    Also after Ye posted a most unflattering picture of Elmo.

    I'm too lazy to look up which one came before, but my guess would be he lost interest when Elmo got him his Twitter back. Which he then took away again, so it wouldn't surprise me if in a week the Parler deal is back on.

    Elmo might want to delete old Twitter accounts because there's some "prior art" he wants ridden from the internet.

    Twitter was far from perfect before Elmo happened to it but it’s a total shitshow now!
  • 2022 December 19, Paul Hudson (@twostraws@mastodon.social), Mastodon[5]:
    Elmo is pleased to announce the latest Twitter feature: full self-owning! And all Twitter Blue subscribers already have it enabled ✨

    Over at Twitter aka Elmo's Shithole, Elon Musk is now reducing the effectiveness of blocking so you'll be forced to see his Nazi pals' tweets in your feed.

    Elmo tells me in order to validate me on Twitter, he ABSOLUTELY MUST have my phone number, and I call BS on that!

    Elmo's Twitter timeline is like a comedy show where all the comics are either 3rd rate conservative media grifters like Steve Crowder, soulless Wall Street goons, Sil-valley Muskrat stans, or celebrity half-wit gargoyles who just want to be seen looking like besties with the Mars guy. It's gruesome.

    Looks like Elmo broke #Twitter again.

    Elmo tried to add a tweet counter and crashed the whole site world wide. What a complete dingbat.

    It is certainly conceivable that Elmo’s ragtag of leftover desperate engineers put out a feature without properly testing it. 😂

    I don't think it matters. If Elmo doesn't like your app, you're out. But it seems like he's now distracted by his engagement numbers, so hopefully he'll leave the API alone.

    But at the end of the day Elmo's just a spoiled wealthy man-child with zero social skills who is protected by lawyers who want to milk him for their livings for as long as they can.

    Incredible how low Twitter has sunk since Elmo fired the grownups.
  • 2023 March 25, Comfortably Numb (@ygalanter@hachyderm.io), Mastodon[15]:
    Once again Elmo is shooting himself in the dick. He must be a masochist.
  • 2023 March 25, c3141mtd (@c3141mtd@mastodon.social), Mastodon[16]:
    Bots aren't ruining Twitter, Elmo is. The reason you see trash is because Elmo fired all of the moderators.

    Absolutely blows me away Elmo is so clueless.

    Hope I live long enough to watch Elmo have a stoke, shit himself, and die on live TV as he's getting onto one of his rockets.

    It's 2023 and I still feel the need to post this occasionally.

    Also, fuck Elmo for being the asshole that he is.
