Mastodon MigrationElon's new plan to monetize Twitter is brilliant. Now that he has restored the #EightBuckSchmuck blue checkmark to wealthy famous people who don't want it, he can charge them a stiff fee to remove it again.
Alex Chaffeewe have reached the part where the Sneetches have realized stars aren’t cool anymore and everyone starts adding and removing them at random while the huckster grins
@alexch Great comment!
"The Sneetches is a [Dr. Seuss] book about two kinds of Sneetches: those with stars on their bellies and those without stars on their bellies... The Star-Belly Sneetches think they are better... Along comes an entrepreneur who, in exchange for money, will place stars on the Plain-Belly Sneetches... To remain special and superior the Star-Belly Sneetches [then] pay the entrepreneur to remove their stars from their bellies..."
LakeRNistired@mastodonmigration Reminds me of Dr Seuss’s “Stars on thars” story!
