Earlier today Elon Musk said that my ban was temporary, 45 min later he denied my appeal to reinstate my account and confirmed that I am *permanently* banned. The email I just received says the decision cannot be reversed.
I have never once violated Twitters rules or terms of service. I’ve never had a single tweet flagged, my account was permanently banned with no warning and with no reason, after I reached out to Musk for comment.

Sen. ChuckSchumer can put the PRESS Act in the Senate’s end of year package and be remembered as someone who cared about press freedom at a time when it's so massively under attack.

US residents need to contact their senators, pronto. This bill has already been passed in the House.

It may be the last chance for the foreseeable future to get this done.

URGENT: Tell Sen. Schumer to pass the PRESS Act and stop the government from spying on journalists

Time is running out to make the PRESS Act the law of the land before Congress adjourns.

Freedom of the Press
In all seriousness: it is terrifying that owner of major social network is handing over all private data of employees, customers, users to right-wing extremists in order to sow disinformation against democracy.

Believe Republicans when they tell you that Twitter's problem is that it didn't let them plan enough coups, threaten enough children's hospitals or share enough of Hunter's dick.

It's all proof of the only kind of systemic discrimination that exists--against far right extremists

@Lori4242 @MikeElgan US version was on live TV and everyone saw Trump inciting the mob. Trump Organization was found guilty of tax fraud. Yet, Trump is talking about running for office again and there are people who support him. We shouldn’t even pretend any more about moral authority.

USA: President attempts coup. He leaves office and continues grifting and lying and sowing division and is now running for re-election.

PERU: President attempts coup. He's impeached, arrested and thrown in jail.

Today is my 1 month anniversary of signing up for Mastodon. A few observations—after spending 13+ years on Twitter:

•The Mastodon community is kinder & more focused on lifting one another up than tearing down.

•Mastodon is learning from Twitter's mistakes by including accessibility options, incorporating an edit button, & not centralizing everything

•Engagement is not dependent on clickbait or outrage, but genuine positive content.

None of the above are absolutes, but overall, glad I'm here.

Please boost if you’re still masking indoors (in public places)

Mississippi is America’s Blackest state. It’s mostly white MAGA Govt annually rejects $1B in Federal $ for Medicaid. Now the last hospital in a rural part of MS is about to close—devastating Black & low income people.

MAGA racism & cruelty on full display. Like the old saying goes. Republicans claim government doesn’t work—then they get elected and prove it.

A Mississippi Delta hospital anchors its community. Now it may close.

If Greenwood Leflore Hospital closes, residents in the Mississippi Delta, one of the poorest regions in the U.S., will have to travel farther for health care.

Someone emailed me today asking for resources to learn how linux filesystems (like ext4, ext3, etc) work under the hood. Have any of you seen anything good out there?
