TFW you go to sleep in 2015 tweeting in Spanish and wake up in 2021 as an "Elon" account, complete with @ElonMusk's current (as of July 6, 2021) profile pic. #RepurposedAccounts #LifeComesAtYouFast

The recently awakened Elons are part of a larger network of 576 accounts created in May 2014. All accounts went dormant in late 2015, but some of them woke back up in 2021. Old tweets are almost all in Spanish, whereas new tweets are a mix of English, Indonesian, and Japanese.
The old Spanish tweets from these accounts are highly repetitive, with many tweets duplicated verbatim on dozens of accounts. Those of the accounts that are still dormant have similar names and tweet counts, and fewer than three likes (most have zero).
