Tesla CEO Elon Musk loves Twitter (see: this 2017 tweet) and the freedom to post all the random things he wants. He even recently took his Twitter devotion to trial — and won.

But instead of looking at his most polarizing, news-breaking, and market-shifting posts, let's take a look at the other stuff on Musk's 2019 Twitter — the year where it got weird. Like really weird.

The self-proclaimed meme enthusiast isn't afraid to throw some of his own favorites into the mix. Other times, he responds or initiates conversations with non sequiturs or loosely related images and jokes. You never know what you're gonna get. The billionaire CEO will go through more "productive" spurts, retweeting his companies' official posts, or getting down to business about Tesla feature requests, or SpaceX materials and launch plans. But then, it's right back to random.

When Musk gives in to the bizarre and quirky, his timeline is either intolerable or ingenious. It's in the eye of the beholder, as with most things Musk.

With a few days left in the year, Musk still has enough quality Twitter time to keep everyone scratching their heads. But, hey, we're all just absolute units, after all.
