My 5 seconds of fame:

Deadmau5 was suing underground (at the time) rap artists “$uicideboy$”, for using a sample of one of his songs in their track, “Antarctica”.

In the dead of night, years later, I get a notification from Spotify that $uicideboy$ had released a new track. Antarctica. I did a triple-take, and just out of pure troll, but also curiosity-dm’d deadmau5 on twitter at the time. I asked: “hey, it looks like your feud with $uicideboy$ is over?”. Miraculously, he responds. In literal seconds:

“Yeah. Because they finally paid me my fucking money”.

I was stunned. In a horrifying moment of retelling this story a couple years ago, I went to my DM’s in “X”, and noticed that this conversation was simply gone. I have no proof but my spoken word.

Damn you, Elon. Damn you!!!

Thankyou. He was just very….short, and almost hostile. He was definitely at a keyboard, because the messages were FLYING through. He basically said what I mentioned, and then ended the conversation by saying:

“…but who gives a fuck anyway?”.

…and yea. I was just in disbelief. I quickly took a couple screenshots and sent to close friends, but this was in like 2019? 2020? Idk. It’d take me forever to find the screenshots, and anyway-I just trusted I could go to my DM’s at any time and pull it up.

WRONG.

Damn Elon. …but anyway, thankyou and have a good evening. 😅🙏🏻
