"I think we can all agree Elon isn't serious and it's time to move on. I offered a real date," wrote Zuckerberg on Threads. "Elon won't confirm a date, then says he needs surgery, and now asks to do a practice round in my backyard instead. If Elon ever gets serious about a real date and official event, he knows how to reach me."
