Do you like me?

( ) yes
( ) no

maybe he finally crashed after weeks of no sleep

maybe he finally crashed after driving one of his cars

i was joking but the saudis absolutely would kidnap him for a lil while if they felt like it

please don’t give out my assassination coordinates before I go hang out with a bunch of murderers with billions invested in the thing I’m plainly fucking up

noted sports fan elon musk hopping on a 15 hour flight to take in the world cup with his best friends

he looks absolutely thrilled to be there too!

he left qatar via london luton hours ago. still has all his fingers.

Wearing a worn-out t-shirt to an event viewed by the entire world is quite a power move.

jfc caek are you trying to get him killed

mods

So I guess also don't drink this dude's coffee...

Elon is taking Twitter policy advice from a dude who was banned from Magic: The Gathering events for harassing women and pissed on his own floor during a live stream because he was mad his wife got pizza without him https://t.co/y6gqnfHnNM

“Live stream”

He had better find a cure for cancer, because Mars has no magnetosphere and its surface is constantly blasted by radiation. https://t.co/1HiD6i6glA

interesting

What does catturd2 think?

This is a good idea, I think in the future instead of asking everyone if they hate me I will just ask people who've had their tongues cut out

love the idea that an $8 monthly subscription is "skin in the game"

*holds out palm* gimme some skin*!

*8 bucks

He's kind of acting like a vulture capitalist but forgetting the part where you extract money from the thing before you kill it. He's gone in reverse, he can never get out of it anything close to what he put into it. Stripped for parts, what's Twitter worth? I guess he could, like, auction off Lady Gaga's DMs or something.

My first thought was that he was ripping-off Zelenskyy's olive green shirt look

I'm no expert on management but running a poll to establish whether you should stay in charge of things seems an incredibly stupid thing to do, how would you build employee trust after that?

Employee what?

lmao he's establishing his own apartheid system on Twitter now that the poll didn't go his way

Legendary posting week: using your ex’s stalker to win a fight by fabricating a threat against your kid, having your mom show up to defend you, banning anyone who questions your story, then losing the poll you created about whether you should remain a mod

Tesla down 4% since opening. Rapidly approaching $140. I wonder when the margin calls kick in.

yeah I gotta imagine it's somewhere around the 125-130 mark. pretty significant because Elon would lose an insane amount of cash should that actually happen

Yes, but that's all part of the plan!

do ultra-rich people and hedge funds ever really get margin calls these days? assumed that was a tool used to punish small investors trying to horn in on profits from the backroom deals the big boys have made

it happened in the 2011 film margin call

actually im not sure if it did happen theyve mightve just named it that cause it sounds cool, i cant remember even tho i watched it recently, pretty sick movie tbf

down another 6% today lmao

the margin calls are made by banks or other financial businesses that are bigger than the hedge funds and ultra-rich, and they don't take kindly to losing money they don't have to lose. it's the legal (and politer) form of the lender breaking the arm of the debtor to encourage prompt payment.

yeah I think conceptually the 2008 financial crisis was precipitated by a few giant margin calls

i would do it i dont care who it is they have my money and not enough margin im gonna make that call you best believe
