Twitter the most interesting place on the internet?
Fucking hell
Elon's having so much fun.
Of course, he hasn't (afaik) visited TNCR, so he might not be completely informed, yet.

In all honesty, I feel compelled to say that he’s having a lot less fun than I’d be having if I had a Brazilian dollars

There is a lawsuit being filed by twitter employees, alleging that Musk was legally obligated to provide 60 days notice and retraining opportunities before a large layoff, by CA law.
I saw that as well. I'll bet that his attorneys have already considered that.
"You're fired as of 60 days from now. Here's a list of places you can find training."
When we dismissed one of our partners, we did it without cause, and we gave 90 days.

Zooming out a bit, I’ve been thinking about how a Musk owned Twitter will net out. I don’t have any major conclusions but a few observations at this point.
-
I think he’s going to be constrained by his advertisers to a much greater extent than his newest fans believe.
-
At some point he’ll likely realize that his own trollishness is not good for the brand.
-
He might even see some backlash extend to Tesla.
-
That doesn’t mean he’ll be able to control himself though. He seems to be pretty impulse driven.
-
I think he’ll end up taking it public again at some point, perhaps retaining controlling interest through dual share classes. My over/under for such a move is 3 years.
