Musk’s repeated outbursts against advertisers have dried up the main source of revenue for the loss-making company formerly known as Twitter. A recent decision to sue them for heeding his own advice to not buy ads on the platform hasn’t helped. At some point, he will have to provide a fresh infusion of cash to salvage his $44 billion takeover.

          I thought that actually was the joke of this stunt, and he was being sarcastic. Was that not it?

            I think it was originally supposed to be “let that sink in” so they let it in.

            But, yeah unless there’s some kind of 5D chess that I’m not seeing, he is sinking it.

        It might’ve been funny if he was remotely likable. Turns out that humor depends highly on not being an asshole.

        Look at his smile, he’s so proud. As if he just invented the concept of the pun. “You get it guys? Sink in, but it also means, like, a sink you can wash your hands in? So funny. Hysterical. Guys, please laugh.”
