“Unless the woke mind virus, which is fundamentally anti-science, anti-merit, and anti-human in general, is stopped, civilisation will never become multi-planetary,” Mr Musk told Mr Isaacson.

A meme representing Edgar Allan Poe in two panels. In the second panel, the words "what the fuck am I reading?" appear.

“If you want to just be a niche player an iconic name, PayPal is a better name, But if you want to take over the world’s financial system it to be impossible to reliably websearch and talk about outside a very specific context, then X is the better name.”

Fixed that for you.

There’s a reason why people still call it Twitter, you know.

He said in April: “Twitter could become what X.com should have been, and we can help save free speech in the process.”

And a potato could become a bell pepper to save my gulasch. Sadly it won’t because reality doesn’t magically revolve around my belly button, and it wouldn’t even if I were rich. So instead I’m making some curry.

Musk should learn to cook.

Mr Musk suggested charging people to be verified to eliminate bots, bring in cash and help transform it into a payments platform - fulfilling his “original vision” for X.com

Ignorance on the nature of his own platform. Even if you demanded a single cent out of it, saner people won’t put their credit card info there, simply because they want to reduce the amount of data that you can vulture out of them.

In other words he flushed the baby alongside the dirty bathtub water.

Mr Agrawal had tried to resign. // “But we beat him,” said Mr Musk’s lawyer, Alex Spiro.

TIL Musk behaves like an internet shitposter.

And a potato could become a bell pepper to save my gulasch. Sadly it won’t because reality doesn’t magically revolve around my belly button …

I love you.
