The internet reckons it has found Twitter boss Elon Musk's alternative account, and if that's the case, then things are pretty weird.
You can see all of the tweets from his alt account here:
Twitter hasn't exactly been the most stable of places since Musk took over last year, what with him firing loads of staff (including ones who slept in the office to meet his deadlines), and having plenty more walk outs following an ultimatum.

Musk also insulted and then had to apologise to a disabled employee, who HR couldn't tell still worked for Twitter or not.
Then there's Twitter's value dropping by around half since his takeover as plenty of advertisers jumped ship.
Oh, and there's more. How could we forget antics like replacing the Twitter bird with the dog from the Doge memes, leading people to wonder 'what the f**k are you even doing with Twitter at this point'.

On top of that, there's the whole recent fiasco about scrapping almost everyone's blue ticks, except for the people subscribed to Twitter Blue, turning what used to be a mark of authenticity into a badge signifying that you're paying for a site that's free.
Only then some celebrities were still getting blue ticks for free, despite not paying or wanting them, and then thousands more of the most followed accounts on the site suddenly got their blue ticks back - despite not paying Musk anything.
Now we're through with all of that context, there appears to be another thing to add to the proverbial pile, and that's Elon Musk's alleged secret account where he supposedly pretends to be his two-year-old son.

Twitter users were first alerted to the possibility of the account existing when Musk was tweeting about how content creators could enable subscriptions.
Musk was showing that he was making $120,000 a month from accounts that were paying extra to subscribe to him.
However, people noticed that in the corner of his profile there was another picture denoting another account he could switch to.

Internet sleuths tracked down this account and discovered that it was one @ErmnMusk, a profile created in November 2022, which appears to be claiming that they're Musk's child, X AE A-XII.
The account seems pretty eloquent for a two-year-old child, and it also has a habit of interacting with posts on topics that Musk himself has an interest in, such as cryptocurrency and Tesla cars.
The alleged secret account has also been asking people some pretty weird things, asking one person 'do you like Japanese girls?', while telling another user they wished they were old enough to go to nightclubs.
It's also responded to a post from Musk where the Twitter boss mocked up a meme of a Pornhub video captioned, 'man f**ks 5 million people at once', asking 'is this a real peon video?'.

While the account has not been confirmed as belonging to Musk, plenty believe it's his secret account, and they've been disturbed at the prospect that the Twitter boss might roleplay as his young child on the site.
One said it was 'disturbing' while another said it would be 'so creepy' if it turned out that Musk really was behind the account and using his child's details.

Someone else said it was 'f**king weird and concerning' that a 51-year-old man might be doing this.
UNILAD has contacted Twitter for comment and of course received their typical response of sending us a 'poop' emoji, we will add a proper response if we receive one.
