This is a knock-out blow from Jess. If Braverman had any decency she’d resign in shame. She doesn’t. So she won’t.

What a result from Musk. What a performance! What a choice of target to attack; what a deservedly humiliting climbdown. And in between, such disregard for ordinary decency; such contempt for simple probity; such an utter want of tactical nous. Savor it all. The reek of desperation; the accent notes of spite and schoolyard bullying; the ground bass of self-important stupidity. And spare a thought for the supporting cast of hopeless sycophants, and highly-paid lawyers. Marvelous.

Hi again @elonmusk 👋
I hope you are well.
I’m fine too. I’m thankful for your interest in my health.
But since you mentioned it, I wanted to give you more info.
I have muscular dystrophy. It has many effects on my body.
Let me tell you what they are: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1633011448459964417

There are only two countries in the world where representatives of the state religion automatically get seats in Parliament. They are the UK and Iran. #BishopsOut http://change.org/BishopsOut

I needed some stock images of people working together so I used https://open.ai/images to generate some pictures.
The spec: "group of three people working in an office"
Bearded ladies, weird, three armed, demon eyed, freaks. Ho-hum.
I guess I won't be using AI to generate images for a while yet.

I despair of the direction this country is travelling. We need a change

Ultimately, Trade Unions work and that is exactly why the Tories are going after them.

Braverman and Zahawi should both be sacked TODAY.
Retweet if you agree.

He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software and Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit anyone's ever said, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.

The students in my upper-level electrodynamics course are taking their final exam right now, which always reminds me of the time I told my students they could bring a formula sheet to the final exam as long as it was on one side of a piece of paper.

This is going to end with “Twitter.com” redirecting to a mediocre Etsy store selling Tesla memorabilia.

IMPORTANT: @elonmusk's new policy preventing linking to competitors is in DIRECT VIOLATION of European Union rules.
Penalty can be a fine of up to 20% of Twitter's annual revenue

No, skepticism of crypto doesn't "stem from lack of understanding".
Skepticism of crypto stems from it being an endless barrage of fraud, scams and the worst of human greed and criminality.
