So this reminds me a great deal of that time some 14ish years ago when I joined the #birdapp and struggled to understand what it was for and how it all worked. We made lists, I recall. We were put on other people’s lists. We posted links with text only and had conversations with strangers while we looked for our tribe. Guess that’s what we’re doing here, now, as well.

It’ll be just fine #birdapp

@Krassenstein I’m open to change. The #birdapp used to be a dream for me, a continuous enlightening feed of experts in their field: #journalists #scientists #activists #academics #climate #blacktwitter & so many more. Now #twitter is a mess, unverified folks falling away to invisibility, & random posts from parodies & imposters (kinda funny tho). I do like it here & appreciate all of you who are giving helpful advice to #twitterexiles #newbies #tooters

Things are going well over at the #BirdApp

@amandacsteele Busy chasing after #qwitterbirds.

One thing those of us who got here early in the #twitterexodus know that later adopters wouldn't: this place was built on a foundation of #furries.

Show respect to the furries who made this place. And for the Furries: your sweaty choices weird me out a bit, but I'm glad you get to be you here.

"The logic according to Elon on his Twitter Spaces conference yesterday is;
Having a credit/debit card and access to $8/month and a phone is enough to verify you as a human being. It's not meant to verify you as the real "HorrendousUsername420" but verify that you're not a bot"

one thing i do admire about right wingers, they know how to grift

Question: How the hell does a guy justify donating 129 million dollars into a SINGLE election? Love Of Democracy GTFO, Soros is an investor, he makes his money by outsmarting the next guy.

Then OK, what businesses does he own? Is he involved in businesses that make more money when the Democrats win? No. He's spread evenly across the market.

I think that what's going on here is he's washing money from someone (Putin? Xi Jinping? ...) who could never donate to US politics directly, so they do it through him.

Just watching "Purple Hearts" and the whole plot is based on a story of a girl who discovers she's diabetic and her insurance "doesn't cover #insulin to like, live", so she goes a friend who's a soldier and wants to marry him to get access to his military insurance, and thus to the life-saving drug.

I've said that already, and will say again, sometimes watching life in the US is like watching life on another planet. Or like watching life in socialist countries like #USSR or #Cuba or #Venezuela, which heroically struggle with absurd problems long solved elsewhere in cheap and simple ways.

Socialist countries heroically struggled with supplying food or such luxury goods as toilet paper to shops, US struggle with supplying a drug that is so cheap today, that it's being given away to diabetic people for free in most countries. Not only because that's the right thing to do, but also because it's the best and cheapest way to increase their productivity, if you are into utilitarian arguments.

However, when you stubbornly model your economy after an ideology, it leads to such absurds — and these absurds unfortunately lead to actual human tragedies...

lol, well done #verified prankster.

Now, we should actually make #insulin free.

This is too funny.

Sometimes, life immitates art. Teslaman has turned birdsite into a joke of a platform.
