I didn’t lose my job mate but enjoy running around the internet being mean to people. Interesting life choice.

For Christmas this year, I’m going to splurge and give everyone in my family blue checks on Twitter.

the best part of elon musk posting through his troubles owning this website is that it’s clearly bothering him how much pushback he’s getting. he has let us know his weakness and that bullying gets to him

It’s impossible to tell the stories of the Arab Spring, Black Lives Matter, MeToo - but also the Trump Presidency and Jan 6 - without Twitter. I wonder how history books will describe it, and how …

He's not the wealthiest man who ever lived. It's pretty damning that you're so insecure that you get defensive on some rich loser's behalf.

There is nothing better than waking up and enjoying a fresh, steaming cup of my own urine. Such a tangy way to start the day, and it’s scientifically proven to help brain cells grow. If you want to be like me, drink your pee.

how many incidents do you think twitter has in a day, how many do you think they're going to have, how many do you think they have the capacity to respond to now
