Don't blame weed for his shit-show. Even if you were high as fuck this shit makes no sense.

I was more commenting on Musk somehow being even more of an arsehole when intoxicated rather than a comment on the intoxicant itself.

He's on way more than weed. The guy's Twitter feed is a drug induced psychotic break.

Is it wrong to hope he has a Michael Hutchence moment?

Oh man, that would be too funny. I use Twitter a little, it is handy for stage times for gigs, and I find some people interesting now and again. Oh, and Fesshole of course.

But! If it got blocked, I would laugh every damned day.

I swear it is gonna be tomorrow's Myspace, nature abhors a vacuum and the internet is full of clever fuckers who will fill it.

I had some interesting encounters on Twitter, back in the day. It was an unexpected way of being able to interact directly with celebrities - it would catch me off-guard when I'd make a little comment on some celeb's tweet, and they'd actually reply directly to me. I had several fun conversations that way. Leah Cairns was one, back when the tv show "Travelers" was airing, and I commented on a pic of the cast. She was super sweet about it all, was really cool. Another was Jennifer Jason Leigh, from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" if anyone needs a nudge about who she is. The very first was Debra Messing, not too long after I'd signed up. Out of the blue we were having some sort of tweet conversation about something or other, I don't even recall. I was far too star-struck haha!

Ah, good times. The whole shit show can have an entirely public meltdown into nothingness, I'd love to see it

I have had a couple of brief chats with Richard E Grant on Twitter, as well as a good few members of metal bands, some pretty big. I am quite friendly with Ryan Van Pooderoyen, who used to drum for the Devin Townsend Project - we have a shared love of dogs and cars and have had some long online chats on Twitter and Facebook, to the point he calls me by name, which is kinda nice. Not really famous, but social media gave me the opportunity to interact regardless.

But still, fuck Elon Musk and the rancid thing he is responsible for mutating into its worst possible form.

Mr Musk gets the boo...


The account that originally uploaded it to Twitter yep you guessed it, suspended an hour later. :lol:

The "Twitter files" bullshit has nothing on what was really going on at Twitter, it does give lie to the muddying of the water to get in front of it though:

Everything on the internet is 100% true.

So Musk has tweeted a poll asking users to vote on whether he should step down from being in charge of Twitter, claiming he'll abide by the result. As of time of writing, there've been 15 million responses and it currently sits at 57% 'Yes' . I've voted the same just to see if it ends up getting me banned.

Yes count me in. Prick is looking for any way out of his current death-spiral I suspect.

Except, as owner, he'll still be making loads of shitty decisions while acting like a prat on the platform himself and continuing to tank it.
