The 'force Disney to recast her' thing is interesting.
'OK, she is rehired. She will continue to guest star as punch lady'
'How many episodes per season is that character slated to appear?'
'Approximately zero'

pretty amusing he went on a "look I'm not an anti semite" tour to Auschwitz like 1 week ago and literally the next thing he does is this

'Approximately zero' One episode, where she spends the entire episode trapped in a manure pit, before drowning.

Theres no definitive proof but there's suggestions that Elon essentially talks to himself through buner accounts on twitter. Posting an image of himself with his child only to go online lon another account and reply to it like "Your kids are so lucky to have you Elon, you're a great dad". Again, no proof but one account essentially exposing it has now been banned. Plus, you can absolutely see him doing it

Elon Musk is essentially what would happen if the average Redditor became a billionaire.

Why would you tweet back to yourself when you employ a whole team of sycophants for hire

Yes that's the one who made fun of him for switching accounts. He's remarkably thin skinned for someone that's such a huge advocate for free speech

Free speech that agrees with him is fine, free speech that doesn't is clearly trolling and banworthy.

Free speech that agrees with him is fine, free speech that doesn't is clearly trolling and banworthy. This is basically how all free-speech-warrior types operate. Freedom of speech is essential, until you say something I disagree with and you posess a platform to be heard. It's like the whole "stick to x/y/z" thing when a celeb expresses a political opinion, as if anyone believes they'd still be trying to shout them down if the were expressing opinions they agreed with instead.
I've always wanted someone to ask the tories who whinge about that sort of shit to their face on TV about that. "You're on record as being highly in favour of free speech, can you explain why you feel certain people should not be allowed to express their opinions and why those people are exclusively those who disagree with you and are able to be publicly visible when doing so?"

I really don't understand why people are still holding on out there. At this point you're essentially going for a beer with General Pinochet.

I finally binned it the other day. I assume the algorithm crashed briefly and it gave me a pure, unfiltered Twitter experience, dumping an unending stream of far right propaganda and fight videos on me.
And, as I was saying the other day, rather than just migrate to a slightly less racist flavour, I think im kind of done with it. If your choice is Dorsey, Musk or Zuckerberg, im choosing nothing.

The fun one at the moment is him hiding the ad notification (badly) on MrBeast videos (after he complained that Twitter reach and revenue was terrible for most people) which is in direct violation of several consumer protection laws.

Meh. Also, I don't think Dorsey has any connection to Bluesky any more.

He's on the Bluesky board of directors after he was invited to join, Jay Graber is the CEO. Graber isn't a tech bro like Musk and Zuckerburg either, she's a woman.

I think my lack of enthusiasm for any of the twitter clones is part of a wider 'I'm completely done with the social media (and, slightly more broadly, the internet)'. I don't have Facebook anymore, I'm finished with twitter, I check Instagram maybe once a week.... Ethically, I'm reluctant to participate anymore because almost all of the sites I visited have been absorbed and gutted by faceless mega corps or are toys for billionaire facists and, content wise, almost all of the sites I visited have been absorbed and gutted by faceless mega corps or toys for billionaire facists so anything on them is practically worthless.

Though it does have a pretty slick UI.
Does Bluesky have verified accounts? (as in proper ones, not just paid for ones)
