You might not guess it from Twitter these days, but Elon Musk runs three companies. SpaceX is attempting to colonize Mars. The Boring Company aims to revolutionize subterranean travel. Tesla, after missing multiple deadlines, is trying to mass-produce enough Model 3s before it needs to ask Wall Street for more cash.

Amid all this, Musk’s Twitter account this month has descended into a blizzard of replies, accusations and counter-accusations against a panoply of targets. The activity is unlike anything coming from his handle since at least 2015. Quartz analyzed every tweet for the last three years to see what’s changed. In short: a lot. Over the last two months, Musk’s tweeting has quadrupled, surging to almost 400 this May. Prior to this month, his average tweets per month was 88 going back to September 2015 (median 84). Something is clearly different, and it’s not just the sheer number of tweets.
