@Cosmichomicide LOL--it's a foolproof plan for unlimited joy and eyeballs.
@Cosmichomicide Your periodic reminder that participation in #xitter is voluntary and you can get up from the chair at any time.
Well aware. I've ridden out a ton of platform demises. In some ways it's professional curiosity.
@Cosmichomicide Quite possibly in a long line of idiotic decisions, this tops the list....
@Cosmichomicide OH hell no
Couple that with them NOT banning people who harass and threaten minorities and it's a real fun time, especially for--say--black trans women.
@Cosmichomicide. Before I left I was in a group that were mainly attorneys and journalists and others folks who were kind and polite, even in disagreement. They maintained that little corner of sanity and etiquette by warning and then blocking anyone who couldn't behave themselves. I've often wondered how they're doing, and don't see how they won't be driven off by this move on Musk`s part
I have a few accounts that I check in on - David Simon, Grady Booch, Heather Thomas, Kevin Kruse, Ben Collins, Andres Guadamuz.
I presume they will gradually disappear, likely sooner than later (David Simon is only back due to the WGA strike - he left right after the election last fall).
@th3j35t3r, time for a recruitment drive. 😱
