it's genuinely wild how we heard nothing but long winded platitudes on how innovative silicon valley was for like 20 straight years and it's all culminated in a bunch of the dullest, most petulant billionaires imaginable all just copying each other's version of a very basic chat app

I didn't think they'd raise the walls on *my* garden, sobs the woman who registered at the walled-garden website.
The best thing I've seen written on Musk and Twitter is this random YouTube comment (that I can't find a way to link to directly)

The asteroid that ended the dinosaurs was technically the highest ratio of killing birds to one stone.

I agree with Jack Dorsey's point here.

But who created this problem?

Good morning! A post just rolled across my fedi-timeline saying not to post about politics on Mastodon, so I'm here to remind you that:

1 "politics" refers to decision-making about how to live together in groups
2 choosing to not participate in political discussion is saying you support the status quo, and is a political stance
3 abstaining from politics because you feel safe from its impacts is a privilege and a choice to abandon your more vulnerable neighbours

Awareness post: there is an instance on fedi called 'dolphin.town' where you can only post 'EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'

my experience on this dying world has been made richer through this knowledge, and may yours be also
