Still can't beleive people think this K addict is a self-made genius.

He's publicly outted himself so many times.

Go to the corner, you make Zuck look good.

I think he really thinks they're accomplishment. It's classic idiot boss handling. Give him a bunch of numbers going up and he's happy. Doesn't matter if they are meaningful.

I work at a pretty big corporation and our management teams are constantly sending company wide emails with stats and figures for motivational purposes. These posts have the same energy I suspect they're for current employees to keep up what morale they have.

Hmm, a very quick search shows that Twitter had 24.1 million super bowl tweets during the 2013 game...

And super bowl XLIX (I'm not going to try to find out what year that was) has 28.4 million tweets...

Okay, I'm fat and I can say from experience "fat" does not look like that. I'm really leaning towards the "Taking Human Growth Hormone and not working out" theory at this point.

Since he's decided that he's a political figure, his supporters are pre-rinsed to know that all criticism of Elon Musk is part of a secret agenda and you need to shut those naughty, gay thoughts out. Not believing all his woo and that he is on a messianic mission to save the earth is literally called a mind virus.

It's literally just an X from a standard font. There is nothing special about it. I wonder if he's even been able to trademark it

Random aside but I saw a series of Facebook short videos from some dude who appears to profit from making fake videos of him "catching" gang stalkers following him.

It's always big dudes standing and staring at him super obviously from around corners who walk or run away when approached.

Dude has identified crazy people as easy marks and is soliciting donations from them

I know X has been a long time thing with musk, but it still sort of feels like he was trying to be zucker as the stupid change of brand names.

Hell zucker might have him beat. Just checked and Facebook has apparently pissed away $46.5 Billion on the Metaverse crap as of October last year.

Impressive.

One could argue with Meta that they are at least trying to invest in a possible (profitable) future. Certainly not unheard of for a tech money to lose a lot of money in a new space, but establish dominance in that space at the same time, eventually leading to massive profits.

Musk ain't building poo poo with Twitter. He's running it straight into the ground.
