Elon Musk runs six companies at once, which means he relies on a lot of other people to do things when he's not around.

Who are these people? How do they fit into the Elon Universe?

#SCOOP 🍨on @UAW talks w/@DavidWelch47
@KeithNaughton
The UAW sees a 30% pay raise (including COLA) as a magic number that could win ratification and give it a credible sales pitch to organize other non-union plants, like $TSLA #UAWStrike $GM $F $STLA

Happy #Barbie Day. If you haven't read it, here's our inside look on why this wild movie -- on track for possibly the biggest box-office opening this year -- got made.

@ShawnRobbinsWho @tgbuckley Thank you!

[Kelly Gilblom @KellyGilblom]

And another benefit: It might help Hollywood rethink its aversion to making tentpole films for women. An analysis from @ShawnRobbinsWho revealed only about 6% (!!) of all movies with a $100m budget have *ever* been directly targeted at, or reliant upon, women.

[Kelly Gilblom @KellyGilblom]

A year ago Mattel invited me to their headquarters in El Segundo to see their insane toy creation workshop – which fills a whole 196k square-foot warehouse – and learn about the #Barbie movie. It’s been a wild ride.

[Kelly Gilblom @KellyGilblom]

But hey, #Barbie looks like it will be huge. That sure helps. Mattel even allowed its own errors to become part of the story.
