@LKNWoman Musk at Twitter is just like waking up to a new day with Trump. Each day is a some outrageous drama amid the chaos.
@dan_oglesby Hi Dan! There are a lot refugees here from Twitter like you and I. There isn't a big learning curve in CoSo, but a user's guide is @CoSoTips if you need it.

One of the many revelations of these texts is that
@TedCruz
was more directly involved in the plot to overthrow the constitution and the results of the 2020 election than previously known. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/feature/mark-meadows-exchanged-texts-with-34-members-of-congress-about-plans-to-overturn-the-2020-election

Some #tips:
The community firehouse is = to the Home newsfeed.
A like is the star under posts. Click it and it turns yellow. CoSo calls it 'favoriting' a status.
The equivalent of an RT is the rectangular box with arrows. Click it and it turns blue. You have just 'boosted' someone's post.
Everyone here is nice. No keyboard warriors. No bots. No ads. No 'sponsored' posts. Everyone is of the same mind.
The Jester keeps the lunatic fringe out. Follow him, @th3j35t3r
@JeSsA He is really a handsome boy. But, is he always so serious?
@okika_hilo That's funny!
yeah MTG really said that Show more

Elon Musk confirms that Twitter’s character limit will be raised from 280 to 4000 characters.
this is what 4000 characters looks like. no ty.
@Fatback65 The more he tweets, the more he sounds like Trump. Same type of personality. He gets pumped up by criticizing and disparaging others.

On Tuesday, President Joe Biden will sign legislation to protect gay unions. It's the latest piece of Biden's legacy on gay rights, which includes his unexpected endorsement of marriage equality on national television when he was vice president.
@KAnicholls You are right! It's impressive. Canadians are the best allies and friends! (Southern California here)

I shit you not. He actually said this. Out loud. On the internet. An hour ago.
@th3j35t3r If what you say is ironic, but you don't know it, is it still irony?
@estherschindler The article you posted from TechDirt about running socia media platform is so enlightening. Fascinating to learn so much about the pitfalls that are faced by these platforms.

"Look, I went through it myself. In the early days I insisted that sites shouldn’t do any moderation at all, including my own. But I learned." https://www.techdirt.com/2022/11/02/hey-elon-let-me-help-you-speed-run-the-content-moderation-learning-curve/

There we go. DeSantis' lawyers were forced by the court to define "woke." The lead lawyer described it as "The belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them."
So if anyone wants to stop anyone from being "woke" they want to perpetuate injustice in society
