I got rid of my Twitter account quite some time ago but now want to ask those that didn’t a question. I was told over the weekend that Elon posted a CGI video of one politician straight up murdering another. I find that hard to believe, even goer Elon. I was misinformed, right? Sadly, no! He even commented that it was the "best AI video to date!" despite looking only slightly better than a late season episode of Beast Wars.

I know we like to joke around a lot about Elon being cringe and unfunny. But every now and then, he opens his mouth and says something truly ghastly. (Cw: transphobia) x.com/stacycay/status/1815514478043443358What a broken, pathetic, lonely, hateful, unreflective, unloved and unloveable gremlin of an excuse for a man.

The fact that each time you like a post. And then the next time you have 25 follower requests makes this platform totally trash.
Who cares about nudes man.

I opened the Twitter app for the first time in months. I thought he was going to get rid of the bots. Under his own tweet, there are hundreds of bot replies before you see someone real. I think Twitter had a natural lifespan, but Musk seems to have sped it up drastically. It's nearly unusable A couple of months ago, he made a post about reducing the number of bots on Twitter. One of the top comments was "Nudes in Bio" bot.

Who picks a fight with popeyes?! Bluto? Remember when Lifetime did a romantic mini-movie with Mario Lopez as a sexy colonel sanders? There was buzz about what Popeyes would do in response. While I I know there is no connection, all I could think of was “Olive! I can’t holds backs me passkions no longer! I yams what I yams! And I yams a man-and yams a woman!”

I think this is just a general thing. I tried to mute some hashtags and words today that were not political at all, and although Twitter accepted the mute, I still see them. The site is just really, really bad in many, many ways. It seems to give different users different experiences as well. I've seen lots of bots on the site but never had a problem with them following me. Twitter friends in the same circles as me, posting very similar things, get swarmed by them.

The features have been tweaked so much and with so little testing it's impossible to tell what's the result of maliciousness and what's just incompetence.

Stupid app is now making you follow people you didn't follow.
This has happened to me a few times on the "for you" side of the app. You watch a video and somehow you are following them all of a sudden.
F*** that.

He’s still just a hurt little boy trying to prove something, it’s sad to see from a person his age-not a msn his age, because he isn’t one. I have a feeling that would bother him a lot more than being told he’s hated.

Does it actually spray US flags all over the screen when you click them, though?
