I have a Blue sky account to read whatever they call tweets as well, but with the added bonus of having a sincere belief that their failure is inevitable so long as they require an account to read tweets.

The point of posting that Skyview link was that you can read it without an account. Someone else immediately screenshotted it and ruined the effect.

Per capita Vatican City has one of the highest crime rates in Europe (mostly just because less than 1,000 people are actually residents, so a single theft sends that number sky high).

They don't focus on doctrine, though. I believe they direct their efforts towards Venetian naval supremacy & thwarting the wily Turk.

Someone please correct my dumbass gleaned from skimming articles and posts knowledge, didn't Elon buy Twitter with loans with guarantees and if it doesn't turn a profit/underperforms the banks can yank it from him since they technically hold that majority stake? I'm sure at least part of that is wrong but I keep getting confused how this has been allowed to go on so long

LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AS IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!
Twitter's buyout was a partial LBO, to the tune of 12-13 billion dollars. Elon coughed up about 25 billion in cash. There were other investors (most notably the Saudis, Qataris, and Larry Ellison).

He's not in danger of losing control of Twitter. Just of losing more money.

This is likely true, but then it would mean those banks would only get a fraction back of what they loaned and would have to declare it as a loss. Most banks do not want to declare they lost hundreds of millions of dollars, and don't have to do this until they call the loans in.

A request:

I'm trying to find a tweet that was (VERY loosely from memory) along the lines of "this is any Croatian chip shop", accompanied by a video act-out of two women dressed up as male Very European DJs chatting and trying to look cool behind the decks while On the Floor plays.
The chip shop bit might not even be form the original tweet, it might just have been a reply or quote tweet. I'm trying to find that video because it's hilarious and a very accurate parody of DJ body language.

Anyway, I might have got every bit of information wrong above but it's worth a shot :)
