@jessevondoom Musk is just another Trump. Attaches his name to front other people's ideas and hard work to gain investors.

A brand.

Now he's big enough to do leveraged takeovers, loading acquisitions with debt.

He's as petty as every chain bar middle micro manager I ever worked for.

I was skeptical before, but after seeing his management skills in action I think letting Elon Musk oversee the migration of Earth's wealthiest people to Mars is a great idea.

@DisabledEliza People chuck a £10 at Children in Need, then vote for the party that puts children in need.

Did you know that there are 194 countries in the world that aren't the USA?

I still had Twitter on my phone and discovered that I wasn’t really enjoying reading what was going on there. I now limit myself to a couple of times a day when I’m using my main computer.

I’m happily using Mastodon without any problem. It’s much more fun and far less miserable than Twitter.

Funny that we seem to be going in circles.

The web started as a bunch of individuals running their own servers. Then things got professionalized, and we got the mostly benevolent, for-pay corporate services. Now that your data is more valuable than whatever meager subscription fee you're not going to pay for anyway, we're back to trusting the randos.

The plummeting server/software costs help, but it would be impossible without volunteer labor.

It behooves us to support the randos.

As sewage pollutes our rivers and coasts, nurses beg for fair pay while the boss of @AstraZeneca pockets 14m @GraceBlakeley sums up how the ‘Boom&Bust’ neoliberal policies of the Tories have been fiscally fracking Britain since the early 80s #wakeupbritain #EnoughisEnough

Trump's campaign should be covered like bin Laden trying to open a chain of flight schools.

This year, bankers collected the biggest bonuses since the 2008 crash.

Rishi Sunak claims to understand people’s hardships, but his predecessor’s plan to lift the bonus cap remains in place.

1 in 3 children will go hungry this winter, but will nobody think of the bankers?

Today’s department of the bleeding obvious take:

The lesser of two evils is still evil.

The Labour Party machine sabotaged the 2017 and 2019 elections, and if you don't know that, it's time you did.
It's no good coming on here and talking about 'winning elections' or' getting the Tories out', when your proven track record is the *exact opposite of that.*

Corporate greed has got fk all to do with the war

Inflation is simple to explain @RevRichardColes. It’s a measure of the increase in prices in a month compared to the previous year. It is high now as the impact of Putin’s war works through the economy. That war has lasted less than a year so far. A quick thread….. twitter.com/revrichardcoles/st

You couldn't make this up. Baddiel's "Jews Don't Count" for Ch4 is sponsored by Ford, the company that not only supplied the Nazis leading up to and during WW2 but was founded by Henry Ford, one of the world's most vile anti-Semites and friend of Hitler.
EPIC FAIL 🤣🤣🤣 twitter.com/JewishChron/status
