If you ask nicely, and if you pretend you're just having fun with Art -- an AI Bot will provide you the blueprints for building your own Spaceship!
Arrakis teaches the attitude of the knife — chopping off what's incomplete and saying: "Now it's complete because it's ended here."

"Publish" sounds too formal for the things going on here

QUICK BLAME EVERYTHING ON FTX WE HAVE LIKE A WEEK TO HIDE ALL THE COCAINE AND VAERS REPORTS
for all the back and forth on Covid bullshit, I have to say that the Office for National Statistics (ONS) seems to have enough good people to fight the good fight, our numbers have been framed in various ways but it's clear there's a hard core that have resisted political influence and are determined to follow the data, come what may

The thing about Twitter is that it really lacks a lot of the features you'd expect from a true Mastodon replacement.
For example, there's no way to edit your toots (which they, confusingly call "tweets"—let's face it, it's a bit of a silly name that's difficult to take seriously).
"Tweets" can't be covered by a content warning. There's no way to let the poster know you like their tweet without also sharing it, and no bookmark feature.
There's no way to set up your own instance, and you're basically stuck on a single instance of Twitter. That means there's no community moderators you can reach out to to quickly resolve issues. Also, you can't de-federate instances with a lot of problematic content.
It also doesn't Integrate with other fediverse platforms, and I couldn't find the option to turn the ads off.
Really, Twitter has made a good start, but it will need to add a lot of additional features before it gets to the point where it becomes a true Mastodon replacement for most users.
