For just $8 dollars a month, only 27 cents a day, you'll help rescue celebrities from @elonmusk.

Please don’t ignore this desperate plea for help

He's already had to backpedal on this, first by giving a few celebrities their checks back, now giving it back to them en masse.

It quickly became so dorky to buy one that Elon had to give them back to celebs to make it seem cool.

They say if you don't pay for a product, you're the product. This is still true with twitter, the users are the product -- Elon certainly hasn't and won't change that. But now some of them are actually dumb enough to pay for the "privilege" of being the product. Silly.

Anyone invested in all of this has had their brain rotted from too much time online. And that's a lot coming from my perpetually online butt.

It's doubtful it'll happen, but some people are discussing lawsuits by the celebs or even the US government itself. It's illegal to make it look like someone is endorsing your product when they're not. Which is exactly what those checks do.

Dr. Seuss figured this out back in 1953.

I do a volunteer gig for a radio station, doing all of their social media. I personally hope the Twitter chaos continues and more companies leave.

I see no company leaving, in fact, Twitter seems more alive than ever, it even helped me finding this forum!

If you do not see it then it's just because you're not looking
