In a Twitter full of George Takeis, be a William Shatner.
Seriously.
We’ve lost count of the number of ‘entertainers’ aka Hollywood types who have lost their freakin’ minds over Twitter accepting Elon Musk’s offer to buy them. But not William Shatner.
Granted, he’s not a thin-skinned, emotional harpy looking for verification and vindication on Twitter for his biased or sad narrative …
His response was perfect:
BTW, since it seems to be the latest “thing” on here. I’m stating that I’m staying on Twitter. Besides I think @elonmusk is adorbs. Also, full disclosure: I’m trying to pitch Elon to hire me as face of Twitter. #dumpthebird 😉😏

You know, that could work.

Actually, that hashtag works for many reasons but we digress.
Not a Tribble? pic.twitter.com/geX0POhD6j

A Twitter Tribble.
Hrm.
There could be potential here. Maybe. The alliteration itself works very well.
INSTEAD OF A BLUE CHECK, VERIFIED GET A

OMG MAKE THIS HAPPEN. NOW THIS EDITOR REALLY WANTS ONE!
It did just occur to me that your buddy George might go apoplectic if this were to happen…

As we said above, be a Shatner, not a Takei.
He totally should.

He could play Spock in a Star Trek remake

Elon would make a GREAT Spock.
Ask him to buy the @StarTrek franchise, fire the top folks that have destroyed it. Bring in @SethMacFarlane to rebuild it. pic.twitter.com/P1JtVosYuP

Maybe another chance at space too?

Elon Musk gives me a good reason to stay on Twitter, actually.
I just hope he finalizes the deal so it's official.
