Two thoughts from all this and more.

1) White supremacy is thriving in GOP. It’s a feature, not a bug.

2) GOP was never about law and order—they were always about advancing racism, and their defiance of their own right wing court is further proof.

You kids complaining about student loans need to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and find a mysterious donor to pay off all your debts like a Supreme Court Justice.

This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.

The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.

In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.

The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.

This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.

Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.

Lest anyone doubt that Twitter was idiotic enough to release code that would cause a race condition and result in its own users executing a DDOS attack on it, here's the network console readout from Firefox showing all the network requests blasting away.

Of course I immediately closed out my connection because I'm a good person.

...but wait! It's the weekend and Evil Sheldon is in control so I kept the party going for a while since Twitter insisted on it.

One time, I bought an item at Costco for $25.99. I see the cost per item at Costco now is down under $14! Thanks for the price cuts, Joe Biden!!!
