lol this made me look up his IQ, which is not known but has been "estimated" at 150-155
(i.e. this is what *he* says it is i suspect) (lying as usual)
(IQ is a garbage measure in any case but also haha no way)

Elon Musk now has bodyguards flank him everywhere inside Twitter HQ ā including accompanying him to the bathroom. He is reportedly paranoid that someone in the company may go rogue & stage a coup. https://t.co/BdTQvvJmqg— William LeGate (@williamlegate) March 6, 2023

he also doesn't understand the point of office space. having to constantly justify your existence to heartless bureacrats is what drives people to despair at initech. the audience is meant to laugh -- bitterly -- at management's lack of humanity, not the employee's lack of relevance.

Mr Thorleifsson is worried that Mr Musk will not honour the contract he signed with Twitter when he sold them his company."This is extremely stressful. This is my retirement fund, a way to take care of myself and my family as my disease progresses. Having the richest man in the world on the other end of this, potentially refusing to stand by contracts is not easy for me to accept," he said.

I saw also that this Halli guy is allegedly really generous with his money in Iceland and seems to be a really well liked guy. But even if he was a miserable grump, it's still fucking appalling to see Musk do that in public and ultra depressing to see the chuds cheering him on.
I just want this fuck to go away forever.
