It's been a weird week for Twitter. Elon Musk,???? ????? ??? ?????? now officially at the helm of the social platform, carried out mass layoffs that will forever change the site.

Point blank: Twitter will never be the same. Not only has Musk has promised changes that will upend the way it operates — paywalled video, verification purchases, etc. — but now the company is a shell of its former self. Whatever Twitter was (good and bad) cannot survive.

Anyway. For now we have some good tweets during Twitter's weirdest, worst week. These tweets include some good ones from former Twitter employees, because through it all, they kept posting memes. Just as Twitter should be.
