Re: Elon Musk
He strikes me a bit of a weapon. Let's hope the rumors that he's in talks with FTC to buy this place are unfounded.

Re: Elon Musk
Twitter is already a cesspit. Whether any new ownership makes it better or worse will only ever be an issue of degrees.
But let's not be distracted. As Spike correctly points out, the real issue is whether FTC intends to cash in and sell this place to him.

Re: Elon Musk
I'm surprised by some of the reaction from certain people, given an African American has become such an influence and success.

I was going to buy one of his electric motors but the longest extension lead I could find was a 50 yarder at Screwfix

Re: Elon Musk
The man who owns twitter genuinely thinks things are moving too far to the left. Terrifying.

Re: Elon Musk
I thought it was Facebook for over 40s, twitter for 30s - 40s, insta for 20s - 30s and embarassing 40s, snapchat and the tiktoks for teens and 20s?

Re: Elon Musk
You're correct. Hence why it's mainly a combination of Insta and Twitter for me (I just use this board in a quirky/ironic sense).Gary the Plumber wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 9:37 amI thought it was Facebook for over 40s, twitter for 30s - 40s, insta for 20s - 30s and embarassing 40s, snapchat and the tiktoks for teens and 20s?
