    Word, often you’ll read an online article for a large media chain and they will display and link tweets with basically no activity to them.

    …and “Twitter blows up” is certainly something that should make people put on their rally caps. Twitter is like some spoiled twat living in Brooklyn who thinks the entire world should think exactly like them, willfully live in their bubble, and then become outraged when they realize Bernie Sanders isn’t going to be president.

    China holding its Communist Party congress, and Hu Jintao basically got the Vercingetorix treatment.

    Let’s face it: Branson knows how to be a billionaire better. When you hire hot naked chicks to piggy back you while you kite surf…. You’re doing the right things with your money.

    … and, he beat Bezos into space inside something that DOESN’T look like a throbbing shaft. Scoreboard, bitch.

    I wonder how many of those devs that said they'd walk out actually do.

    I'm voting for "next to none".

    Probably zero. Same with the people that threatened to quit the platform if he bought it.

    Why bother? Just let Zuckerberg keep pushing that Metaverse bullshit no one wants to be a part of until his shareholders get fed up.

    Twitter users are wasting no time in proving Musk's critics right. It's like a wall of hate speech, some of which I had to google in order to get the references.

    If he does, the one silver lining will be that Truth Social's stock price is going straight to zero, which will just be hilarious.

    Remember back to 2000, and a bunch of celebrities said they'd move to Canada if W. got elected, and none of them did?

    Because I remember.

    That is certainly a deep cut of old-timey racism.

    Next week, you will need a permit and a background check for hammers in SF.

    Didn't he get a DUI a few months back?

    Damn those are going to be some crazy medical bills. Nancy might have to double-down on the insider trading on chip stocks just to make ends meet. *~Thoughts and Prayers~*

    I don't like Nancy Pelosi at all, and don't know her husband, but he seems like a typical pompous ass. However, if this turns out to be politically motivated, that shit needs to stop.
