Tesla and SpaceX CEO took a several-day hiatus from Twitter but how now returned in a series of tweets following his birthday celebrations.
Musk recently celebrated his 51st birthday on June 28, and coincidently the world's richest individual managed to pass a milestone number of Twitter followers on the same day - a nice little birthday present. Musk's official Twitter account reached 100 million followers on June 28, and has since climbed to 100.2 million followers, a gain of approximately 200,000 new followers in just four days.
Musk stopped posting on Twitter on June 22 and seemingly took several days to himself to enjoy his birthday and work on his myriad of other projects. He has now returned on June 2 by firstly posting a meme followed by a simple, "Feeling... perhaps... a little bored?"
This tweet could be seen as poking some fun at Twitter for being a more boring place without Musk's presence, and judging on the responses the Tesla CEO received, many people agreed that they were bored without Musk's entertaining and informative tweets. Thousands of individuals wished Musk a happy birthday and that he had a nice time during his break off the platform.
