Bad news.
14,000 people have been fired from the Ganymede terraforming project.

Well, thankfully for once Twitter is proving to have free speech laws.
JK Rowling threatened someone with a libel lawsuit for saying she denied the Holocaust last month, and plenty of people in America where libel laws don't put the burden of proof on the defendant managed to get "JK Rowling is a Holocaust denier" trending.
Also seeing as I'm a British resident, for legal reasons I cannot confirm wether I think JK Rowling denied the Holocaust, just that the tweets that kicked off this incident were made unavailable in Germany due to Twitter having to follow German law on removing content for denying the Holocaust.

Apparently, she was in fact doing Holocaust denial according to German law. The Holocaust targeted more than just Jewish people. Trans people (and LGBTQ+ people in general) were also targeted by the Nazis along with other othered groups like Romani. So what she posted/linked that said trans people weren't targeted by Nazis is the literal definition of Holocaust denial.

Even with the best solicitors money can buy she really, really doesn't want to take this to court. Even with UK libel laws, spousal abuser Johnny Depp proved it can go pearshaped pretty damned fast, especially as what she posted and her piss weak defences are there for all the world to see. 'I'm only denying -some- groups were exterminated in the holocaust' is not the strong defence she thinks it it.

Rowling has gradually transitioned into the villain of her own books.

I’ve had to join social media for my graphic design career, ya know… gotta get out there and get that engagement. Every last follower I’ve gotten on “X” is some shitty crypto scam bot.

I'm not sure why these companies expect this stuff to change, it's become a feature not a bug by now.

They've only shipped less than 4000 of these things? And all of them got recalled?

This site's so f***ing doomed very soon In theory, this would be good for the site and eliminate really bad account and shitty bot replies The issue is that's all "in theory" due to who is in charge, this likely won't even be implemented and he's just saying shit...
