Ho, ho, that Jack Dorsey. What a kidder.
Call me a vengeful asshole if you will, but the ghosts of George Kennan and Hans Morgenthau will take special pleasure in beating the snot out of a newly arrived Henry Kissinger for giving US foreign policy shapers such a bad name.

Y'know, if Elon was trying to win some imaginary award like the 2023 Manly Man Overcompensation Prize, he'd have it hands down. But somehow, I think he wasn't.

And all this over wearing a damn cowboy hat the wrong way. Or maybe not.

Yet more proof that he can dish it out, but he can't take it.

It's an implausible Photoshop job, anyway. Dogs have much higher standards than this.

The plan in a nutshell:

1) obtain grenade;
2) loosen pants;
3) pull pin of grenade and drop down loosened pants;
4) ...

5) PROFIT!

This Tweet wasn't aimed at me personally, but when cheerleading for violence against doctors by idiots with a following happens, there's really only one thing you can do in response other than blocking/muting.

Enough people were pissed off that Fenix Ammunition Tweeted this (this is only the text - the accompanying photo vanished after the account was suspended or nuked) that it cost them. Problem is, some nutjob still might take this fully to heart and try to make someone a statistic.

I'm sure that the CNN town hall will be nothing but a bundle of yuks when a completely joyful and humorous Daddy Griftbucks hits the stage.

Short version: on Tw*tter, wint (among others) has been mocking Dear Leader's latest pay to play shell game, and a number of people who are paying $8 a month for a now *completely useless* "verification checkmark" are in high dudgeon over being mocked for it.

Whoever this guy/entity/bot is just takes the cake, though. Asking for wint to be expelled for violating double secret probation or whatever.

It is to laugh. Ruefully, but it is to laugh.
