Lol if Twitter collapses before Elon even manages to flee while throwing a sacrificial 'new ceo' at it.

In the span of saying "I know how to win" he's lost about six figgies in loan interest and server costs.

It's like John Coffey from the Green Mile except instead of cancer or bad vibes he's constantly spewing benjis out his mouth as they turn to dust and float into nothingness

Having your baby mama leave you for Chelsea Manning, losing $100 billion in Tesla's market value, then watching $44 billion evaporate in a month.

But who are we to understand the strange wisdom of such a titan of industry?

I’ve got a friend at Twitter who resigned, but they haven’t gotten around to revoking their slack access yet.

Some team called “core-services” literally has 5 people left in it

I think worse case, we hit the expire cert in 24 days.

Probably won't make it there at this rate though.

Really kind of hoping we make it to that because I think it would be the funniest thing if he sees it coming and yet can’t stop it because he fired the people who knew how to solve it. Also that he unbans trump the day before

I guess there is some karmic justice in the fact that when Twitter goes down Musk won't be able to post a snarky tweet about it.

There's no way he'll see it coming. He'll be completely blindsided, then blame Extreme Left Anarchists for Cancelling his site. And/Or sue a former engineer.

Machiavelli posted:

It ought to be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new. This coolness arises partly from fear of the opponents, who have the laws on their side, and partly from the incredulity of men, who do not readily believe in new things until they have had a long experience of them.

Three months of paid time off during the big holiday season and not having to work for Elon Musk is a hell of a deal.

Elon completely forgot people want to spend this time of year with their families.

Close man, but the word is "lose." You're "losing" a small fortune.

Taking an 8 dollar entry free for people to watch you burn a giant money pit isn't "making" money. It's net negative bro

Lmao dude, don't be actually dumber than Elon. This is a very old joke used in a broad variety of contexts. Phrasing it as lose undoes the format of the the joke.

In fact, taking severance RIGHT NOW increases your chances of getting anything before they're completely bankrupt in a few weeks.
