Welcome to Elon Musk's Twitter.

The billionaire's bid to purchase the social platform actually, finally, really went through after a long, dramatic saga. So, uh, what now? Honestly who knows, but Musk has promised to potentially fire a bunch of people and to basically do customer support for a right-wing troll. Not exactly normal times for Twitter.

For now, we've collected the absolute best and funniest tweets of the week, like we always do. Because who knows what the future holds.

5. Morning people need to be controlled and watched, not empowered.

6. If I were a bird, then I would not be in the state of Ohio for a significant period of time. Simple as that.
