Shouldn't Bertinelli be banned too?  She started all that impersonating crap.  

Also, does anyone know if Griffin gloated when Trump got banned?  Would be great for some spicy memes.

The best part is that Twitter hasn't even changed their ToS yet.

They're merely applying it evenly.

This bears repeating.  It is applicable to ANY JOB during a recession. Treat the break room like it is infected with a deadly virus. Be on time, go for a brisk walk during your lunch hour, don’t drink 24 hours prior showing up for work, get at least 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep before coming to work, develop a passion for accomplishing the task, use the restroom prior to getting to work or after work, smile, be polite, dress professionally, and keep your head down. If you do these things you won’t get kicked off the island.


Jesus Christ, what kind of fucking horrible work environments have you worked for? Fuck all that noise.

Thats what F You money looks like, and it's glorious to watch from the sidelines.

Imagine had someone 20 years ago told you that in 2022, an "on the spectrum" billionaire would buy an Internet platform for $44 billion, where people paid up to $15k to get a blue checkmark beside their name on the screen. (And oh yeah, this on the spectrum billionaire had also started a company that was putting satellites into earth's low orbit for internet, with rockets that are reusable, and land themselves back on earth.)

Then said billionaire lowered the price to $8 for the oh-so-sought after blue check mark, and the internet lost it's mind, and people were really angry about it.

The truth really is stranger than fiction.

I think he blames the lib culture for turning his kid trans. Decided to use some.of.his fuck you money to level the cultural playing field.  It's certainly what I'd do in that scenario.  Speaking against it will just get shut down by the machine.  So buy the machine.

Because admitting they paid $15k for it would be an embarrassment so in efforts to try to keep up appearances that the check mark was totally only given to legitimate people through legitimate verification processes they are now complaining how unfair it is to have to publicly pay for it.

To elon, twitter is the sunday morning paper.  They fucked around and censored the rich billionaire's comic strip.  Dude liked to laugh at the libsoftiktok and babylonbee.  Those guys started spitting too much fire and the pronoun people at twitter banned the accounts.

Elon bought the newspaper so he could get his funny pages back in it.

It’d be pretty fucking cool if he combines all his aspirations into one or more fair & uncensorable platforms hosted from space.
