Content

We're joined by New York Times tech writer Mike Isaac, who is also the author of Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber .

Mike has been covering our friend Elon for a bit, and he talks to us about the "Twitter Files" that were released at the tail end of 2022, and what Elon's role in handing internal documents to substack writers suggests about his media strategy. We also talk about how Elon's management of twitter is tied into his other business ventures, and that while he might have been good at spinning all the plates before, the reckoning of tech giants might mean the jig is up.

Okay two ideas: 10k bullet journal with a space on each page for a tweet and 10k daily calendars with a daily post in 3 flavors: weird twitter, posting disease and goblin mode. Edit: the space for the tweet is there so you can write your tweet down and not post it.

A sudden absence of bees

Maybe a sticker sheet where you can compose your tweet and doodle a user icon and stick it on a bathroom wall for the real sickos

Re: your mention of the CIA in this episode, I’ve wondered if the likes of SB-F & the rest of the FTX shitheads were evidence of increasing levels of sociopathy among American failchildren; but I concluded that a generation or two ago, the SB-Fs were probably quietly joining the CIA and running secret genocides in client states instead of playing with magic internet money in the open
