It looks like even Elon has limits as he's rebanned Kanye West after the latest ramblings, rightly too. The man has jumped the shark from jumping the shark. I mean wtf. Even Alex Jones has disowned him!

And the Ye is running for President!

Alex Jones (Odious Person he is) has his own problems with the litigations against him, Think he now has to pay about $500m in damages to the families of the Sandy Hook shootings after saying it was a hoax and actors were used etc, As for West, He is going down the loopy road now.

Correction here, It is $1.5bn the odious Jones has to pay out and has now filed for personal bankruptcy.

Their outgoings are way up and income is way down. Plus Tesla stock (on which Musk's wealth is largely based) is dropping like a stone. Something has to give, and it will probably be twitter.
Outgoings won't be way up once redundancy payments are out of the way. He's slashed staffing by 50% without any noticeable degradation to performance. In less than six months' time, operating costs will be way down. And as for profitability, I see that Apple and Amazon have come run back wrt advertising.

As for Tesla stock, the whole tech sector is being hammered. For instance, Amazon stock has been affected just as badly and Meta stock is down by much further over the space of 1 year.

How long then do you think it'll be until Twitter will be gone?
