Now that Elon Musk has bought Twitter - now the Pit edition (Part 1)

So, a clever plan to drive away Twitter’s last advertisers?

Agile marketing.

Elmo has now banned the account of the #BlockTheBlue campaign - which is currently #4 trending in the US.

Musk: “Free speech for everyone! No more hierarchy! Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of reach.”
“Ok, #BlockTheBlue
Musk: “No, not that free speech! You’re doing it wrong.”

I’m not a weed person, but $50 a day sounds like a lot. Do Elon stans just not know how much stuff costs?

Also, unless I’m very mistaken, you aren’t paying for identity verification, right? You’re basically just paying for the checkmark itself.

It’s a great strategy for the ad revenue, though

  1. Anonymous Company: Hey, Elon, let me give you monies for Twitter ads
  2. Elon: LOL NO! Pay me for a checkmark first and then you are allowed to give me the monies
  3. Anonymous Company: Get bent
  4. Profit!

It’s around $80 an oz around these parts for decent quality herb.
They must be using those Cheech and Chong rolling papers from the Big Bamboo album.

That’s basically correct, though I believe Elmo does require those paying for the checkmark to also give him a working phone number.

You know, so he can sell it to telemarketers.

Not really wanting to link to Elmo’s site, but:

From help dot twitter dot com:

*Security: Your account must be older than 30 days upon subscription and have a confirmed phone number .

So, they’re paying to confirm a phone number exists, not for identity. And you get to pay for the privilege.

I probably need to get up to 20000ft, because I can’t see how any of this makes sense from this vantage

Oh you poor mere mortal…

Someone’s never heard of tracfone.

At the rate he is losing money, he should take this deal!

(The Beaverton is satire, FYI, in case it isn’t blindingly obvious)

…and now the Hailee Steinfeld Updates" account, the “Best of Hailee Steinfeld” account, and the “Ana de Armas Updates” account dominate my “for you” feed LOL. He done gone and broke it. I’m having to check both the display name and the account name to see if they are the real account or not, and even then I’m not entirely sure. Unusable.

Elmo thinks TSLA is going to be $2000/share four years from now, because Elmo is lying, insane, or most likely both

Who the hell is ARKinvest? Sounds like one of those Christian theme park developers.

Someone is off by several orders of magnitude! Million billion scmillion.

…and to cap off my very bad day on Twitter Dot Com, my followers have been stuck on this number for the last couple of days.

Well, if trends continue…

Maybe the stock price is an unsigned int and he’s relying on an overflow error.
