Musk offers to buy Twitter

[Cmaier]

Elno Blunts is angry about the sale of InfoWars to the dreaded Woke Onion, insisting that the sale does not include any Xcretia accounts because those only belong to Xcrete and he can do with them as he pleases. It is likely that he will restore them to control of Jones so that he can continue to Xcrete bullshit on Blunts' platform.

I suspect that what angers Elno the most is that the families were able to award InfoWars to someone other than the highest bidder, which means he might not be able to just buy whatever the hell he wants even though he is absurdly wealthy.

In a sense the families were the highest bidder. They were owed a couple billion dollars. So the Onion’s offer was “x million dollars, plus a further reduction of the amount owed to the families by y million dollars.”. Since the goal is to satisfy the debt to the creditors, the biggest of which is the families, the Onion’s offer does the most to achieve that goal. It reduces the debt owed by the largest amount.

He is on the spectrum (Asperger's) so that is to be expected.

The awkwardness I can deal with. The awkwardness mixed with overt racism and sense of entitlement - you know, because he’s rich and knows best - I cannot. How do you tell someone on the spectrum they are full of crap? I’d rather he vanish and play with his toys.

Yep - being on the spectrum doesn't get you a pass for being a complete asshole. Many (most?) people in IT are somewhere on the spectrum (myself included). Hmm...maybe being an asshole IS part of it?! ;D

Same here. As are quite a few of the people I work with in my IT job. I'm just not on the same part of the spectrum Elon is on.

Musk is on the racist/asshole spectrum.
Ass-pergers. Maybe we’ve misunderstood his diagnosis.

LOL. The man is a walking monument to corruption, bribery, and extortion. Those are probably what he’ll name his next 3 kids.

I really, really, really hope he and Trump - two monumentally egotistical maniac assholes - come to blows.

I will be referring to the 47th president of the United States as “President Musk”. I urge dems to make that a running theme, as we know Trump is transparently stupid and it will hurt his fragile little ego. Musk will probably love it, but you have to give a little to get a little.

I mean, they’re about to unleash monumental grift on this country. Everyone who voted for Trump may as well write ATM on their forehead and “Insert card here” around their mouth, drop to their knees, and get ready to take it in more ways than one.

It really feels inevitable, doesn't it?

It does, but I guess we can hold out hope their egos will not allow them to co-exist for long. I guess it depends on how much money they can siphon from taxpayers and other countries into their own coffers. But Trump’s ego is such I can’t see him settling for looking as if he has a co-boss. Having the world’s richest man latching onto your sphincter at Mar-A-Lago like an attached puppy is one thing, having the press show photos of Elon instead of him and mixing his name with Trump’s all the time will probably get to Trump at some point.

“President Musk” really does need to become a thing. Trump is as predictable as he is vile, and there’s no doubt it will drive what’s left of his aged scrambled brains mad. Remember, he’s now the oldest president-elect in history, and in January will become the oldest president in history. He’s mentally shot, that fact doesn’t change because he won.
