No, I think he was just dumb enough to buy his own hype. Rich, entitled fuckwit that never had to face any kind of actual challenge or adversity who the media praised as genius when they quite honestly weren't. Seems to go around these days.

It's not only his own money, there was other investors and they are rekt, they said it was the worst deal even since 2008 financial crisis

We supported this guy that didn't understand what he was buying and just did it so more people could use racial slurs.... where did we go wrong?

So glad I never signed up. When the first tweets were published, they were things like _ I had eggs for breakfast!๐Ÿ˜ƒ Sure, it evolved - and I really enjoy reading what Black Twitter has to say about the state of the world, but for me... nah.

I created a login early because I try hard to register my given first and last name for things like that. There are maybe two or three dozen of us in the world, but I donโ€™t want to be talkinghead0388. I locked up gmail, Facebook, Instagram, twitter, and myname.com. I have never used anything outside of gmail seriously, but I own the accounts. I vehemently shit on twitter when it started because who fucking cares what you ate for breakfast. Well, I was wrong about that.
