Friends — Stop letting a billionaire pick what turns up in your feed and come join the conversation at BlueSky. Who needs a conversation slanted by an oligarch when you can experience a more free exchange of ideas? And when you move, send me your handle and I’ll follow you.

The reality: whenever I allow public comments I receive a flood of antisemitism, swastikas, things I don’t even want to mention. I’m not happy about shutting off comments, but that’s X. Tell Elon: he broke it, he can fix it. Meanwhile it’s the only way I can remain on Twitter.
Pierre Delecto Too 🙈🙉🙊@DelectoToo

@stkirsch Hotez won't allow public comments on his social media posts. That's really all you need to know about the guy.

Attending celebration of 30 years of the journal @FeministEcon and in particular remarkable founding work of our friend @DStrassmann. With four economists speaking, I thought it might be a bit dull. It is not. It is inspiring. It’s a story of innovation and impact and courage.

People keep repeating this lie. They should stop. Having a blue check no longer means your identity has been verified. It means you've paid Twitter $8, with a credit card that does not have to belong to you, and given them a phone number, which does not have to be in your name.
Ian Schwartzman@Ian_Schwartzman

People will pay $8 for a coffee every morning to have their name on it, $10 a month for a streaming service to watch repeats of an old show, $50 a day on weed, but won’t pay for verification of their own identity on Twitter without acting like it’s costing them their life.

Here is the economics of Twitter blue ticks in one tweet: Cornell’s degrees are very valuable. People are willing to pay for it. If Cornell decides that it will now on sell all it’s degrees for a price, the market price of Cornell degree will quickly fall to zero.

If Elon Musk can afford to lose $200 billion in a single year, he can afford a wealth tax.

The 15th time's the charm, apparently. Americans deserve more than House Republicans' inability to govern—and better than their proposed rule changes. Their agreement to weaken watchdogs, empower extremists, and tip the scales toward special interests betrays the American people.
