You're free to say whatever you want, as long as you say what you're supposed to say.

Speaking of freedom, whether permanent or temporary, ..

Happy Canada Day to our Canadian friends.

Amazing how DSL hates Musk now that Musk is supporting free speech.

Well for one, I doubt you’ll be able to find old posts of mine praising Musk for his electric cars or whatever it is you think I’ve said in the past. Two, he vastly overpaid for a social media platform essentially on a dare. Three, he’s running it into the ground. Advertising is down significantly, no one’s paying for Twitter Blue, and now he’s limiting usage of the app because he refused to keep paying Google to help keep the place running.

Even a lot of your fellow rightwing crackpots are complaining about him now. Many of whom are convinced that Twitter’s algorithm is stifling their reach again. It turns out it’s hard to keep overly online weirdos (who expect to “earn” a living by posting on social media) happy for any great length of time.

Leap headfirst into the nearest thresher, you gangrenous ape.

That's temporary, he's scaring people into buying the blue check. Then it will go back and people will be stuck with it, smart people like me see right through it and if you use a PC it doesn't affect you at all. I tried to tell a couple of people (higher profile) throwing hissy fits and gave up. lol

I used to think that Jemele Hill was a intelligent person.

[Mike]

Huh??

[iam416]

Yeah, I certainly never thought she was intelligent. I always thought and still think she is fundamentally unserious.

Jamele Hill vs. DSL

Tossup in stupidity.

[iam416]

That’s over the line. Mark it zero!

That’s like saying crashcourse vs anyone is a punctuation tossup

[Dr. Strangelove]

I quite agree.

The thresher awaits, WiZZie

Based on your recommendations I’ve been reading Blood Meridian. About 60% done. Possibly the most violence-filled, blood-drenched novel I’ve ever read. Quite good.

It’s stupendously good. Judge Holden is legendary.
