Okay, yeah, that's pretty hosed up.

I'm trying to think if there's anything from any other accounts or threads that I want to save for if/when they get taken down too, but I'm fortunate in that all I can think of are some art resources. As much as I joke around about dumb Twitter decisions, it sucks that people are going to lose mementos of dead loved ones.

Save and backup everything, never trust a site to keep all your sentimental photos.

If this teaches people the (hard) lesson not to trust big tech, or indeed any company, to “do the right thing”, that would be a silver lining.

Just wait till it decentralizes further and by 2030 were back to dialing up into bbs.

Actually yeah probably better still.

edit: I wonder how a smart phone would even handle a bbs.

So his role is doing the stuff he already focuses on, and there’s no chance he will take direction from the ceo. How many Scaramucci’s will the new ceo last?

Maybe he picked a sycophantic elon boot kisser, so they will be ceo in name only with him still making all the calls.

You'd have to be as dumb as Elno to take that job, so if this is real I fully expect the dumbest outcome possible: either Elon does a lovely "I now identify as female :smuggo:" thing or it's going to be some dimwit like Loomer or Marge Taylor Greene.

It'd probably never happen because they have better things to do, but I'd love to see how Elon would react if the NPR account just started tweeting a single period every 29 days.

Hey poo poo, even if it goes bankruptcy CEO always make sure they get paid. I mean technically it's just a high paying job with zero stress, cos like how are you going to gently caress up twitter even worse than it is. Just sit back relax, take the paycheck, and let everyone rightfully blame musk when everything continues to go to poo poo. Honestly it's sort of a dream job.

8am daily standup call with Elon Musk

quote:

Fiorina is anti-abortion.[272] She expressed support for legislation to ban abortions 20 weeks after fertilization, with an exception for cases of rape, incest, or danger to the life of the mother.[273] In 2010, she said that Roe v. Wade was settled law, but later reversed that position.[274] Fiorina supports overturning Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion in the United States, leaving it to the states.
