I am genuinely curious. What's the role of the new CEO if this turd keeps doing everything he can to burn this ish to the ground?
Ever heard of the glass cliff? You might even see a name or two on that list that you recognize.
Yup, I remember the absolute outrage when Ellen Pao became CEO of reddit, though it is nice at least to finally see her vindicated on there now. I hadn't heard of the glass cliff until long after she left, but people have been referencing it left and right on reddit recently. Turns out, Ellen Pao wasn't the problem...
Yeah that's crazy, I was furious when they fired Victoria back in the day. It's nice to see that Alexis Ohanian is the one who deserves the blame for that massive fuckup. Man that gives me a pang of nostalgia for the old days of reddit though. Interesting that the Wiki article points to Obama's presidency and the 08 financial collapse as a "glass cliff" event.
Remember this?
-( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)╯╲___卐卐卐卐 Don't mind me just taking Ellen Pao for a walk
She straight up admitted that she was essentially a sock puppet CEO and would offer no friction to anything Musk wanted.
Musk is a manchild who can't handle being told "no", so that's a given.
But it's smart of her to put that out in advance. It informs Musk that she will stay out of his way, and she doesn't have to take the blame for idiotic decisions made by him.
He’s the child of an emerald mine owner. Do people think that men like that choose wives based on how good a mother they’ll be? Doubt.
Gotta have someone to push off the glass cliff
Thanks for sharing, I hadn’t heard of that expression or phenomenon.
I think it’s called a ”Fucker-Upper“
Someone needs to make this Musk's official title. Chief-Fuck-Upper. I also heard Chief-Twit circling around.
Can we perhaps add a list of notable titles to his Wikipedia entry?
"CFU of Twitter" does have a nice ring to it
Then Spez could be CFU of Reddit. I kinda miss Ellen Pao. And Chooter.
Edit: A word.
Both Musk and Huffman seem to think the E in CEO stands for “Enshittification.”
Edit - typo
