Entire teams quitting is how you know you fucked up
Yeah like they just trapped the sabotager in the building.

You and I have no idea how much money that is, and how much it would take to actually reduce him to the level of merely someone with nine hundred million dollars
But doing a "fun" little thought experiment: based on the net worth I can get for him by googling (a fake number I am sure but purely for the sake of argument) he could lose one million dollars every single day, and at that rate it would take 544 years for him to lose all his money. And this assumes he is not still using his money to make more money even through the most conservative investments possible, which would likely still outpace this loss, or at least forestall it by another century or so
If Twitter died tomorrow and he wrote the whole thing off, he would lose (based on that fake google number) about one quarter of his wealth
That's still three quarters left! Plenty to fuck around and find out with
Maybe he can buy Yahoo next

“Hey, where’s this Musk?!”
“I am Elon Musk, sir, and I am prepared to make a full report. These users are consummate trolls, they use their clout to cause social strife; people think they’re not woke enough, and they listen to these bozos who conveniently deliver hot takes with fake electronic bots!”
“Everything was fine with our system until our infrastructure was shut off by Can’t-post over here.”
“They impersonate celebrities and brands!”
“Is this true?”
“Yes, it’s true. This man can not post.”
Found the top holiday gift for Twitter folks
But most of that isn't hard assets, though, right? I thought it was mostly Tesla stock. Ford is crowing about how EVs cost 40% less labor to make, they're going to eat all that right up.
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM
The sabotage is coming from inside the house!
*shits pants*
*people point and laugh*
haha, all attention is good!
I am fucking sad that we will likely be unable to tweet through his death
"i truly believe that i will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity when i get every single post on hthis fucking website deleted by 2022"
The real question is “Will Twitter cease to be one of the big sites of the internet?” And right now I am thinking, yeah, it probably goes the way of MySpace and Digg and Yahoo where they still exist but they are not the global internet touchstone they once were (but may still have some specific regions where they have a footprint).
THREE WEEKS!
Twitter is Byzantium if Phocas ruled for 50 years.
If he gets a six figure contractor bung out of it I wouldn't begrudge him.
(hard to tell, there are so many these days, all with those lovely blue checks.)
oh zoom got it already, thanks cmdr.
