[Applied Muskrat Logic] I’m up 0.387% today; therefore, I’m a business genius. [/Applied Muskrat Logic]
He’s also arguing with one of Tesla’s largest shareholders for daring to have some common sense.
I think the reasonable thing for Elon to do right now, is to take out some network ad time, and take a giant dump on live TV.
That would be in keeping with his business decisions of late.
Another story now: California police say member of Elon Musk's security team is a suspect following stalker claim
Allegedly someone pulled over to make a phone call, someone on Musk’s security team blocked him, accusing him of following them, and then hit the guy with his car. No mention of the original guy being a stalker.
If Elmo is looking for someone dumber than he is, he might be waiting for awhile.
Except that isn’t what the original source said. “Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, Vox populi, vox Dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit. (And those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness.)”
He is right; Anyone wanting to take on the CEO job of twitter after Elmo has trashed it, and will continue to trash it, is an idiot.
I would take it if the pay were right. I would be more than happy to finish destroying Twitter if I were being paid.
It does sound like a pretty easy gig. Pretty straightforward to destroy something. You could just do whatever popped into your head at the moment, and damn the consequences!
CEO BeepKillBeep: “Underling! Bring me a magnum of champagne and three hookers! I’m going to have a conference call with investors and I want to be relaxed!”
…he isn’t silent at the moment LOL. The media is missing the mark, as they tend to do. He’s currently publicly arguing with Tesla investors, demanding explanations from Stanford for why (according to a NY Post headline) they’ve released a guide against “harmful language” including the word “American”, asking why the mainstream media isn’t investigating a Kim Dotcom conspiracy theory, asked Adam Schiff if he “approved hidden state censorship in direct violation of the Constitution of the United States”, claimed the US “has been harmed” by having Elizabeth Warren as a senator, and complained why the “millions of illegals” that enter the US every year is “never in the news.”
Also, he seems to think his Twitter polls can determine whether Congress passes the NDAA.
And only people who have paid him cash get to vote.
He’s damaged. His cracker has slipped off his plate.
So Wolf of Wall Street basically? 
I’d probably work on my music while pretending to work. Musk and I are very similar for all after “while”.
Honestly, I’d probably be a pretty good CEO because I would just let things run. One of the things I learnt as an army officer is sometimes the worst thing you can do is try to tinker. Let the troops do their job.
I’d take the job, and prove to be a better CEO than Elon, in the same way I could be a better defendant than Trump or SBF by one simple measure: I would just -shut the fuck up-.
But while my ego is overinflated (thank God for my wife), it isn’t so big it needs it’s own private jet, giving me a critical advantage.
When the price is going up, everybody’s a business genius. When it’s going down, it’s because of OPEC or the dirty nasty Fed.
If anything is going to lead to an actual technical collapse of Twitter, I would think that this would do it.
What are the odds this replacement “CEO” won’t receive occasional instructions from the owner of the company?
Further, what are the odds there won’t be ongoing tweets from a certain turbulent techno-priest-owner wannabe-god guy. Which tweets still drive off advertisers and sane readers?
Anybody seeing any memes about the Lettuce outlasting Elon?
That’s bad news since his cheese had slipped off that very cracker a couple weeks ago.
This editorial writer thinks they need stop reporting on Elon except in an inside the cover article called “Shit Musk Said”. I think that’s a great idea.
In addition to being the world’s second richest person, Elon Musk is now the greatest press manipulator since Donald Trump inhabited the White House. Daily, often hourly, frequently minute-by-minute, Musk intercepts the news cycle and rides it like a clown on a barrel to the astonishment of all. Should he fall, he always gets back on and rides some more as the press corps records and transmits his every gyration.
