@mert holy shit canada is destroying itself

leave Canada before it's too late to be clear: - you already pay for the school in Canada (which is not cheap) - you obviously pay your taxes that whole time when you are there as well as paying the oligopolies of banks, housing, and telecomm, swathes of money - you earn less than any American doing the same job AND the currency you earn in is worse AND the prices of all commodities are higher - when you leave, you have the "exit tax", which makes you pay full taxes on ALL your assets as if you just sold all of them (including illiquid startup equity btw, that was fun) - and now the proposal is to pay an additional half a million in cash *just to leave the country* zero

@Jane_Doe82 saudi money

Why is Jared Kushner involved in any of this. Explain it to me like I’m 5

@JustinTrudeau cool story but how did you really manage to cripple canada's economy so thoroughly it's still reeling

Hungarians voted for change and a renewed commitment to democratic institutions after years of erosion under Viktor Orbán. A powerful and positive signal to democracies around the world that citizens can reclaim institutions and restore respect for rights.

Here's a /deai skill I use in Claude to make the articles more human before I start editing. --- name: deai description: make written article sound more human and less ai --- # De-AI Writing Skill When asked to review or clean up an article, rewrite it to sound like a human wrote it. Apply the following changes: ## What to fix **Remove filler phrases.** Cut or rephrase: - "It's worth noting", "At the end of the day", "The reality is", "Let's be clear", "Make no mistake", "In other words", "This is where it gets interesting" **Replace AI vocabulary.** Find alternatives for: - delve: explore, look at, examine - nuanced/nuance: specific, careful, detailed (or just cut it) - underscore: emphasize, show, highlight - leverage (verb): use - navigate (metaphorical): deal with, handle, work through - robust: strong, solid, reliable - crucial/vital: important (or restructure so you don't need the word) - tapestry, multifaceted: cut or rewrite the sentence **Fix punctuation habits:** - NEVER use em dashes. - Remove ellipses used for dramatic effect - Don't use colons to introduce every list or elaboration **Fix sentence structure**: - Remove punchy two-sentence paragraphs where the second sentence "reframes" the first - Break up parallelism patterns ("Not just X, but Y. Not just A, but B.") - Don't start consecutive sentences with "And" or "But" **Remove structural AI habits**: - Cut any summary paragraph at the end that just repeats what was said - Remove closing offers like "Want me to go deeper?" or "Let me know if you have questions" - Don't restate the question or topic at the start of the answer ## How to apply Rewrite the article preserving all the original meaning, facts, and tone. Don't make it casual if it wasn't. Just make it sound like a person wrote it. Prefer cutting over replacing where possible. Return only the rewritten article.

@Mavericks100xs only missing sbf as an advisor?

The biggest crypto scammers ever Prove me wrong

@justinsuntron “I have always been an ardent supporter of President Trump and his crypto friendly policy.” because it allowed me to grift and dropped investigations against me

I have always been an ardent supporter of President Trump and his crypto friendly policy. As an early supporter who invested heavily in World Liberty Financial, I did so because I believed in the vision that was presented to the public: a decentralized finance platform that would promote financial freedom, remove intermediaries, and bring the benefits of DeFi to mainstream Americans. What was never disclosed — to me or to any investor — is that World Liberty embedded a backdoor blacklisting function in the smart contract used to deploy WLFI tokens. This function gives the Company unilateral power to freeze, restrict, and effectively confiscate the property rights of any token holder, without notice, without cause, and without recourse. This is the opposite of decentralization. This is a trap door marketed as an open door. I denounce the ongoing token scandals by the bad actors at WLFI. I am the first and single largest victim, as a result of their wrongful blacklisting of my WLFI token wallet back in 2025, that violates basic investor rights and blockchain principles of fairness. Every action taken by the WLFI team to extract fees from users, to secretly implant backdoor controls over user assets, to freeze investor funds without disclosure or due process, and to treat the crypto community as a personal ATM — all of these actions are illegitimate and were never authorized by any fair, transparent, or good-faith community governance process. The governance votes cited to justify these actions were not conducted through a fair or transparent process. Key information was withheld from voters, meaningful participation was restricted, and the outcomes were predetermined. These votes do not represent the will of the community — they represent the will of those who designed them. These actions have nothing to do with me. They have nothing to do with the investors who believed the promises this project made. We oppose every one of these actions in the strongest possible terms. The WLFI team’s actions erode trust in the project. Unlock the tokens and uphold transparency for the community. Let’s build with integrity, not misconduct.

@jules30373 @cb_doge ahhh the good old “nothing to hide” crowd showed up

Just asking for a friend, but does it really matter to most people with nothing to hide, nothing that someone else who doesn’t know you sees, is it that bigger deal? What is it that I need to be so worried about? Should I cancel my air miles account, M&S card, HSBC credit card, my loyalty card at my local bar? Not sure this is applicable to us ordinary folk, or is it?

🚨 WhatsApp’s “end-to-end encrypted” privacy is a total lie. New class-action lawsuit just dropped: Meta secretly let employees, contractors like Accenture, and third parties read, intercept, and store your private messages WITHOUT consent. All while marketing it as “only you and the recipient can read it.” Zuck lied to billions. Your chats were never safe.

why do all these apps insist on showing auto translation. after auto dubbing bs on youtube now auto translate on x. i can speak more than one language. let me be ffs

claude can one shot a whole front end but still so far away

@EmmanuelMacron now do something about it other than “words”

I have just spoken with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam. I expressed France’s full solidarity in the face of the indiscriminate strikes carried out by Israel in Lebanon today, which resulted in a very high number of civilian casualties. We condemn these strikes in the strongest possible terms. They pose a direct threat to the sustainability of the ceasefire that has just been reached. Lebanon must be fully covered by it. I reiterated the need to preserve Lebanon’s territorial integrity and France’s determination to support the efforts of the Lebanese authorities to uphold the country’s sovereignty and implement the Hezbollah disarmament plan.

@nikitabier @NateSilver538 then why are new accounts automatically subbed to elon?

I would not use follower count as a measure of people patiently waiting for their posts. NY Times has been suggested in onboarding during registration since the founding of this website (even today they are bundled in the News starterpack for batch-following). Because of this, many of their followers are people’s second accounts, brand accounts, or users who have churned from Early Twitter. I would wager that less than 15% of that number is daily active, a common active rate for the “legacy” accounts like Bieber and Obama. Having said that, we are exploring concepts that show active followers instead.

53m people signed up for the NYT account which has never had much "voice" as opposed to some of its writers. That's because they were using Twiiter as a news feed with the on-platform discussion as a side course. Now that use case is broken. Few of the 53m even see their tweets.

@stelzner_n1150 it’s profitable to do. like ackman

Trump likes the following people: - Laura Loomer - Ben Shapiro - Mark Levin - Randy Fine - Lindsey Graham - Benjamin Netanyahu How on earth can anyone who's America First still support this man?!

@RichardHanania well when you join x as a new user you get auto subbed to elon and get incessant push notifications from these maga accounts. so yeah.

Jesus Christ. This is discourse hell. If this doesn't make you say bring back the gatekeepers, I don't know what will. richardhanania.com/p/bring-back-t…

@NateSilver538 new accounts subbing to @elonmusk automatically is the biggest small dick energy on the platform

These are the Twitter/X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but jeez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken.

@nikitabier @NateSilver538 i love much quality data and verifiable data you brought in with this tweet

@NateSilver538 It’s paywalled. If only 0.1% of users can derive value from the content, it will organically rank lower.

It's not my data. The source is Cluvio, which is linked to in the article. I'd link to it in this tweet, but ironically, that would kill engagement. And I know that traffic is hard to count. Especially for a private company. But if you have more accurate data, then publish it.

@adamscochran don’t forget how “hussin obama” was all it took

If Biden posted “glory to Allah” they’d literally be having an aneurism. But when their mush brain dictator does it, it’s “winning” They have no identity or values, they are happy to burn the house down, so long as you burn with them.

@EliBenSasson stick to what you know. you can’t even understand the video you posted is from months ago

This is the most important battle for Freedom of this century. May the brave Persian people get the Freedom they deserve.

@afshineemrani this video is from months ago and 40k people were killed. regime still stands. you’re a moron.

BREAKING: THE FIRST CITY HAS FALLEN. 🇮🇷🔥 ​To everyone who said regime change would never happen: LOOK AGAIN. It is happening. Right now. In the streets of Abdanan, the Iranian people have done the unthinkable. They have taken back their city. The local police didn’t just stop—they laid down their weapons and sided with the people. 🤝✊ ​Let’s be clear: This isn't the work of Trump. This isn't the work of Netanyahu. This isn't about foreign militaries. ​The regime’s Army, Navy, and Air Force have been gutted from the inside, and now the Iranian people are the ones who are armed, angry, and unstoppable. They aren't waiting for a savior—they are saving themselves. ​The streets are on fire. The old guard is crumbling. The people are rising to take back what was stolen from them decades ago. ​History is being written in blood and fire tonight. Abdanan was the first. It will not be the last. ​THE REVOLUTION IS HERE. Regime Change in progress.
