I want to expand more on the comedy of errors that led to the eviction of #Twitter from their Boulder, Colorado office.

The story that leads up to this building even existing is bizarre and hilarious, so here goes...

A thread 🧵

Twitter evicted from office amid lawsuits over unpaid rent and cleaning bills

Twitter evicted in Boulder, Colo., still faces unpaid-rent suit at HQ in California.

@scott that may be true is theory but in practice I don't know anyone who follows non-mastodon accounts through mastodon. RSS feed bots, yes, but those are still mastodon accounts.

After 251 weeks, Greta Thunberg has ended her school strike for climate, not because the climate crisis is over but because she's graduating. https://www.instagram.com/p/CtQ1cBZsVFJ/
Greta Thunberg on Instagram: "School strike week 251. Today, I graduate from school, which means I’ll no longer be able to school strike for the climate. So for me this is the last school strike, so I guess I have to write something on this day. When I started climate striking, in August 2018, I could never have expected that it would actually lead to anything. After striking every day for three weeks, we were a small group of children who decided to continue doing this every Friday. And we did, which is how Fridays For Future was formed. Some more people joined, and quite suddenly this was a global movement growing every day. During 2019, millions of youth striked from school for the climate, flooding the streets in over 180 countries. When the pandemic started, we had to find new ways to protest. With time, we started to get back on the streets again. We are still here, and we are not planning on going anywhere. So much have changed since we started, and yet we have so much further to go. We are still moving in the wrong direction, where those in power are allowed to sacrifice the most marginalised and affected people as well as the planet in the name of greed, profit and eternal economic growth. They are continuing to destabilise the biosphere and our life supporting systems, and we are rapidly approaching potential nonlinear ecological and climatic tipping points beyond human control. And in so many parts of the world, we are even speeding up the process. There are probably many of us who graduate who now wonder what kind of future it is that we are stepping into, even though we did not cause this crisis. Those of us who can speak up have a duty to do so. Everyone counts. In order to change everything, we need everyone. Of course I’ll continue to protest on Fridays, even though it’s no longer technically school striking. We simply have no other option than to do everything we possibly can. The fight has only just begun. #FridaysForFuture #SchoolStrike4Climate #ClimateStrike"
