Musk offers to buy Twitter

[GermanSuplex]

This new wave of mouthbreathing billionaires really make me appreciate Soros and the Koch brothers. Those were normal manipulative billionaires who donated quietly but were content to sit back and try again next time when the lost.

I haven’t changed my tune, I don’t think most Americans are dumb enough to buy into this nonsense from the right, and I think Trump will lose decisively. The GOP is being overtaken by extremists and weak-spined, do- nothing conservative members of congress who are more about fame and power than doing their job. How much substantial legislation have any of these MAGA-aligned congress members passed? Cruz, Mike Johnson, Jordan, Ron Johnson, Hawley, Byron Donalds, etc? Any important bills at all? They obstruct even when in the majority, they managed to cut some taxes for some billionaires, that’s damn near it in the last decade.

Can be written off as a democratic witch hunt. There’s a clear reason why these rich arseholes still support Trump - it gives them a long leash from the law and allows them to amass more wealth and avoid more taxes.

And they’ll repeat all of his lies because they see it working for him. Hopefully not for long though. I want the Trump era to end the same way as Goodfellas or Casino - a string of snitches and criminals all collapsing and being hauled off in handcuffs by the feds.

All three game console makers have now abandoned X integration

The Nintendo Switch has now sunset its X integration.

All three game console makers have now abandoned X integration

As of June 10th, Nintendo has officially discontinued support for the Switch console’s integration with X (formerly Twitter), making it the last of the current-gen consoles to do so after Microsoft and Sony disabled their own access last year.

The integration was removed as part of the Nintendo Switch’s 18.1.0 update, taking away the ability for users to link their X account with the console, or post in-game screenshots from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate directly to the social media platform. The removal of these features comprised the majority of the 18.1.0 update, which also includes some general stability improvements and ditches support for linking social media accounts via the Switch’s Friend Suggestions feature.

Nintendo announced these changes last month but didn’t explicitly state the reason for pulling support for X. Given Switch users can still share their content to Facebook, it likely has something to do with pricing changes to the X API which now starts at $42,000 a month for enterprise customers.

It appears Elon has auto-blocked many people from Apple. As of right now all their posts are deleted.

Elon Musk has unusual relationships with women at SpaceX, WSJ reports

He repeatedly asked one woman to have his children.

www.theverge.com

"Unusual relationships". Huh that's a new phrase . Yikes, and sad to see Shotwell being an enabler, but every Epstein has to have a Maxwell (slight exaggeration but ...). Seriously what is with these guys and wanting every woman on the planet to have their babies? Musk's father too.

Powerful sexual predators shielded and protected at every turn. But I'm sure "Me too" is the real problem.

Ear canal sex?

Now that Hbomberguy has literally owned elno, I think he should sell him.

For scrap, preferably.

I imagine before Musk bought Twitter everybody kissed his ass. I wonder if he is one of those elites who is so bored with the adulations, wealth, and power that every once in a while they need to be dragged into a dungeon by a waify female who kicks them in the nuts with high heels while telling them they are a worthless POS. But instead of doing that, he bought Twitter so he could post right-wing conspiracies and then get shit on with responses. That’s really thinking outside the box.

He’s highlighting the problem - lawmakers shouldn’t be beholden to an individual asshole because he has a lot of money.

I’m so sick of all these big companies threatening to go here or there because they or their company may have to pay a similar cut to one of their employees who do all the work.

Hop on a spaceship to Mars, you insufferable asshole.

God, I hope this isn’t the GOP’s third coming of Jesus once fatass kicks the bucket.

This is a few days old but didn't seem right to post in light of other news. We'll see if Elon Musk excludes Europe from X (not that there would be anything relevant lost).
