Here’s some more genius prognostication from 20,000 feet;
Regarding Elon’s “That’s what she said”
All I can think is back to our earlier discussion of how his mental / emotional maturity sure seems stuck in the early teens.
That’s bad in such a specific way that I find it hard to believe it’s not intentional. Genuine shitposters work very hard to come up with responses that stupid.
Deleted. I’m tired and cranky.
And it does not even make a lick of sense. At least when an emotionally stunted teenager says it, he usually does so in the correct context.
Ha-ha! That"s what she said!
Elmo is revoking “legacy” verified accounts on April 1st (because LOL APRIL FOOLS), meaning that after that date it will be completely safe to block anyone with a checkmark.
Also, from the article:
the email account for the Twitter press office now automatically sends out poo emojis in response to requests.
The arrogance of a truly major asshole combined with the maturity of a ten-year-old.
Things are going so well now that Twitter’s path to agile success may be bolstered even further when countries start banning it as toxic and useless.
I’m so tired that’s funny. So perhaps you can appreciate how tired I am.
I would never join a Club that would accept me!
When a teacher says it, however…
I went to the local middle school for a meeting last week. There was a bulletin board for Women’s History Month, full of quotes from famous, inspiring women.
You can guess the title on it.
I’m not sure whether to be impressed or dismayed at the choice. I don’t even know what to think.
That last sentence is the true sign o’ the times.
The Free Speech Absolutist has banned a Finnish defense expert for warning Russia not to invade. How does anybody take Musk seriously? Is Musk just pro-authoritarianism like his buddy Thiel, or does Putin have something on him?

I think the model to use to understand Musk’s attitude regarding Twitter is that he’s playing Sim-CEO. You know how after a while playing a sim you decide to say launch a Gozilla attack on your city or take away the ladder while one of your sims is swimming, just see what happens? That’s Musk’s view of Twitter. Lets replace our media department with a poop emoji and see what happens? When you have more money than god, you have to find new ways to amuse yourself and playing a 44 billion dollar computer game is as good a way as any.
You’ve actually watched me play Sim City and The Sims?!
What a horrible idea. What an asinine, moronic idea. I’ve been relying on verified accounts to curate my Twitter feed for years.
That’s the same thing as censorship.
Indeed. Instead of meaning “this is a notable individual who has proven they are who they say they are”, a blue check now means “this Sneetch has a star on their belly”.
Which once more feeds into my thesis that Elon Musk would be a better person if his dad had read some Dr. Seuss to him when he was 5.
Just a measly 1000 years to make his investment back.
You’re not looking at it from 20,000 feet.
