“And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” he tweeted.

According to Rabbi Isaac Luria, the trees are resting places for souls; sparrows can see the soul's descent, explaining their joyous chirping. The Tree of Souls produces all the souls that have ever existed, or will ever exist. When the last soul descends, the world will come to an end.[2]

According to the Talmud, Yevamot 62a, the Messiah will not come until the Guf is emptied of all its souls. In keeping with other Jewish legends that envision souls as bird-like, the Guf is sometimes described as a columbarium, or birdhouse. The mystic significance of the Guf is that each person is important and has a unique role which only he or she, with his or her unique soul, can fulfill. Even a newborn baby brings the Messiah closer simply by being born.

Guf

So what will be the verb substitute for “tweeted”?

Xed?

Tweeting = Xing?

Odd.

“He’s not the genus everyone thought he was.”

Well, he is the richest man in the world, I’m not. So, I will take a wait and see approach. It actually might be interesting.

interesting it took so ‘long.’

i guess a lot of engineering fixing and prep had to be done before this simple change could take place.

What genus is he, if he's not Homo?

LOL, thanks for the chuckle. Elon is unique, that's all we know.

“they will turn the full resources of their cabal on Musk.
Today he’s a nuisance. But it won’t last.”

He has a big trump card in this regard. Two actually. The starlink network is already massively important and in 20 years will control global communication and much military stuff will be dependent on it.

The other is heavy lift capacity. No other person, company, or nation can come close to what Musk can put in space. Our military is also increasing dependent on his capabilities.

Neither of those are going away. They would have to be nationalized to get rid of Musk and then they would fall apart.

If he wishes,
He gets to destroy it.

And given his strategy of rolling in satellite internet, AI, and maybe a cell phone brand, it begins to make sense.

Does anyone today question the wisdom of Apple’s iPhone, iPad, and iCloud?
