Has he fixed Twitter yet? Made back his money at least?
He spent twice what it was worth and it's never operated at a profit before or after he bought it.
Although since his actual objective was apparently to destroy it to spite his daughter than yeah it's going great.

His objective was to play stupid market games without actually buying twitter. He failed on that because they called his bluff.

I do wonder how much it would cost Tesla to remove Elon Musk.
I got nothing to say here.

They just spent $46 Billion to keep him. Tesla is bound and determined to send that ship down with its captain.

Elon Musk interviewed Donal Trump. It's as bad as you think it could have been.

I don't hate myself enough to watch it
Science Fiction is a genre where anything can happen. Just make sure what happens is enjoyable for yourself and your audience.

Apparently a year after the DeSantis one was a disaster they still haven't got the tech working.
Didn't watch it but apparently Trump was slurring all his words and announced he's a flight risk who's leaving for Argentina if he loses the election.
