Elon Musk

Great to see Papa Elon swooping in to save Twitter for us all.

Homegrove never forget Elon bought Tesla with money his family made with blood diamonds in apartheid South Africa. And their reaction to the end of apartheid was to flee.

Elon bought Tesla with money he’d accumulated first from starting and selling Zip2, then from starting and selling X.Com/Paypal. His father only gave him $28k for a minority share in the early-stage funding of Zip2 alongside funding from other angel investors.

Also, it was half an emerald mine in Zambia.

Elon Musk’s father also still lives in South Africa. Elon moved to Canada when he was University age to study at Uni because he had a Canadian passport from his mother.

But then wetwipes with an axe to grind don’t really care about facts.

Putting aside the fact that Elon’s money comes from a blood soaked gem mine, I would think/hope that any rational person would see the risk in having yet another form of communication being bought up by a billionaire. Almost every major news outlet it now owned by either a major corporation or billionaire. Applauding a social media outlet being controlled by a billionaire is blatantly ignorant, especially when the party in question is incapable of understanding that you can’t shave your fucking head after you’ve had a hair transplant.

Err, that’s kind of inherent in the very nature of a large and valuable company. Twitter also just used to be owned by another billionaire in Jack Dorsey.

Plus, one slight exception in the UK could be the Guardian in that it’s owned by a trust; albeit that’s still a very wealthy organisation with other financial investments, and that hasn’t stopped it being one of the shittest rags of all.

The best thing about The Guardian?

Jay Rayner.

Smallman1 no, I beg to differ. It’s Owen Jones.

Walking In The Air is one of my favourite Christmas songs I must say.

As long as he uses Twitter to pump crypto then all is fine, we are all going to die when Satan 2 launches anyway

Smallman1 mental image of you singing the chorus as you jump from a high bridge into a river.

Hello Jaded Clubbers!

I wanted to thank all of you for taking an interest in my various endeavors. As an immense fan of techno and house music, I have been acting as a follower of this forum for a great while now. During my time spent watching from afar, I have noticed that free speech is often silenced when certain members try to voice their opinions. As a result, I have decided to launch a bid for jaded-clubbers.com. My team has engaged with @mono-stereo, and an offer has been made. I hope that your board’s board looks favorably upon my generosity. It is my well informed opinion that all members should be allowed to talk about Arsenal football and the purveyance of lies as much as they wish, and it is not the place of bald Finns to silence such voices, no matter how much they disagree.

I look forward to posting along side many of you for years to come, as we continue to discuss the mind expanding medium of electronic dance music!

And I would personally like to thank @hugopal and @Hursty for being such truly valued members of the community. I hope that the three of us can enjoy a few Kentucky bourbons together at a DJ Sven Väth concert sometime soon.

Kind regards,
EM

Elon the spelling is not too bad, that immediately rules out over half the board. Also the US spelling of “endeavor” - so I’m guessing jonatton?

Cue Eastenders theme tune

I hope this means BF will be returning.

I think only three people read your posts, Hugo, and even then not very often. I’m one of them, sadly. Save the time and energy.

Hursty

Lol, someone has far too much time on their hands 😆

Elon

Hello @Hursty! Thank you for your observations. I would think it would be obvious to someone as astute as yourself, but reality is that I find myself with not nearly enough time on my hands. Attaining all of my goals leaves me to wonder where the day has gone. It is because of this that I am developing a device to add a 25th hour to the day. What a truly exciting possibility!

Hursty

Elon Congrats dude, you are definitely an enigma!
