Let me know when the Official Monster Raving Loony Party has won all 435 seats and 6 delegates of Congress, all the governorships (especially including the ones not being contested this year), and the Plaid House (which is much more awesome than any white house.)
I voted. There were almost 60 choices on my ballot. California, I love democracy, but if we need to answer this many questions, maybe we should have elections more often?

According to what Elon said a week ago, Monday is the day his changes to Twitter were due. I am not paying the $8 per month. So, if I don't see you... thank you for twelve years of knowledge, laughter, and good times. See you elsewhere on the Internet!

Possibly the fanciest loco moco I've ever seen. At All Day Baby in East Hollywood, Los Angeles.

I have found my current spot in the Fediverse. If Twitter falls down, goes boom, you can also find me at [email protected]. That WILL be the place to follow me, unlike the oulipo account. (I miss the letter e too much!)

I have joined the Fediverse, temporarily, at [email protected]. That won't be my final resting spot. I would miss the letter e too much! Can anyone recommend a good server with a broad range of techies, leftists, and queer or furry folk?

Every conspiracy theory - that Paul Pelosi was friends with attacker; that a 3rd person let the police in; that attacker was let into home by Pelosi; attacker is liberal Dem - rebutted here in these DOJ charges. Maybe I am missing another conspiracy. justice.gov/opa/press-releas…

Here is my guess the future of Twitter. There are two broad ways to make money from a chat service: - Get money from the people using the service. - Sell advertising to the people using the service

I expect that regular people will see reduced features. For example, I expect that without paying or watching an advertisement, people will soon be limited in how many tweets they can make per day and/or how many tweets they can receive in a day.

That will dramatically lower Twitter's user base. Will Elon be able to recoup his investment? Who knows. But I still predict that Twitter will be a lot less pleasant for users who aren't sending Elon money.

This temper tantrum will *guarantee* that features break and that the people you want to get money from have a terrible experience.
Twitter is planning to start charging $20 per month for verification theverge.com/2022/10/30/2343…
