I’m just imagining Kramer’s apartment inChicken Roaster.

Kinyutaka ,

It is hard to come up with a better metaphor for a pathological need for attention than a 20 foot tall icon, shining brighter than the sun, and strobing into elderly people’s apartments.

He just Musk’d up the neighborhood.

He’s worse than a Spaceball

All Elon has to do is… nothing. He doesn’t have to come up with ‘hilarious’ tweets, he doesn’t have to make an everything app, he doesn’t need to run any of his companies. He could retire right now and just do whatever he felt like in his private life.

But he’s such a needy little attention whore that he won’t do that.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

If he does not want to be in charge of a non-profitable company, why bring the responsibility upon himself? Oh yes, because Tesla is involved in scandals and any investment is better than that.

BurtReynoldsMustache ,

You’re saying all that as if he couldn’t have done the very same thing like 25 years ago back in the 90s. Technically, he never had to become an “entrepreneur” in the first place… daddy’s apartheid emerald mine gave him a cushy little trust fund to live off for the rest of his life without anyone ever knowing anything about him. But sadly, he’s a spoiled little bitch who throws a tantrum when the media spotlight is off him for longer than 5 minutes.

Snapz ,

This, like the rest of it, is on purpose. He wants to create a “they are hostile to me in SF despite my desire to stay in the city, so I will now relocate Twitter to Texas”. Ultimately, he wants to destroy Twitter as it was previously a place used to organize movements (Arab spring, Saudis are #2 investor in Twitter behind musk) and amplify information about the embarrassing failures and crimes of fascists like him. Destroy the validity (and even basic functionality) of the site, and less people hear those messages.

Chronically-divorced megalomaniac coward who’s daddy didn’t/doesn’t love him.

Zahille7 ,

His dad was the first one to prove they weren’t a poor South African family because Elon, in his infinite assheadedness, put up a bounty for people to claim he wasn’t actually a poor.

Another day, another publicity stunt.

I think stunts worked out well for Musk’s image initially because he was seen as “Iron Man IRL” and his… widely imaginative ideas were seen as genius and innovative.

However, as his current image has now become “middle schooler in a grown man’s body with way too much money”, all of his stunts only reinforces that image into his descent into the butt of the joke. He of course, doesn’t seem to understand that and only looks to double down.

It’s good that we’re all sick of hearing about him at this point, because that’s the reputation a person like him deserves.

Valmond ,

It feels more and more like a cry of help “Look at me! Please look at me!”

So boring urgh

MargotRobbie ,
@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world avatar

He’s always been like that. You just never noticed it until the illusion shattered to reveal the terrible person behind it.

This is also the reason why even smart people fall for scams too. People are emotional and only see what they want to see.

TransplantedSconie ,

I would be shooting that fucker every night with an air soft rifle.

I love how even the news isn’t calling Twitter “X,” even when it’s talking about the stupid giant pulsating X Elon put up as a giant DivorcedMan signal.

MercuryUprising ,

Wannabe dictator acts like a giant crybaby and tries to get attention, to the surprise of absolutely no one.

Saneless ,

What an insecure aged boy Musk is

MercuryUprising ,

He’s showing us how much smarter he is than the rest of us and why he deserves the billions he has.

Saneless ,

I wish this place had a sarcasm font so it doesn’t seem like someone is actually dense but instead is being quite funny. So hard to tell these days

Butters ,
@Butters@lemmywinks.com avatar

You really need a font to detect that as sarcasm?

Saneless ,

Sadly these days, it’s too real a statement for someone

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

this place

We should have implemented a sarcasm flag in the English language, like in Lojban, where unmarked jokes, sarcasm and offhand remarks are syntactically incorrect. However, English is a natural language undergoing evolution and generally does not conform to new prescriptive rules.

What logically necessitates?

CaptainHowdy ,

Why is everything Elon does, or by extension Twitter, newsworthy? I’m so sick of hearing about this fucker every day.

chrischryse ,

He wants attention cuz daddy no longer gives him it

MercuryUprising ,

Is daddy what he calls Grimes?

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

That’s because his daddy is giving it to his step-daughter.

BloodForTheBloodGod ,

People down voting you don’t know that Musks dad is fucking his now pregnant step sister that he raised (groomed) since she was a child.

Jfc. What a shit show In case anyone needs a source:

independent.co.uk/…/elon-errol-musk-children-step…

some_guy ,

As I clicked to load comments, I thought to myself that there hasn’t been a single article that presented anything he’s done with Twitshit as positive. I wondered if that’s bias or whether he’s fucked up on every change. But you’re right. I’m ready to stop hearing about it. It sucks when children are billionaires.

octoperson ,

The only thing he’s ever really been good at is getting attention. And fair play to him - here we are talking about him

PlantJam ,

I’m really looking forward to having content filter options. I don’t want to block technology or news, I just want to filter out anything that mentions Twitter, Elon, Musk, and quite a few other key words. I think connect for lemmy has this option, I just couldn’t stand the UI.

FinalRemix ,

What do you recommend in place of Connect?

PlantJam ,

I’m using jerboa until boost for lemmy comes out.

FinalRemix ,

I just reinstalled it. Works great, and I can actually see my inbox!

SasquatchBanana ,

Because Twitter is something many people use and is part of our lives. The terms tweet and retweet is in our lexicon and a lot of breaking news appear on twitter. It’s clearly important to us and as evidenced by Mastodon, Blue Sky, and Threads, we humans want a form of twitter. I agree and it has some utilitarian use. There’s something “internety” about short blips of info with quick vids if necessary that anyone can access.

It may not seem important, but with Google trying to push DRM browsing, their search algo shitting itself, reddit crapping itself, Youtube being Youtube, etc. the old internet as we knew it is dying. The old internet being the free one we knew that wasn’t centralized, full of forums, and felt a different kind of alive. I think that’s why the news for Twitter is important.

Now, do we need to know about the people complaining about the X sign? Maybe not, i kind of don’t think so, but it is nice to have a record of it for future reference. It most likely didn’t need to reach my all/local page but people upvoted it.

Treczoks ,

That’s in the US, isn’t it? And that’s nothing a bullet or two can’t fix…

Saneless ,

Destroying property is a no no in the states. Ironically if children were slaves (therefore property) we might actually get somewhere in having better laws protecting them from getting shot

Hellsadvocate ,

Wasn’t that one of the arguments against women’s rights?

Saneless ,

Wouldn’t surprise me

TheAndrewBrown ,
@TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.world avatar

Wasn’t that logo supposed to be temporary? Sure doesn’t seem temporary if they’re installing a sign on the offices.

instamat ,

Yep, that’s what he said, but that was an out so he could reverse course if the criticism was too loud
