He doesn’t seem well. He sounds like someone that desperately needs help. Even though I think he is a giant piece of shit, I hope he has someone around him that can get him some help. Perhaps selling Twitter or just shutting it down could be part of the solution. If nothing is done, I’m afraid this guy will end up as a case of drug overdose or suicide.

I think he's caught whatever Kanye's got. Probably from the same nozzle.

FAFO man of the year
I think he'd rather be a victim than have advertisers. This smells weirdly calculated. Don't forget the whole anti-semite thing, which stayed up for just long enough to make it look like he had to take it down from some kind of mysterious "pressure", when we all know full well this dude dngaf. Like, none at all.
He doesn't need advertiser money. He can keep twitter afloat with the cash in his checking account. He'll just whine about it a lot.
None of this really bothers him. He wants loyal followers, and this is acquiring more of that. Maybe we'll get lucky, and it's to take them all to Mars. Cross your fingers everyone.
I think it does bother him, he's just trying to put on a tough guy persona. There was a story not long go about him locking himself in a room and freaking out after he got publicly booed. His reputation as a business genius is in tatters. I think that's one of the driving forces to his alignment with the right wing manosphere. They still blow smoke up his ass and call him a genius, while everyone else slowly realized he was a jackass who built his reputation on the shoulders of actual tech and business geniuses. He's just a walking checkbook.

I am not going to pay a single cent to read this news article
Is he in Scientology? He’s gone off the cliff like most of them do.
No, he is just a man child who was forced into dumping billions into a social media platform because he sucks at trolling.
"I'm going to pay 44 billions for Twitter"
"Ok, deal"
"Syke"
