Get this – Elon Musk bought Twitter, thinking he could make it better. But let’s be real, the joke’s on him because the only thing he’s made better is our ability to find better social media platforms to use. Musk has gone and ruined the entire site, and not even his rocket science can fix it now. In fact, he’s done such an incredible job at breaking it that the company is worth less than half of what he originally paid for it. Good going, Musky.

Remember the days when Twitter was THE go-to spot for breaking news and juicy commentary? Yeah, that’s long gone. Now, everyone’s deserting the sinking ship, and even the advertisers are jumping ship. Musk has nearly managed to single-handedly ruin the most consequential place online. Sorry, Elon, you can stick to sending your car to space, but let’s leave the social media biz to the professionals, shall we?

Gone are the days where Twitter was the arbiter of what was culturally relevant. Nowadays, we don’t even bat an eye when something big is going down on Twitter. And let’s be honest, relevance is difficult to measure, but it’s easy to feel when it’s gone, like our excitement for a first date that turns out to be a total snooze-fest. But hey, at least Twitter can still be the place to catch a glimpse of Elon’s new hairline. #BaldIsBeautiful, right?

In short, it’s official – Twitter has hit rock bottom. And who’s to thank for that? Elon “the destroyer” Musk. So, pour one out for our fallen soldier, because this social media platform is D.O.A. Rest in peace, Twitter. It was good while it lasted.
