Yes. Me too. To call it out, yeah Yoel was the head of a critical team at Twitter, but the fact that he is Jewish and gay makes him an extra special target for hate. I’ve experienced passive antisemitism for my work, I can’t stan a platform using one of us as a bogeyman

The silence is deafening. No humble brag about speaking at a prestigious university commencement on any of your socials @TheSineadBurke . Maybe the icy reception led to regret? Certainly two weeks later, it doesn’t look like platforming protestors was a good decision.

Instead we were made to relive generational trauma not just from the students, but an outside speaker. You can be sure it is an experience we will never forget. #neveragain

The @TheSineadBurke I am a @TheNewSchool parent writing about yesterday’s commencement. My student has followed you and your strong message about inclusivity, and was looking forward to your speech.

@EmilyP142 @fox32news Bye!

@fox32news Highland Park used to be a solid, safe community. I live here. However, the past few years, it has been one thing after the other. We also pay the highest property taxes in the area. It's time to leave!

A bomb threat was reported at Red Oak Elementary School, prompting a large police presence Thursday morning in north suburban Highland Park. fox32chicago.com/news/red-oak-e…

@waze this isn’t just any map error, it is on a major interstate I294S in the Chicago area and actual traffic congestion is being affected by Waze users being rerouted. Help the map volunteers help you and get this fixed mandrillapp.com/track/click/98…

@hharteveldt @airmarietta @united The burger’s not bad.

Which would you pick?? DEN-EWR options on @united.

@rhappe MTG should know better than to threaten us with a good time!

@BlackttFuture Back here a LOT of people who haven’t gotten it are getting it. Also RSV and Flu-A. It’s really fun. Hope you feel better quickly

@jperlow Why? If anything, we should all be bailing on this hellsite.

@IOnSportsMedia $100 edit button? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I don’t have to pay to edit on like any other platform.

@edbrill I have seen some people write that just having the ability to edit tweets after posting makes the money a good value proposition.

Occam’s razor: read some right wing tweets. there are a ton of now “verified” Twitter blue replies. How can this many people see value in a $100/yr blue check mark??? Here’s an example account that to me, looks like an Elon stan bot. It’s a game ….twitter.com/brxx777?s=21&t…

@estherschindler This seems like the least of Elmo’s problems right now … but yeah this is one of the root causes of the chaos on this site these days.

Dear Twitter: please show me the people whom I chose to follow, not so much with the “someone you know follows this person.” Kthxbye

@pavsmith It was always a grift. They know they can’t win through the courts

@edbrill going for a fraud of 500K votes. half a million. that's quite a number... 10K here and there, mebbee... half a million. that's tricky to do in plain sight.

@jdemay @alanlepo Traveling in the US these days is pretty stressful. Once the plane hits the taxiway though, I can usually relax and fall asleep. The mask mandate made things a lot worse the last couple of years … I still wear one on a plane but at least the crazies don’t have to

@alanlepo I’ve had the opportunity to travel extensively for work, and I’ve always considered it a perk/benefit, and been grateful for the opportunity. @edbrill what’s your POV? In any case, happy holidays everyone.

Sending good vibes to anyone trying to travel right now. Travel is stressful at the best of times. The holidays and the winter weather make it even tougher. Passengers are stressed. Airline crews are stressed. It's a powder keg ready to blow. Try to be kind. Try to be patient.
