You posted about your cat; you are now required by posting law to post pictures of said cat.

don't worry, she later ensured us that bari weiss and matt taibbi weren't actually given unfettered access to DMs and she was the one taking those screenshots actual photographs

do you not feel reassured?

He is now in the "Disney reactively scrambling to contort Star Wars into whatever screeching online weirdos want it to be, only to realize everything they "fix" makes them even madder and screechier" phase of his Twitter ownership. Only Elon doesn't have the self awareness to just give up, and so he will fold himself into a corncob trying to fix everything the fix to the fix to the fix to fix to the fix has broken this time according to catturd2 and TheQuartering and Dave Rubin.

He's incapable of realizing the problem is his target demographic sucks and the fix is to ban them all and target a different demographic.

Don’t feel too sorry for her. Irwin and that other ghoul Esther Crawford (she of the performative sleeping on the office floor) who threw their former colleagues under the bus and sold their souls to Musk deserve no sympathy.

Musk is at least transparently capricious, imagine people you used to work with going full Nazi high command overnight. Must be quite demoralising.

He really is hosed either way then. Catering to them is doomed to failure because they will never be satisfied with anything they wring out of him, and banning them is an equally doomed prospect because the ire it will earn him from all of them will consume the rest of his and their lives, they're that relentless. There's no way out for him.
