I refuse to click this link purely for the AI-generated macho-man thumbnail alone. The internet is turning into a series of weird stylised God-figure portraits, and I am not enjoying it.

As for Twitter, I suspect that the ham-fisted emergency rate-limiting implementation probably didn't remember to allow SEO spiders. This would be an expected consequence of preventing the platforms you rely on for traffic from providing their users reasons to give you traffic.

The part that annoys me about all of this is that Musk will experience no consequences from stomping all over Twitter like a selfish mean child with a sandcastle. I feel badly for the people who worked there and sacrificed their time to work there.
