No one embodies the saying "money can't buy you happiness" more than #ElonMusk. He's so desperate for attention and validation and he searches for it in the absolute worst corners.
@Teri_Kanefield Can you speak to the next steps with Alabama refusing to create another Black majority district?

Twitter can ban whoever it wants to. It's a private company & has no obligation to platform anyone. That said, kicking people off for mocking the CEO is a disastrous business model for a business whose only value is the community it's built.

That this purge is being pursued by someone who already announced that he's open to running the company into bankruptcy is... a fact people shouldn't overlook.

It’s wild that we can see images like this from NASA’s Webb Telescope - galaxies hundreds of millions of light years away, stars being born & dying - and yet carry on ravaging the planet as if it’s not miraculous that somehow, we’re here.

A tiny speck of sand in the vastness of the cosmos. #space

There are people on this platform who want no politics.
We didn’t move over from Twitter to talk about kittens everyday.
We needed a place to carry on our work. To carry on fighting injustice, racism, misogyny, antisemitism and anti-LGBTQ hate. Because these things are important no matter what platform we are using. That was the whole point of our #twittermigration
We don’t have the privilege to be quiet.
Elon Musk's attempted fire-by-email of European Twitter VP Sinéad McSweeney has been overruled by Irish Court. You can't fire people like that in Europe. https://www.independent.ie/business/technology/news/twitter-has-reinstated-senior-irish-executive-sinead-mcsweeney-following-generic-firing-email-high-court-told-42185817.html

Now that #ElonMusk is suspending eople for criticizing him, we need to stop saying "Twitter" did it. There are still veteran employees left there who are no fans of Musk's and we need to be clear these suspensions are entirely the result of Musk's fragile ego.

If you enjoy someone's post on #Mastodon go ahead and click the star. If someone tells you that's meaningless because there's no #algorithm, ignore them. Sure, boost the post too if you want others to also see the post, but don't think telling someone you like what they posted is somehow unimportant. In real life I don't tell someone, "good job," or "well said," or "I love that," for the sake of some algorithm, I do it because I'm human and they are too. It's fundamental to being truly social.
