    Well, Elon's doing his best to dismantle Twitter, less than a month after he finalised its acquisition. It's his toy and his rules. If you don't play by them, you're out!
    So the guys and gals that really run the place (the workers) have given Mr. Musk the middle finger (a long pink stick of their own) and resigned en masse.
    You could say, he's thrown the baby out with the bathwater, or should that be "kitchen sink" water.
    Now there are safety issues and possibly the end of Twitter as we know it.
    Well that was an astute buy Mr. Musk. A few billion dollars (US$44 to be exact). Hah, pocket change to Elon.
    How will we fare without Twitter? I'm shattered!:1980_boogie_down:<party>

    It's a very strange self destruct. Having said that, despite having three Twitter accounts, I think my life would be enriched by Twitter's demise!!

    On the upside RTID, you'll have more time to concentrate on QPR's woes.

    Twitter is for twats.

    Musk is the biggest of them.
    A self righteous aerosol who treats people like absolute ****e. His time will come.

    Another Trump if you will.
    As you were ..

    Didley, don't hold back. :emoticon-0121-angry :emoticon-0136-giggl
    Getting yourself in a lather mate.
    Elon's not worth have a stroke over. So chill and enjoy the soap opera that is Twitter these days. Something to watch while QPR take a break.

    P.S. I notice that you referenced The Two Ronnies sketch Re: Ball or Aerosol? :emoticon-0140-rofl:
    Nice.

    It’s not immediately collapsing and no-one is irreplaceable in the workplace

    Just telling you what was reported on TV news, with a few additions of my own.
    Much like the Twitter posts by "Pepsi" about Coke being better and "Lily" about insulin now being free (which cost Lily billions on share market), as well as many other fake posts from "certified" posters.

    Astonishing how Twitter is still managing to function without a lot of people sat around nibbling on avocado toast and sitting idly in hammocks.
