May Twitter and Tesla go bankrupt and disappear into the nether regions of history.

Don't forget Solar City, Space X, and Starband. I'd prefer they all be nationalized.

I don't believe it's improper to track an aircraft. I used to do it all the time in our flight department. It's

"public" information too. No big

secret, unless you're the President.

The value of Twitter must be around 34 cents these days.

The Twitter user, a UCF student, who tracked Elon’s jet travels using public info is now being threatened with a law suit. How Trumpesque…

Is it just me or do any of the rest of you wonder why anyone with both integrity and intelligence would still be on twitter. I know that some have business reasons and I get that but isn’t that what vacations are for. I read today that he just sold $3.4 billion in tesla shares, which is bound to piss off a lot of tesla shareholders. 🤷‍♂️😎

Not 3.4 billion shares, shares worth $3.4 billion. And yes, with the people who are shorting Tesla stock, it should piss off the stockholders.

Thousands will jump ship now. Hope he loses EVERYTHING. Dumb isn't even kind to describe this animal.

whenever anyone announces that he or she is "a first amendment opportunist," what's actually being said is "I can say anything I want to say whenever I want to say it and the rest of you can go fuck yourselves."

I don't think I'm wrong about this...

sounds like Musk's kid feels the same way, except he doesn't have to imagine what it's like. and it sounds like it sucks. it's not as if he has a name like, say, mine. back when there were phonebooks, I once counted 26 of me, and that was just in Manhattan. but if you say "Musk," the next question is bound to be something "uhhh...any relation to...."

Ted Cruz's poor daughter can also sort of "blend in," although it probably (as is actually also the case with me) depends on the neighborhood.

Musk is up to proving his bònifides? No better way than dump a few minor libs. Chest pounding is heard. Conservatives are calmed. Musk isn't Soros.

Hope he sits amid the worse crash ever, with wreckage all around. Sort of like he and his ilk wish on us.

And sometimes the absolutely most effective way to tell it is a simple roll call.

Hurray, TC. And, dear heavenly beings whoever you are, this might not be the game, but it's a darned good halftime show. I just can't figure out what planet we're on and how we got this far from any semblance of reality. Musk is so terrible that I actually feel like I've been slimed.

Couldn`t this just be part of his strategy to purposely bankrupt Twitter??

Musk needs meds.

I'm sure he's on plenty of them, and that's not counting Adderall which I'm told by a friend's daughter--who works for some hedge fund people--is the essential chemical fuel for the entire world of finance.

amphetamine compromises one's judgment, and that's the LEAST of it. I noticed yesterday that SBF's lawyer (or something) pointed out that he's on medication for depression and ADHD. so are we supposed to let him SLIDE? that would seem to be the argument.

and in Musk's case, he STARTED OUT as a thoroughgoing asshole.
