During the Twitter takeover drama, Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted a cartoon of himself as a bluebird rescuer, which is Twitter’s official mascot.
In response to Musk’s tweet, Dogecoin creator Billy Markus said, “Despite all my rage, I am still just a bird in a cage.” A Chinese artist created the cartoon for the first time on April 15. “You are free to fly,” the artist tweeted as he posted the design.

Musk’s latest tweet comes amid a slew of other concerns about his Twitter takeover. On May 13, the world’s richest man announced that his deal to purchase the microblogging site had been put on hold for the time being. According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the deal has indeed been put on hold while specifics supporting the figure that spam/fake accounts account for less than 5% of users are gathered.
“I’m worried that Twitter has a disincentive to eliminate spam, as it affects perceived daily users,” Musk, who purchased Twitter for $44 billion on April 25, wrote in a recent comment to a Twitter user.
Following Musk’s announcement that the transaction has been halted, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal made a comment on how spam diminishes real people’s experience on the microblogging network. He claimed that their actual internal estimates for spam accounts for the previous four quarters had all been well below 5%. This precise estimation, according to Agrawal, cannot be done externally.
A day later, the world’s richest man stated that his offer was conditional on Twitter’s SEC filings being accurate.
