Elon Musk now owns Twitter

[Gomez Adams]

It's not just him either. The EU Secretary General let him have it as well.

Musk doesn't care though. He will continue to believe he is God until he's flat broke, and even then he'll still think he is.

Twitter’s head of trust and safety Ella Irwin told Reuters on Thursday that she has resigned from the social media company.​

​

I wasn't aware there was even any such department still at Twitter.

Oh well. Nothing of value was lost.

I can see a 'trust' department. I expect it's an Integral-Affairs type department ensuring no staff are changing people's words or similar shenanigans.

I was speaking tongue in cheek. I know what it is, it's just that Elon seems to have done away with it completely.

Twitter is just pure garbage now. It's completely flooded with ads, one every other post, and for the last two days it's nothing but anti-vaccine bullshit with Joe Rogan backed up by Elon Musk.

This is about as cheap-assed a tactic as I've ever seen.
