Lil’ Samhain is one of the wannabe edgy dipshits hereabouts. Usually on The Root.

The free grab bags are very clearly gifts. There’s no implication that the celebrities bought those things themselves, and there’s no public-facing markers involved that announce a celebrity owns a thing without also indicating how they got it, without any input from the celebrity themselves.

Norm Macdonald and Chadwick Boseman didn’t just leave twitter they left this mortal coil and they still can’t get away from the forced blue check.

Which would be a better analogy if the information for the comped Blue Checks read “This user has been granted Twitter Blue free of charge because of their value to the Twitter community.” As it stands, it’s basically implying that the people who have it are endorsing Musk’s repurposing of the Blue Check from “This…

The Musk stans in the greys keep telling me how wrong I am.  I really don’t understand the cult this guy seems to have.  

What really sticks out is, he’s got defenders! Loud ones! Strident ones! He could easily just bask in the worship of his acolytes but you can clearly tell that’s not enough for him. He wants everyone to know he is good and cool and funny.

“Almost” is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting there, lol.  I don’t disagree with you, yet I still find myself having absolutely no trouble not feeling sorry for Elon Musk.

His dad, from what I can gather, thinks Elon’s a bit of a dick. He’s not an easy child to love.

did you see that “prove I’m not an emerald mine heir” thing where apparently his dad was like “ummm”

Being born rich is amazing. The complete luxury to be a public buffoon and fail repeatedly, and have it hardly matter.

You’re wrong so often it must be a kink.

I’ve heard one say “He’s intentionally losing a crap pile of money right now to...” something, something.

Now imagine you are the richest person in the world and you are doing this?

Not as funny as watching an asshole lose more money then anyone ever has in the history of capitalism because he wanted to stick it to the “woke mob”

So are you intentionally misinterpreting what this is about in order to get in your pointless insult, or has your brain actually turned to mush from too much exposure to the right wing echo chamber?

I don’t know if it’s “complaining” so much as “not paying.”

Musk flushing $44 BILLION down the drain to try to buy street cred from the worst people alive (and fucking failing!) is the best argument I have ever seen for a massive, borderline punitive, wealth tax on billionaires. Who can seriously argue that the wealthy should have such unchecked power to dictate where society…

Elon Musk fan, sweating profusely and trembling: “No, you guys just don’t get it ... it actually makes ... see, in chess sometimes you need to ... he’s so ahead of the curve ...”

Image trying to make people like you by giving them free stuff, only for them to loudly tell everyone, they don’t want it, never asked for it and aren’t your friend...

There are few things in this world that I’m certain of, but one thing that I know for sure is that Norm Macdonald’s ghost wouldn’t pay for Twitter Blue. This subscription is clearly the work of an imposter ghost. I suspect the ghost of Frank Stallone, who is alive, yet remains the ghost of Frank Stallone.
