Day

Sorry I haven't been following the topic that closely, which is why I was interested in the context. The context is needed as I could easily throw out there the interview with the WSJ 12 years ago which claimed in 10 years he would put a man on Mars, I'm sure some doubted him on that at the time which they were proven correct. You will probably call that pettiness, yet I'll be honest, prior to his Twitter takeover I knew very little about the bloke, it's only since the Twitter takeover and the awful awful rebrand to X, ruined the verification system even more, messed up the algorithm to push his own views and businesses have I been paying attention. The more I see, the more of an oddball he becomes. You obviously wouldn't agree, respect your opinion, I just wish he would sell up and bugger off back to his cars and rockets and X was reverted back to it's former glory as I'm social media homeless now and it's super frustrating.

Just out of interest, proved everyone wrong in what way exactly?

So what, appears to be the default response to anything Elon does and can largely get away with saying and doing anything by his following. The Teflon Don. I appreciate the effort to unravel the thoughts of Elon, however, you could be either spot on or a million miles off depending on the day of the week. Also it delves deep inside a subject which will take this topic down a path which isn’t really suitable for this forum.

If that happens. I’m done with them. It’s been rough as it is with Pickett, Rudolph and Trubisky, if we go lower than that with Cousins. I will boycott the game.

Can I ask you what your thoughts are with Elon agreeing that there is a deep state turning kids into LGBTQ+ for presidential election votes?

If valuing the lives of children makes me an old fart so be it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackout_challenge

You think it’s ok that kids are setting other gullible kids challenges to eat wash tablets, or how to self harm videos? It’s a platform that has caused to many deaths already and needs to be wiped off the internet for good

We’ve reached the point where they can’t tinker with the offside rule anymore, so had to find something else to change which keeps them all in cushty jobs.

Not a surprise you love a pile on.

What’s the username? It’s possible they have closed their account, or protected their account so you have to request to follow and see their content. Or now if it’s a popular account, they would have the opportunity to stick content behind a paywall.

Twitter, probably the best of the bad bunch still for the latest news and football. Facebook, the family zone where you get nothing but memories being shared or competitions entered. Snapchat, for single teenagers and a place for OnlyFans content creators to avoid the tax man. Instagram, images and videos, been ruined by turning it into a shopping site where you follow content creators, not just seeing what your mates are up to. TikTok, attention seekers and gullible kids taking on life endangering challengers. The worst of the lot. Threads, had promise to be the new Twitter, launched with missing key features and limited countries, subsequent releases over what the site is for shows it’s just another follow these content creators.

He’s taming the bots. I’ve had to reopen an X account just to follow the Derby accounts. Disappointingly Threads doesn’t appear to appeal to the football outlets. Anyhow, I’ve not made a single post, liked a post, reposted a post. Nothing. Just followed 55 accounts. If I have this many bots already, I think it tells you a lot about how many followers Elon really has.

Imagine a football Hunger Games. Send them in wearing full kit and nothing but bare fists.

Been a few decades since you were at school!

We’re over here deducting penalties from goal tally’s, whilst over in Leeds they are rocking up at players houses giving them abuse when they miss a penalty. In all seriousness, his behaviour on the pitch makes him a dislike-able character, however rocking up to his house is as you say disgraceful, even more so when it’s your own player! Nothing Leeds fans do overly surprises me. You can screenshot this and share it with your Leeds mates on X @DarkFruitsRam7, I’m sure they will defend the behaviour as perfectly reasonable for anyone that misses a penalty. Imagine the pressure that puts on the player taking them. Idiots.

How’s the hangover?

Less than ideal this extra time with a big game on Saturday v Newcastle.

Captain Jason Knight

No need to bash him!

Vote for our boy, James Collins. Deserves it. https://www.thepfa.com/fpotm/league-one

The correct answer is obviously James Collins v Cheltenham Town, I'm happy to hear any counter arguments for the other goals though, bring em on.

Could be worse, could have been Piers Morgan teasing 30 second clips for a week before showing the full interview, which is then split into 2 parts of nothing more but shouting over each other.

Still not seeing the power, I mean Putin has spoke loads on the Ukraine war, all been reported in western media. The only difference here is a western journalist having the opportunity to ask questions, which will have been agreed prior to the interview, all leading to the same things being said. It's a scoop for sure, in the sense that it will bring in a shed load of views, but I doubt it's going to cause the masses switching to support Putin

Is he that powerful? I mean he has money, a large social media platform and his own cult following yet the only real power he has is controlling what people see. Even then it's limited to the algorithm feed and search pages. I'm sure the US government is watching closely and can rein him in at any point. Can see Europe blocking X soon as well if things continue.
