Did anyone imagine there’d be a different outcome? 😅
When Elon Musk bought Twitter a year ago, he said that it “obviously cannot become a free-for-all hellscape.” A year later, according to study after study, the platform now rebranded as X has become exactly that.

Just finished reading. A very balanced and important account of the role of microbes in the evolution of life by the Pulitzer prize winning author Ed Yong. A definite read!

I look forward to reading his second book “An Immense World”.
