If your steering wheel falls off just lean to the right or left to turn the car.

2️⃣ The verification scandal in November was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Data from the Standard Media Index (SMI) suggests that ad spend on Twitter dropped by 71% in December year on year. It was 55% in November.— John McCarthy (@JohnGeeMcCarthy) January 31, 2023

Does that mean if advertisers spam your replies you get money? What the fuck?
― Tsar Bombadil (James Morrison), Friday, 3 February 2023 23:39 (one year ago) link
"advertisers" to twitter are paid advertisements that appear in the feed algorithmically
so if you're tweeting on brand/on trend and the algorithm inserts ads adjoining your tweets you're incentivized
I also thought "oh ads, yeah those people that tweet 'check out this cool combination vibrator/ring light'" but those are just tweets trying to hustle, not ads

On Tuesday, Musk gathered a group of engineers and advisors into a room at Twitter’s headquarters looking for answers. Why are his engagement numbers tanking?“This is ridiculous,” he said, according to multiple sources with direct knowledge of the meeting. “I have more than 100 million followers, and I’m only getting tens of thousands of impressions.”One of the company’s two remaining principal engineers offered a possible explanation for Musk’s declining reach: just under a year after the Tesla CEO made his surprise offer to buy Twitter for $44 billion, public interest in his antics is waning.Employees showed Musk internal data regarding engagement with his account along with a Google Trends chart. Last April, they told him, Musk was at “peak” popularity in search rankings, indicated by a score of “100.” Today, he’s at a score of nine. Engineers had previously investigated whether Musk’s reach had somehow been artificially restricted but found no evidence that the algorithm was biased against him.Musk did not take the news well. “You’re fired, you’re fired,” Musk told the engineer. (Platformer is withholding the engineer’s name in light of the harassment Musk has directed at former Twitter employees.)

The disarray makes it less likely that Musk will ever recoup the $44 billion he spent to buy Twitter, and may hasten its decline into insolvency.

Oh this too.. I'm sure the orders came from Lord Musk:
The president of SpaceX revealed the company has taken active steps to prevent Ukrainian forces from using the critical Starlink satellite technology with Ukrainian drones that are a key component of their fight against Russia.
“There are things that we can do to limit their ability to do that,” Gwynne Shotwell told reporters on Wednesday, referencing reports on Starlink and drone use. “There are things that we can do, and have done.”
