Elon Musk takes over Twitter

    This is pretty big b/c Elon Musk is cash poor, sold off a lot of Tesla stock to do the Twitter acquisition and borrows against his Tesla stock (which is rapidly losing value again) to fund his life. This has potential to really hang him out to dry and create a spiral that hits him hard. It could impact Tesla's stock price, which in turn makes him even poorer, because almost his entire worth is tied to the value of the stock.

    I can't find a link yet, but a Delaware judge just voided Musk's $56 billion compensation package (which gave him options to acquire significant amounts of tesla stock). This is the closest thing I can find to a synopsis.

    I hate to admit this, but my daughter is in 5th grade and school policy is she has to be LGBTQ. The PTO is telling the parents to vote for Democrats. I can’t take it.

    If there’s a real civil war 2 electric boogaloo, Musk is going to be lined up against a wall and shot. Your fake influence ain’t gonna save you, Elmo. Bezos, too.

    With that many billions in the bank he could have been anything he wished. And he became the 8th grade delinquent trying to run off the teacher.
