26. More reporting from Gizmodo that Musk’s entire justification for the suspension of journalists is BS

Last night was about @elonmusk@twitter.com sending a message to journalists that he OWNS THEIR ACCOUNTS and journalists need to be mindful of not pissing him off.

The only appropriate response is to reject this kind of bullying.

Whatever happens, happens.

I'm setting up shop here on Mastodon for when (not if) Twitter becomes permanently useless. This looks like a nice neighborhood.

One thing no one ever talks about being an adult is how much time you debate yourself on keeping a cardboard box because it's, like, a really good box.

There is a stunning lack of Quokkas floating around here so I'm hurling this beast out into the #Fediverse so you may gaze upon its mother bleeping cuteness.

This week I need to replace a toilet then install a bidet on it. Wish me luck. #diy #homeImprovement

When I get to 100,000 followers I will SMITE Elon and his bird shite for good by making Mastodon the ultimate new hotness. This will start a domino affect that will force all social media companies to ease their algorithm chicanery.
It starts HERE! #BoostTheToots

@raynetoday Ppl have a lot of anxiety about whether the nature of the Fedi will enable the range of interactions & provide the tools for community building to enable #BlackMastodon to flourish in the same way #BlackTwitter did, but OTOH we watched in realtime as everyone onhere mutually agreed to make #BlackFriday a weekly thing -- just a few weeks ago -- and look at it now!

I see doing #introduction is customary. Hi, I'm Andy (he/him) πŸ‘‹.

I'm 40 and have my BS in Computational Mathematics. I am a principal software engineer at #Tableau / #Salesforce where I build APIs for embedded analytics. That's probably the first and last time I'll ever mention my day job.

In my free time, I enjoy PC #gaming, recreational #math and #programming, and playing the #trombone, which I used to play semi-professionally.

Excited to be here and to make new friends!

Wow! I am, personally, glad this is happening, but I never thought our lawmakers had the guts!
Apparently the House is looking to bar #Trump from running for office in 2024 due to the #14thamendment of the constitution. From the article below:

"Section 3 of the amendment states that no one who previously took an oath to support the Constitution and engaged in 'insurrection or rebellion' shall 'hold any office, civil or military, under the United States.'"

Repeated failure against the military leading to a reign of terror against innocent civilians. Chaos. Harm. Destruction. Intent. Scale. Repeated.

@CatScratchFeverIsReal I have always followed a whole range of folks on social media, but I am rather enjoying this starting from scratch thing on here and finding people I just haven't connected with elsewhere! Even if the way this thing works makes that a little more arduous, the effort is so worth it, and same goes for life elsewhere too
