I was wondering how long it would take for the queen of stupid to chime in on all of this. Big Grin

Bless her heart. She doesn’t even realize people like her helped make these changes to Twitter not only possible but inevitable. Big Grin


That response by the way from Elon is brilliant trolling. AOC claimed someone was hitting on her because of all the negativity and attention she was getting. Elon remembers this and is mocking her for it. Cool

These children actually flagged as "sensitive content" a Babylon Bee post about Twitter employees being upset about Musk taking over Twitter?

Twitter employees are upset about being chided about being upset? Roll Eyes

Bill Maher rips Twitter for flagging Babylon Bee amid Elon Musk takeover

"AOC thinks @elonmusk is a men’s cologne."

I can't take credit, I stole it from someone with the twitter handle 'Mini AOC'.

...also said "Joe Biden thinks 9-11 are his work hours."

Man, Elon Musk is not farting around today. He reminds me of Trump in that he's got a gift for taking whatever his detractors are flinging at him that day, picking it up and flinging it back in their stunned faces 10 times harder:

NBC/MSNBC has been on a "All Republicans are Rightwing White Nationalist Nazis!" tear today and Musk has finally had enough:

Same org that covered up Hunter Biden laptop story, had Harvey Weinstein story early & killed it & built Matt Lauer his rape office. Lovely people.

They are absolutely terrified of this guy, I love it.

From what I read years ago, the "face" of Twitter, the blue bird, was inspired by Celtics legend Larry Bird.

Shatner's cool, but not as cool as Larry Legend Smile

Elon makes a really good point; why are none of the child rapists being shoved under the spotlight? I think we know the reason…

"Thank you, but don't feel for me."

Damn, son, you're getting a 42 million dollar payout. Why should anyone feel sorry for you, you fucking narcissist?

You're getting 42 million for getting fired. Be HAPPY, you spoiled brat!

I can count the forums I am registered at on one hand.
No social media for me either. But the more people Musk pisses off,the more I am leaning towards a twitter account.
