On my mobile device for the past week, a password splash page keeps appearing. I have no idea what my Twitter password is (or if I ever created one). I don't tweet. I only read others' pages. The problem with the splash page is there's no "forgotten password" or "reset password" links!

Usually you don’t scare off the people who can keep it running. It’s probably going to collapse here in the next couple of months if that. The site is already bogging down and bugging out… there’s nobody around to fix it or keep up with the problems to the point Elon started begging the people to come back.
Would you care to edit or retract this missive now that The Great Orange is Twitting again?
Why would I do that? I’m talking about employees. Who cares if he’s tweeting or not? If the sites falling apart (which it is) what’s that got to do with literally anything?

It's not falling apart.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Whatever. It’s already broken in a few countries, it’s losing users in droves and he has massive fake account problem after his disastrous pay for a checkmark idea. He’s got big problems.

Yet he's taken care of a major issue it had before: being an exclusive left wing cesspool.

He has bought himself 6 years
Elon Musk is aiming to increase Twitter's (TWTR.N) annual revenue to $26.4 billion by 2028, up from $5 billion last year, the New York Times reported on Friday, citing a pitch deck presented by the world's richest man to investors.

Advertising will fall to 45% of total revenue under Musk, down from about 90% in 2020, generating $12 billion in revenue in 2028, while subscriptions are expected to pull in another $10 billion, according to the report.

The head of electric-vehicle maker Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) also aims to increase Twitter's cash flow to $3.2 billion in 2025 and $9.4 billion in 2028, the newspaper reported, citing the presentation.

Elon has stolen Qanon from Trump...
Twitter owner Elon Musk’s boosting of far-right memes and grievances has injected new energy into the jumbled set of conspiracy theories known as QAnon, a fringe movement that Twitter and other social networks once banned as too extreme.

Tonight, Elon's been going on a banning spree, banning journalists who are covering him, including Keith Olbermann, CNN reporters Aaron Rupar and Donie O'Sullivan and several others. He has gone too far, IMO.

So much for the Conservative hero of free speech.
