Hey, have I actually found a good client that I can keep tucked in the corner of my monitor, like I did on the bird app in The Before Times? Nice.

I saw a teen trick or treating in a care bears baby doll shirt, candy necklaces and bracelets, fake JNCOs, a clear plastic visor, and frosted tips.

PSA: the CDC has a program that pays for your COVID vaccine if your insurer won't. The guy at CVS told me that my insurer had not added the new vaccine to its formulary yet, so I'd need to pay $190. I told him about this program, showed him the website, and paid nothing. 🤗

Every analysis of Twitter has shown the bulk of tweets with substantial engagement come from a tiny fraction of the users. With this, Musk can impressively cut off both the bulk of users, who won't pay to lurk, and the bulk of posters, who won't pay to give him free content.
Elon Musk tells Benjamin Netanyahu that Twitter/X will require ALL users to pay a monthly fee: "We're moving to having a small monthly payment for use of the X system." He claims it's because of bots. (Video at 34:40) x.com/netanyahu/st...

One of the worst examples I can remember of the government giving in to performative right wing outrage. And not just the government; a lot of the media also co-signed this fake outrage.
Worth remembering that in 2009 Obama's DHS produced a report about the growing threat of right-wing extremism. When the report leaked, GOP went crazy. DHS apologized and disavowed it.

In the years since, we've seen an insurrection and multiple mass shootings targeting minorities.
