Hed o’ the day so far …
But earlier this month, he said he would move the company’s headquarters to Austin, citing a new Golden State law meant to protect LGBTQ+ children as the “final straw.”
Imagine being so full of hate for a highly vulnerable group of people that you base your business decisions around it.
Imagine hating your own daughter that much. We need more people like Tennant, less people like Musk and Rowling.
I cannot comprehend how he can run his businesses so badly yet without any apparent consequence.
That’s what happens when you have so much money that you can just do crazy things knowing that statistically something will make money.
I don’t think musk does have that much money though. He’s leveraged to the eyeballs & his businesses (Tesla & Space X) are not profitable without govt subsidies while starlink had repeatedly failed to meet targets & has competitors about to cut into it’s market.
I have my suspicions that Peter Thiel is assisting him to a degree as Twitter serves his purpose.
Pretty much. These platforms right wingers take over are propaganda dissemination devices, not entirely “for profit” enterprises anymore.
State funding.
Don’t leave me hanging, what happened to the rice? Will the bag make it? Where do I I send my thoughts and prayers?
The bag seems to be fine, but we still don’t know what butterfly effects it will have to its surrounding. I quote a local farmer:
Yawn
I have a direct quote from the farmer’s horse and it’s ‘Neigh’
Thank you for greatly improving California with this decision, elon!
Is this Technology or Elon Musk subcommunity?

Are the roving gangs of violent drug addicts in the room with us now? Or do they go to a different school?

Lol… The Twitter offices are even in a nicer area of the SF business district. I’ve walked around that building many times in the middle of the night and during the day and have never felt unsafe.
What a weirdo.

Funny, he used the exact same wording of the bots I see on Twitter and FB describing cities.
Like he ever saw anyone going in or out. Guaranteed he had a driver and security with him at every moment.
I’m guessing if he ever did have an actual homeless person accost him he’d wet himself.
