I still can't fucking believe that Henry Kissinger is going to outlive twitter. that shit just blows my mind
Elon Musk is that kid who smashed all of his toys within the first twenty minutes on Christmas morning, and then he came over to your house and smashed all of yours
why is tHe SmArTeSt MaN iN tHe UnIvErSe blaming me for his failure to run a web site

(17,918 posts)16. The perfect summation of Angelo's info laden thread!
In short, the man-child is fucked in his first year of Twitter ownership. Hope he enjoys making those interest payments out of his own personal wealth. A $1 billion dollar per year interest burn is serious business.

(6,017 posts)7. That, "saddles company with debt" sure feels an awful lot like what a private equity company does
...when they takeover a company: strip it of all value (in this case a decade of user data valuable to fascists, political parties and advertisers alike), fire the employees and then when all value is extracted toss it aside or sell it as little more than a now-meaningless brand for scrap value.

That's priceless! All thanks to the petulant man-child.
Yes, man-child.
- Tesla ....doing what GM started in the freaking 80's. Whoop-dee doo.
- Space X ...Ask the Mercury 7 about that. Oh, that's right. You can't. They were launched into LEO so damn long ago they're all freaking dead.
