The phrasing is misleading. It's $20 per pill for elon's boosted package

This is obvious. This is clear as day. This means you are dealing with a highly aggrieved maniac who thinks the height of humor is an epic bacon meme or a joke about pronouns. This is the pictorial equivalent of buying a ticket to see Ricky Gervais and dutifully clapping like a trained seal. Nobody who has sent this emoji has actually been laughing while they hit send, merely staring blankly at a screen, idly wondering if they should send a third follow-up text to their ex.

It also happens to be one of Elon Musk’s most-used emojis on Twitter. Indeed, between Aug. 1 and Nov. 11, he tweeted it out 98 times.

Also saw the classic "Hackers" come by but they deleted that account after 18 hours. This one has been up for about 15 so I expect the mods to delete it soon (It's the movie "Need for Speed", for those reading this post after the account gets suspended)

Namaste. This is the only way I wish to consume media from now on.

Extra gross considering it's a blurry distorted picture of her, so he probably thinks this about some women he works with and is projecting it on this blurry image.

Yeah, I definitely don't think Twitter is gonna die from a mass exodus unless it literally breaks. Like a 2 days downtime or something might kill it, but all these people threatening to jump to other sites are basically gonna go the same way as chuds threatening an exodus to Truth Social or it's predecessors.

It really is bizarre how much conservatives get hyped at the idea of a 60 hour work week. Like even if you assume their premise that a lot of employees of twitter were doing barely anything and getting paid for 4 hours a week, great benefits and free pumpkin spice lattes or whatever went on there in the fantasy - who gives a poo poo?

It’ll be like MySpace. Twitter will exist until someone offers a more attractive alternative. I don’t think Mastodon is the answer without a massive redesign but you’d be crazy to think that there aren’t a ton of people out there right now trying to figure out what the next big thing will be.

Most Americans view work not as necessity to create products or enrich our society, but develop the character and souls of hopeless peasants born with original sin. No matter what workers are doing or how little it actually benefits the world, it is for the spiritual good of the nation that their hands are busy so that they aren't distracted by prideful self worship and developing a life outside of your job.
