Elon Musk

there really is a thing with rich weirdos and having a load of kids via surrogates, my wife was just telling me about a Chinese billionaire who just had 100 babies via surrogates, all eggs from white American women, all kids to be raised in the USA

twins are more common when conceived in zero G

The ego and sociopathy of your average billionaire resulting in a desire to spread their glorious seed as far and wide as possible is... unsurprising.

No shit!

as matt levine notes musk already agreed to buy the company, so he kinda has to buy it

the reason that elon musk can't get out of the deal over the bots thing is not that he "waived due diligence." it's that he SIGNED A BINDING AGREEMENT TO BUY TWITTER, and that agreement does not have any outs for "i think there are too many bots."

which does he have more of now, children he neglects or companies he neglects

what about that poor spaceman he launched in a tesla a couple years back? the most neglected of all

When did the idea of manhood descend to being the most infantile & obnoxious person in the room?

where were the warning signs?

That's just the free market deciding what the idea of manhood should be

ok

see he does know how to pull out

Ahhh, so Elon does know how to pull out after all

ha! he still has to pay them a billion to weasel out, right? Twitter might actually turn a modest profit in July

Pouring one out for all the fascists who were waiting to get unbanned

He has to pay them $1 billion 10 years from now after everything is tied up in lawsuits in the meantime.

according to the contract he still has to pay the entire cost and in fact buy the company, the billion termination fee is for if somehow he couldnt get the deal done his financing fell through or whatever, but of course hes the richest man in the world so he can just buy twitter out of pocket which he has agreed to do

Be funny if they banned him

he can go to court maybe twitter will get sick of him and say fuck it but it seems like people who know what theyre talking about are saying this is a very open and shut case, he has agreed to buy the company

Here’s the letter

Oh, the billable hours.

This will free up funds for his hostile takeover of ILXor, we're all in for a big payout

doesn't sound very hostile

would he even be the worst poster?

would he even be the worst poster?

see you in the court of chancery bitch

The Twitter Board is committed to closing the transaction on the price and terms agreed upon with Mr. Musk and plans to pursue legal action to enforce the merger agreement. We are confident we will prevail in the Delaware Court of Chancery.

Banning him would be bad for business and probably bad for their soon to be lawsuit somehow but god would it be funny.

ok it is pretty funny that all of Trumpland is mad at him now too

He should pour billions of dollars into the Libertarians.

But for an accident of birth we could have a Musk/Yang '24 campaign.

remember when everyone was excited about Kanye running in 2020 cuz it might peel off some of the Trump votes

I think Elon could actually do it

we'll never get to find out

jarndyce & jarndyce concludes when the money at issue is finally entirely eaten up by court costs

this might be a way down the road -- and it also might not be as far down as musk fronts it -- but it would be an amusing conclusion: EM fully beggars himself with years of litigation lol 🤞🏽

smartest businessman in the world spends billions on not buying something

It’s notes you don’t play

Elon Musk: “I’m terminating my deal to buy Twitter.”

haa

Don’t see that happening

eion musk

Well you got me, well done

I never recommend Twitter but today I do. Simply for reading the Elon Stan's who r insisting Twitter execs are going to jail for fraud lmao

emergency edition of levine: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-07-09/elon-s-out

This is a brilliant move by Elon Musk. First he made an offer Twitter couldn't refuse, with the caveat of Twitter cooperating with due diligence. Unsatisfied, Musk backs out. If Twitter sues, the discovery process will sink Twitter as sure as an iceberg sank the Titanic.

god i wish somebody blindly loved me like that

something weirdly touching in their faith that he became the richest man in the world through being some sort of genius instead of incredible luck of birth & government subsidies.

To be fair he did put the board in an impossible position and has done damage that will take years to fix. Doesn’t really matter if that was his intent.
