Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.
At this moment, I’m staying with my fediverse accounts.
Because when something is constantly in your face that you think is overblown, asking who cares is a sign that you are sick of the thing that you are unable to avoid.
It is hard to ignore when it is everywhere all the time.
I’m so, so sick of seeing his face every time I browse the internet
same. i’ve been downvoting any posts about him because it’s always some bullshit. it’s never anything good.
This is him getting loudly and publicly booed, which I personally consider good.
The sad part is, I think that’s what he wants. He seems to be a believer in the whole any attention is good attention.
What he wants is immaterial. This isn’t a good sign for him and the BS contrarian “bad things said about or happening to are actually good for instert-right-winger-here” is delusional coping
He’s got a sick addiction to playing the heel it seems, except people sort of like heels but musk has get off the planet go away heat.
Yeah, same here, I downvote Musk, Zuckerberg and Trump posts.
This addon helps a little bit but it’s not perfect yet, it still shows some pictures https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/block-the-rich/
I can filter his name as a keyword on Sync for Lemmy.
Would be nice if there was a way to “spoiler tag” pictures for other reasons than nsfw
Hes a famous billionaire. Get used to it or media will shove it up yo ass.
Don’t let this clown go anywhere without letting him know how much everyone hates his ass.
If we can’t take his money, this is the next best thing
Let’s just hope he doesn’t have a humiliation/degradation kink.
We should take everything.
Bring back the classics. Not sure when/ why rotten tomatoes went out of style. Rotting onions could be a good remix/ update.
Tomatoes splat really well, especially rotten ones. Maybe eggs would be good, but tomatoes are cheaper. I think an open source easy to make at home slimy and smelly (preferably also something that stains) water balloon solution could do the job for a modern consumer base. Who wants to carry around smelly rotten tomatoes?
The cheapest dishwashing soap you can find mixed with water, maybe?
Why chant bring back Twitter, I mean if it was rebranded back to Twitter, it’s still owned by Elon and it’s still shit.
The new name alone isn’t what made Twitter crap, but it is symbolic of the massive changes made to the site by the new management. I like to think of it this way: Twitter is dead. X is the reanimated corpse.
X is modern New Coke. At this point, I’m not even sure which of the worst CEOs I’d compare musk to. He’s like all of their worst traits rolled into one. I have no doubt there’s some weird financial accounting going on at Tesla, just that they haven’t been found out just yet. His involvement into the crypto sphere and with doge should have thrown up regulatory alarm bells already.
There’s only so much you can say in a chant. Not a lot of room for nuance…
A chant with more words becomes a song.
Now a song about how shitty x is, sang by hundreds, like what football fans do, that would be great to hear.
I think what we really want is to have it restored to pre-musk-ownership level of functionality. But that doesn’t make for a nice four syllable group chant. Also I doubt the douche is capable of ever admitting how wrong he was.
the corporate ownership of formerly-essential social media giant
Savage
The truth hurts.
Do you guys think there’s a part of him that realizes that people dislike him for a legitimate reason? I mean, he started out being the darling of the internet, when he was in the early stages with SpaceX and Tesla. His cult of personality was pretty large. Obviously he still has fanboys, but he has to realize that he ended up on the fringe, right? Right?
He knows, and he doesn’t care.
Once he became the richest person on the planet, he stopped giving a shit. Money buys anything he wants, so why should he.
Honestly, as much as I think he’s a db, and i dislike what hes become, I kinda find it makes him more relatable. I mean, who wouldn’t be consumed by extreme money and power? If anything, it distracts from the idea that you’re a giant cash bag and reminds people that you’re only human. Although from what I understand, he always been this way, and he just had a great PR team in the beginning.
They should have rushed him.

Time to put my circa-2001 HTML skills to the test! Anyone got a lead on a good “Under construction” gif? Also who’s got the best guest book add-on these days?

Definitely use the tags, I’m sure modern browsers still support them.
How do I make the mouse have trails? I want it to be rainbow trails!

Haven’t drugs been used as an explanation for his mammoth missteps with Twitter? Because the way this guy is piloting the ship, he’s going to crash it into Prince William Sound at any moment. They’ll be scrubbing stupid posts off the seabirds for months.
You don’t need drugs when you’re stupid.
But some drugs can affect your intelligence, and if he was intelligent enough to at least lay low and take credit for others’ work before, it appears he no longer has at least that baseline.
It has absolutely nothing to do with drugs. Not even in the slightest. He acted this way before he bought Twitter. He acted this way when he wormed his way into Paypal. This is just his thing. The only difference is people give him attention now. Iron Man, Rick and Morty, and the general Internet praise made him too comfortable.
I think the Rick and Morty joke flew over people’s heads tbh. He’s kinda portrayed as a useless dick, I mean his character just did what he does in real life. Let others solve the problem while he tries to take some or all credit.
Constant praise by sycophants and people wanting to believe in a better future at the hand of high tech billionaires also does the trick. It works like a pump for inflatable egos.
Well thank you for making me choke on my coffee. That seabirds comment really caught me off guard.
Drugs, a breakdown, midlife crisis, or just Elon showing us who Elon actually is. Find out on the next episode of downward spiral!

Good job gamers.
Well now his ego is hurt and we get to see what else he ruins in a tantrum lol I wonder if he’ll try to buy out the IP and call it EX or something equally dumb lol
That’d be fun, especially considering that he’ll have to pay big bucks to Tencent, who wholly own Riot Games. All discussion would quickly devolve into a anti/pro China flamewar
picture yourself in a pit of swaety gamers chanting ‘bring back twitter’ at a guy wouldnt piss on you if you were on fire.
The rose colored glasses Twitter junkies suddenly got for Jack Dorsey is astounding
Oh no, now what is he going to ruin. This man has a “new idea to improve things” everytime a crowd boo’s him
Well, he can’t remove the blocking feature on Xitter anymore to make himself seem popular, he already did that.

Believe it or not, that is the joke

:(
Eh, he also ruins things based on reactions to things he sees on twitter too. And he’s on it all the time. Elon Musk ruining things is basically automated now.
Don’t stop him! He’s making the world a solid! He’s eliminating Twitter ffs.
Give him new ideas like join with a paid invitation only.
