If you, like me, just can’t look away from the trainwreck that is Elon Musk’s management of #Twitter, be sure to follow @ZoeSchiffer on the bird site.

These updates are absolutely unreal. #riptwitter
Tweets from @ZoeSchiffer read:
NEW: Email from Elon to the engineering team: "Anyone who can actually write software, please report to the 10th floor at 2pm today.

Tweets from @ZoeSchiffer:
NEW: In an email for remote Twitter engineers, Elon Musk says he wants to speak to people on video "only those who cannot physically get to Twitter HQ are excused") but "if possible, I would encourage you to fly to SF to present in person." He'll be at the office until midnight. 
I am having a difficult time believing this is real and I am looking at the emails.
