Looks like he needs hair plugs for his face too...
That's the shittiest "beard" I've seen in a while
I think he's starting to look like Alex Jones
Holy shit, you’re right.
So which is the dog and which is the human?
Yes!
And also, somehow starting to look like Larry Ellison.

I was wondering when he grew a neckbeard. I guess he is just playing to his audience.
Dude is a man child. Everything he touches turns to shit.
According to The Intercept, Twitter automatically removes the tick when the profile picture of an account changes. I don't know why. The tick came back a little later.
This does not change anything you said at all.

Crazy for a self proclaimed "free speech absolutist" always being so anti free speech. Oh, sorry. He just means for himself.
Ah, good ol' Republican "free speech," AKA nobody should ever question my speech but everyone else should confine their speech to my personal comfort zone.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The move seemingly makes it harder for UAW to maximize reach for its posts on X, just as workers have begun striking, demanding better wages and other benefits.
UAW's negotiations also seek to expand benefits for union workers involved "in the production of electric vehicles and the batteries needed to power them," The Intercept reported, and those conversations could also impact Tesla operations.
Last year, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ordered Tesla to revise its policies "to make clear that it does not prohibit production associates from wearing black union shirts."
There was also tension earlier this year when Tesla Autopilot Buffalo-based workers tried to unionize, alleging that they were being treated "like robots" and pressured to skip bathroom breaks.
And most recently in April, the NLRB again ruled that Tesla violated labor laws when managers at an Orlando repair shop illegally silenced workers attempting to discuss pay and working conditions, Reuters reported.
In the moments after X reinstated UAW's verification, the union began posting in support of strikers in Ohio and Missouri, some of them chanting, "No justice, no jeeps!"
