I'm glad the leadership of Twitter is being treated on the same level of a GameFAQs contest.

The last time I saw a massive Twitter poll it was to determine whether Sans from Undertale or the con artist from Mob Psycho 100 was sexier, and then as soon as the poll closed the Queen of England died.

What I'm trying to say is the fandom that wants to gently caress skeletons could and should elect a more competent CEO

So at what point does Musk start streaming lovely video games with his sons for validation?

He has to get in a boxing match with like Neil Breen or maybe just Uwe Boll again first.

I would pay more money than I would admit here to see a Breen/Musk fight with 4oz gloves. Even old-rear end Boll would wipe the floor with Musk.

I wonder what made me think of that.

The funniest possible outcome would be for Musk to go “you said you wanted me out, so meet your new Twitter CEO, Donald Trump muhahahaha”

And Trump just goes “no thanks”

i think elon starting the path to stepping down is less about whatever he got up to with the saudis today and more about trying to salvage tesla, which is where the real money is.

i doubt tesla will ever really recover, but it's clear that it will crater completely if musk keeps embarrassing himself every hour of every day as he nosedives twitter and builds himself into a pariah. twitter is still doomed, there's no going back, but if he can install someone else and shift some of the blame when it files for bankruptcy next year, maybe tesla will stabilize at half or a third of what it used to be worth instead of 1/10th.
