BERLIN, GERMANY DECEMBER 01: SpaceX owner and Tesla CEO Elon Musk poses on the red carpet of the Axel Springer Award 2020 on December 01, 2020 in Berlin, Germany.

On Friday evening, July 1, the Tesla billionaire made his first appearance on the social media platform he has been attempting to acquire for $44 billion since June 21.

He tweeted a photo featuring his four sons meeting Pope Francis, a tribute to the passing of a popular Minecraft YouTuber called "Technoblade", and a look back at his 40th birthday weekend.

Tribute to Technoblade

Minecraft YouTuber Technoblade passed away at the age of 23 from cancer, according to a heartfelt farewell video shared on his YouTube channel by his family.

His father referred to him in the "so long nerds" video as "the most amazing kid anyone could possibly ask for." The video was shared with his 12 million followers.

Musk joined Technoblade's fans and other public figures in paying tribute to the deceased YouTuber. His post reads,

"Popular Minecraft YouTuber Technoblade with 12 Billion subscribers recently passed away at the age of 23 due to cancer, and this made me realize that cancer is an absurd piece of literal garbage and death, but also try to live your best life with people who know. They could die the following day, and you would regret not doing things with them."

His tribute was posted with Sonic the Hedgehog's photo and a quote from the animated videogame movie Wreck It Ralph, with a caption that says, "Wise words from SJM."

Picture With Pope Francis

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO, together with his kids - Griffin, Damian, Kai, and Saxon, had the photo opportunity with none other than the Bishop of Rome and the Head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis.

He also also posted a rather cryptic tweet that says, "Feeling ... perhaps ... a little bored?Feeling ... perhaps ... a little bored?"

The billionaire also posted a casual throwback photo of when he and his ex-wife Talulah Riley were still together. The tweet's caption reads, "Venice, a site of Great Remembrance."

Why Was Musk Inactive for 9 Days?

Musk's last tweet was posted on June 21, which was a reply to a dispute between SpaceX and FCC on the space internet project Starlink.

On June 22, the following day, Mr. Musk liked a lot of posts. Some of them were regarding his move to acquire ownership of Twitter.

Musk, however, has not published anything on the platform since that day, which was exactly one week ago, and until now, he has not explained his inactivity.
