โ€œGo on," said Twitter. โ€œHow's it gonna be. We gonna get a little place."

"We'll have a cow," said Elon. "An' we'll have maybe a pig an' chickens . . . . an' down the flat we'll have a . . . . little piece alfalfa- "

"For the rabbits," Twitter shouted.

"For the rabbits," Elon repeated.

All of us Twitter refugees are like,

"But Mama!" I cried out. "Old Twitter's just saved your life! He's saved my life! He's saved Little Arliss' life! We can't--"

Mama got up and put her arm across my shoulders again. "I know, Son. But he's been bitten by a mad Elon."

@spinal @Popehat What the hell is wrong with you? The pitch you are pitching is seriously ignorant. Yes I have a Mastodon account and occasions peruse it. But Mastodon is mostly terrible. 'the reason I still like Twitter better is because it still works a light year better. Go find a real hobby, I'm going to be it. And get out of my feed.
