@gene1111 @danlacalle @marlon_humphrey ...you do know that the amateur rule in the Olympics was lifted a long time ago, right? NBA and NHL players, as well as professional athletes around the world, compete in it. I mean at least if you're going to try to contribute snark, do your homework

@danlacalle @marlon_humphrey He’s made more money. Plus there is no comparing the structure of the AMATEUR Olympics with professional sports teams. But all that said, they may be in the finals this year. Cry more.

This is literally disgusting

@marvelvscapcom Thank you for now getting that song stuck in my head for at least a week

Gonna take you for a ride back to the arcades with MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics! 7 legendary games, one Super Heroic collection, coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Steam in 2024. #MarvelVsCapcomFightingCollection #MvCFightingCollection

@ProfBootyPhD @MarkHalleyPhD The very idea of requiring translators for essentially services is inclusion and social justice.

@MarkHalleyPhD How does the mandate you describe apply to interpreter education?

@Black1976 And we do read those reviews, so please do send the feedback. It really can make a difference.

No matter how much you want to play a game. If it is not accessible for you, refund it immediately and explain the reasons. Be nice and fair, it's the only way to help the cause. #accessibility

@dstinc1913 @POTUS Thank you President Biden! For this lovely message and for the service you've given to our country.

Thank you to President Biden (@potus) for this special message in honor of #DST110! #DST1913

@justinvincent @glickzac Yes, but also not quite. Confinity had already released PayPal (the service) in 1998, two years before X.com and Confinity merged. The company renamed itself PayPal in 2000, after the product.

@glickzac > (a company he bought, not invented) FYI: Musk co-founded the online bank X.com. X.com merged with Confinity in 2000 to form PayPal.

fun fact: elon got fired from being the ceo of paypal (a company he bought, not invented) for being too annoying and in his separation agreement he included a clause that said paypal had to list him as a founder anyways

@deeplens @SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton ...does Twitter exist in a pocket dimension?

@SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton She’s full of herself. A little experience in the real world won’t hurt.

NEW: Employees who have criticized Elon Musk in Twitter’s Slack channels were fired overnight over email. “We regret to inform you that your employment is terminated immediately,” they’re being told over email. “Your recent behavior has violated company policy.”

@crypto_callisto @SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton And Musk's reply was professional?

@SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton To be fair that's not professional. There ways to respectfully criticize and provide constructive feedback directly to management. This is not it.

@michaelgrowth @SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton For me it's less that she got fired and more that Elon Musk took this opportunity to make a crude disability joke (after laying off the entire accessibility team, no less).

@SimoneGiertz @CaseyNewton I'm confused... In what world are you able to publicly talk to your boss like this and THINK you're going to get away with it? This is literally an episode of The Office, where Toby tells him he needs to terminate him for insubordination.

@SweetReleased @noterikcastro @elonmusk It's certainly publicity, but it ain't free.

@noterikcastro @elonmusk But strangely engagement and new users are at an all time high. Maybe this is all free publicity. people have not been this interested in twitter in years.

Going forward, accounts engaged in parody must include “parody” in their name, not just in bio

@Krastenlucas @noterikcastro @elonmusk He does not build rockets. He pays other people to build rockets.

@noterikcastro @elonmusk The man literally builds rockets, and can land them with no issue after going to space. You think Twitter is something he's struggling with? 😂

It's back! 💚🌲

@soupfilledsock We do wear rain jackets, but honestly eventually you just get used to being a little chilly and a little rained on most of the time lol

moving to the pacific northwest is all fun and games until it’s literally raining constantly and ur the only person in a 20 mile radius who uses an umbrella????? these ppl out here no rain jacket?? no pep in their step???? somebody pick me up i’m scared

@soggymargin Or hope it's not, so you can go back to sleep for a solid amount of time

@carolckm @elonmusk On a platform where people talk about stuff, politics can directly affect the product

@elonmusk Allow things to settle down. After a storm serge happens, a healing process begins. This allows time for haste decisions to bottom out, and rational to reemerge. Bottom line…50% of buyers don’t care of politics, they care about good products

Twitter has had a massive drop in revenue, due to activist groups pressuring advertisers, even though nothing has changed with content moderation and we did everything we could to appease the activists. Extremely messed up! They’re trying to destroy free speech in America.

@ask_aubry "They believe suffering and pain are inevitable" WTF I am also side-eyeing the sources

A nursing book that was released in 2015. They are training in racism

I love every single one of these folks. Amazing and wonderful leaders at Xbox with inspiring stories!

@pengawino1 @sifanelepotwana You...you think no one brought up colonialism before today??

not yall rebranding colonialism as long-standing relationship

@mattbilinsky @thejoelstein @bungarsargon It is, however, a requirement to obtain the kinds of jobs that would provide said knowledge and understanding.

@thejoelstein @bungarsargon As someone with a law degree I think I’m qualified to tell you 95% of the stuff people think they need a law degree to understand, they do not need a law degree to understand.

It's the job of every American to make up their own mind about how serious former President Trump's security breach was. Don't let pundits or politicians tell you what to think. They don't have more information than you do now. Read everything available and decide for yourself.
