I call out TED directly for lionizing Musk because I worked there and I was complicit in it. I helped script the social media videos of his four (four!) TED Talks during which he made ridiculous false claims of his "inventions." Remember his tunnels that would end traffic?

i don’t care if being unverified means no one will see my tweets. i tweet only for myself, my phd advisor who doesn’t have a twitter account but types “twitter kukukadoo” into google every day to find my tweets so she can email me her thoughts on them, and god

I’m really proud of you all for the chaos you’ve stirred up on this website. Its like a bunch of little Macaulay Culkins absolutely running amock, setting traps, ordering pizza on Musk’s credit card

When faced with someone of insurmountable wealth and power, the people have decided to go “L + ratio + dont care + didnt ask + cry about it + stay mad + get real + mald seethe + cope harder” and I think that’s beautiful

I saw a tweet last week that urged users to make Elon feel like he'd purchased a haunted house filled with millions of cockroaches and now I can't find it but I deeply love how many people have wholeheartedly committed to that project.

First the finance chiefs… and now the compliance chiefs. I'm honestly shocked at how quickly Musk is destroying Twitter as a functioning business.Pé🌻🐀 (@4everNeverTrump)Thu, 10 Nov 2022 15:23 GMT

I still see a lot of people assuming these layoffs are a money problem. It's not. These massive companies still have lots of money. They could pay you if they wanted to. It might be useful to learn about why they don't wanna pay people right now.

do you know what level of fuckery is required to get your CISO, chief privacy officer, and chief compliance officer to all resign at once? i suspect we’ll have a good idea of exactly what’s going down by EOD and it’s gonna be Bad.twitter.com/caseynewton/st…Post details
According to messages shared in Twitter Slack, Twitter’s CISO, chief privacy office, and chief compliance officer all resigned last night.

If you believe a group of workers shouldn't take strike action because they are vital to the running of the country then, by that same logic, you should support them when they demand better than real-terms pay cuts so they don't have to resort to strike action in the first place.

With a recent increase in the number of accounts suspended from the social media site, The Onion examines all the things that will get you permanently banned from Elon Musk’s Twitter. bit.ly/3UsAJOWThe Onion (@TheOnion)Thu, 10 Nov 2022 17:15 GMT
Any Twitter engineer being asked to certify compliance to a regulatory agency (such as the FTC) should seek independent (their own) legal advice before signing anything or making any statement to regulators.

probably my favorite bit of weirdness after all the twitter drama is people who are _still_ in twitter employees' @ replies asking to get verified

When people say ‘this upcoming economic downturn’ I can’t help but ask what people think has been going on for the past year at this point
Jason Warner (@jasoncwarner)Thu, 10 Nov 2022 19:35 GMT
The "return to office" mandate is likely an attempt to get more employees to quit so that he doesn't need to pay severance. It doesn't help productivity, profitability or morale.
never meet your idols (@Obersts001)Thu, 10 Nov 2022 15:52 GMT
So Musk sent his first Twitter email at 230 am, told his remaining ~4k staff they all must work in-office now full-time; the overall economic picture 'is dire;' that Twitter 'will not survive the upcoming economic downturn' unless the business becomes 50% subscription based...

Strong statement from FTC, following the security and privacy departures at Twitter: "We are tracking recent developments at Twitter with deep concern. No CEO or company is above the law, and companies must follow our consent decrees."

So to summarise. There are now two blue checkmarks. One always tells the truth. One always lies. One leads the way to the castle. One will send you to the bog of eternal stench
