@QasimRashid what stops the entire world from coming a seeking asylum. Just asking for clarity as I don’t understand the rules.
@acosta Why not link straight to the story on TheAtlantic.com rather than driving pointless traffic to the bird site? There's nothing of value in that tweet.
If #journalists moved en masse away from #Twitter, #Twitter would collapse.

@PadreSJ Trying to understand how a catholic priest can claim to be pro LGBTQ and belong to an organization that has an official policy against gay marriage. In addition does not allow any women to be any position of leadership?
Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler who cried at the thought of gay marriage…has a wonderful and brilliant gay nephew who had this message for his aunt on TikTok.
That’s a BS penalty. Straight BS.

Pretty incredible to think that attacking your advertisers for cutting back their spending is going to cause more companies to advertise.

Remember Tesla, somewhat famously, refuses to advertise at all. According to [checks notes] Elon Musk, apparently that means Tesla is against free speech

It's deeply frustrating watching my friends who ought to know better—journalists, tech policy people, etc.—acknowledging that Twitter's on the outs, but then getting excited about moving to yet another closed, proprietary platform.
With Twitter's collapse, funders should start helping build up federated discourse: supporting development of better security, of moderation aids, of proposals for affordances welcoming to Black Twitter and other communities. Stop thinking top down. Start thinking emergent.
Stop thinking about how to help newspapers. Start thinking about how to help communities and culture speaking for themselves. This is a place to start.
