifter pals like Eliza
Is Musk actually doing this because he started ripping out servers and is trying to get people to stop tweeting as much by limiting overall numbers? What a genius!!
I really wanna know the turnaround time from Elon dictating the terms and the code being deployed.
Also isn't that really going to fuck over companies that offer user support via Twitter? Of course they'll soon offer an option to bypass those limits for $11 a day or something.

An example of how stupid this is. To DM Xfinity Support, you need to follow each other since so many accounts have closed DMs. But Xfinity Support can't follow any new accounts until they unfollow 133,000 accounts. So they won't be able to interact with customers.

lol
guys the superbowl is this week. nobody is going home.
or perhaps people will be going home... they just won't be coming back
JUST ANOTHER DAY Vivian Ann Romero, Ernesto J Bautista & Rodney Alejandro
she's so fuckin dumb she doesn't know they're also pretty goddamn happy that dude bought them out for 44 billion

Since he overpaid so much he needs to pay off the loans he took out for his purchase but twitter is not profitable as a company so the only thing he knows to do is to monetize every possible aspect. The result is that the platform is a goner and it is going to ruin a lot of people's livelihoods
he vastly, vastly overestimates the amount of blood he can squeeze from the stone that is twitter and he'll end up killing it trying to get the last drop, like lmao why the HELL would you fuck with the ability to SOCIALIZE on a SOCIAL NETWORK, then have the audacity to charge for it???
they're gonna do all this bullshit tweaking and pissing off everyone by limiting follows or whatever then check the balance sheet at the end of the month and see only 0.01% of users forked over cash
I imagine he is getting blocked by a lot of people right now, driving down even accidental engagement.
