Nitpick: Kaye.
My grandmother went to high school with Danny Kaye. He was a couple of years older so he probably didn’t know her, but she knew him, because “Everybody knew Danny Kaminsky. He was the funniest kid in school.”
That’s cool! And I have no doubt he was the funniest kid in her school. He just seems to have a natural talent for comedy.
The guest host on the daily show last night had an entire segment on leaving Twitter. And then he did it. A little theatrical for me, but I liked the idea. [Jon Stewart would have nailed it]
Hassan Minaj? I watched his first night and thought he was a lot more clumsy than I expected, as he’d actually worked on The Daily Show. Surprisingly, the guest host who made me laugh the most so far was Chelsea Handler. Generally, I’m not a fan of hers.
Yes, he was okay. No major complaitns. I do like that he took on “us” for not quitting and saying things like the whole “discourse” and “town square” defense of Twitter is pure bunk.
Here’s an article about it
I should quit Twitter. I never use the damn thing anyway.
WSOAIT?
Better to just leave your account open and not use it. Let Elon wallow in the fantasy of monetizing you.
Agile alerts!
I think we need something like a swear jar for “agile” jokes now.
Wonders if agile will be a future wordle…
Musk refused to pay AWS bills until Amazon was like, fine, we just won’t advertise on Twitter until you do.
I think it would have been more fun (and vastly more persuasive) if AWS just switched off all of Twitter’s virts.
AWS: Nice soivice you had dere Elmo. Shame something happened to it. Pay up today or you’ll never see it alive again.
Hmm, well then I guess I’ve been an activist for a while now.
Isn’t that how most people use twitter? Check the 4-12 journalists/whatever you follow, sometimes, if you think of it at all?
OK, maybe just me.
An inactivist?
I never tweet and only occasionally retweet or like a post. I use Twitter mainly to follow a handful of content creators I enjoy and people who post politics news. I have Elmo blocked, I block all sponsors or anyone with a gold checkmark, as well as anyone who paid for a blue checkmark.
I exclusively use the site in a way that costs Elmo money.
Also, remember when last week he said that this week Twitter’s algorithm would be open source. It is almost like Musk lies a lot.
Agile truth telling!
Elmo didn’t become one of the richest people in the world by sharing anything!
