Elon Musk has broken his streak of silence on Twitter, the social media platform he is buying.
Musk tweeted for the first time from his personal account on Friday, breaking a remarkable nine-day absence from Twitter, with a tribute to a popular YouTuber who died of cancer. He also shared two photos, including a throwback to his 40th birthday party weekend and a recent photo with Pope Francis and four of his sons.

Musk tweeted a tribute to the late YouTuber, saying: “Popular Minecraft YouTuber Technoblade with 12 billion subscribers recently passed away at the age of 23 due to cancer and this [me] realize that cancer is [an] an absurd piece of literal garbage and death, but also try to live your best life with people who know. They can die the next day and you’ll regret not doing things with them.” The tribute included a quote from Sonic the Hedgehog.

During an interview with The Independent, Riley said that she and Musk share “a very deep love and connection.” “He’s a great friend. He takes care of me. We’re in a happy place now where we’re good to each other, which is really nice. I have the greatest love for him,” she added.
Musk’s return to the platform comes as he has routinely tweeted over the past few weeks about his purchase of Twitter and his disagreement over alleged bots on their platform. He also tweeted about the Biden administration, Ukraine and his potential support for 2024 Republican nominee Ron DeSantis.
