“Next I’m buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in”; Elon Musk tweet goes viral

"Next I’m buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in"; Elon Musk tweet goes viral
Apr 28 2022 Share

Following his gargantuan purchase of media platform Twitter at $44 billion, Elon Musk continues to make international headlines with yet another puzzling Tweet.

Earlier today, the Tesla and SpaceX boss took to Twitter to write “Next I’m buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in”, leaving the world in a frenzy. Whilst nothing is off the table for the richest man in the world with a history of erratic behaviour, the Tweet is more likely to be a joke.

Nevertheless, thousands upon thousands of Twitter replies joined in on the fun, with one user in particular writing “I don’t know about you but… I’m liking the new ownership already @elonmusk.” Users on the other side of the coin said that such a move is ‘Kanye West level crazy’, criticising claims of such a purchase.

Musk had previously stated that twitter has “tremendous potential”, which he pledged to unlock, also promising to relax content restrictions and terminate fake accounts for good.

Do you think Elon could actually buy Coca-Cola?

Earlier today, it was reported that global mobility giant Uber plans to launch in Malta, with the company attempting to obtain its license amid a Mediterranean expansion.

Uber is an international staple in the ride-hailing market, also offering a food delivery service in the form of Uber Eats and bike & scooter services via Lime. Lime is a San Francisco based mobility company which runs electric scooters, bikes, pedal bikes, mopeds and car sharing systems around the world.

Most popularly known for their electric scooters, Lime Bikes, one cannot help but wonder if the service will enter Malta immediately upon Uber’s launch or come in later.

Back in August 2018, Neutron Holdings, Inc., operating under business name Lime, struck a deal with Uber to provide electric bikes for Uber’s large scale expansion of Uber Bikes. In May 2020, Lime acquired the Jump e-bike and scooter business from Uber, together with $170 billion in funding.

Would you like Lime to come to Malta?

Liverpool beat Villareal in semi-final first leg

Apr 27 2022 Share

Liverpool have beaten Spanish underdog Villareal, 2-0 in what was a close and exciting encounter held at Anfield. The Reds looked confident throughout the match unlike Villareal whose counter attacking tactics didn’t go to plan unfortunately for them. This comes after fellow English side Manchester City beat Real Madrid, 4-3 in what was a thrilling match.

 

The first half didn’t see any goals but did include various Liverpool chances being missed by their attacking trio of Sadio Mane, Mohammed Salah and January signing Luis Diaz.  Liverpool were totally in control of the possession stats whilst Villareal were trying to find them out on the counter, like they did to Bayern and Juventus.

The second half started perfectly for Liverpool when Jordan Henderson’s cross was tipped into the net by Villarreal keeper Gerónimo Rulli after it deflected off Pervis Estupiñán, who unfortunately for him got credited for the own goal. After the goal, Liverpool looked even more confident and looked eager to score more to kill the tie off early. That is exactly what happened only two minutes after the first goal, as Mohammed Salah found Sadio Mane in the opposition box to coolly double the lead for the Reds.

The game ended in a 2-0 win for Liverpool. They will now have to wait for the second leg this time in Spain, next Tuesday evening.
