Elon Musk takes over Twitter

Example 1a of why I find twitter annoying.

WTF did he just say? It's all coded and read-between-the-lines.

 

The full writeup is like reading the revolutionary thoughts I wrote while high the next morning. Inanity.

 

He didn’t end up saying much of anything.

 

Elon Musk accused of owing $500m in Twitter severance

 

I looked on Twitter today and the new head of the CDC tweeted how excited she was to start. Because I am a glutton for idiocy, I looked at the comments and the blue check brigade are all about when is she going to admit the massive harm that the vaccines have caused. Depressing.

 

The worst people on Twitter are getting paid to be there.

 

Grifter going to grift.

 

I wonder how many Twitter employees got to watch their stock holdings drop like a rock as well as getting sacked. Most of them probably.

 

Nope — they all cashed out if they had vested stock/options or if they had options/stocks which vested in the event of a change in control. Elon overpaid by a ridiculous amount so those who had skin in the game made out pretty well.

The question is whether he is going to 1) live up to the severance plan which was in place. It seems like his attitude is “fuck off and sue me”; and 2) whether he complied with the requirements of the WARN Act and California’s state mini-WARN, which it appears like he ignored, again with the same attitude.
