How many times will they reuse this image where his jaw is doing something super weird? This time it's gotten some fancy graphics but it's the same flipping image. I must have seen it on 10 different articles.

Probably his fillers shifting around so you might as well make fun of him, for that and his ass to head hair transplant.
Not saying you shouldn't make fun of him. Just tired of seeing the same photo on every Musk-critical article.
It was never worth what he paid for it, and his "enlightened" changes have only made things worse in terms of value.
One big thing that must be bad for advertisers is that generally, even people without a Twitter account (I've never had one) generally needed to view posts from some businesses or services. So they still had people coming by and serving ads to them without an account.
But now that you cannot even see comments on a tweet and if you're somehow able to get to a list of tweets (it usually just forces you to the login screen) you cannot get ANY useful order from it when not logged in.
Believe it or not, I think the majority of people won't create an account with a gun to their head like this. As such, the advert revenue is already down from people like me.
Furthermore, though, I suspect businesses will eventually work out that Twitter is no longer a suitable bullhorn to use to deliver promotion information or to offer customer service, and will start to move away. That's not going to help Twitter or their advertisers out either.
But, I don't think he ever planned to make it profitable. I think this weird anarchy he's iteratively implementing was what he decided to do, as soon as he was forced to finish the acquisition.
Act like a child and you get a toy, Elon.
At Elon Used Auto, they are slashing prices below 50%. Don't delay, come in today and get free undercoating.
Is the curve linear?
I don't even know where to begin on twitter, never really got into it.
