Pourme (aka Benny Fry)

It's a sad day for me, Dear @elonmusk This is indeed a sad day. I signed up for Twitter in February 2009. Quickly grew to 40k+ followers talking #NASCAR. I was one of the original users of TweetDeck, which became X Pro. The world changed, and so did NASCAR. My focus shifted to politics, and my followers dropped by about 25% almost overnight. I was one of your biggest cheerleaders when you bought Twitter. I proudly posted #Elonscomin and supported the move to save free speech in America. For 17 years I've furnished content here. For the last several years I paid $8/month—mainly to keep using X Pro, a tool no serious user should have to do without. Now, on my retired budget, I can't afford the jump to $40/month for Premium+ just to keep X Pro. Access to X-Pro was taken away immediately and without notice, even though my subscription runs until April 14. I had hoped to enjoy this platform deep into retirement. I didn't realize cheering your arrival would help enable the end of my own account. What must be, must be. I'll happily disengage. The bigger point: I was right to hail your purchase of Twitter at the time. You did the right thing for free speech. I just didn't expect the platform we all clung to would become a $40+ per month indulgence mainly for the wealthy. I'm not a billionaire, so I'll step aside. Continued success in all your endeavors, Elon. I'm still a supporter, though the shine has worn off just a bit. Thank you for reading. @Pourme

@blindnascarfan @elonmusk X is for the affluent to participate. Otherwise mostly watch.

@pourme @elonmusk No. It's not. When things like this go up in price, I feel like founding members should be grandfathered in. I couldn't afford to pay the old pricing. No way I'd be able to pay the new pricing. I'd never pay for social media anyway. It's the principle of the thing for me.

@blindnascarfan @elonmusk It's not fair to the ones that helped Twitter survive. Thans!

@pourme @elonmusk All the good people are leaving.

I can't use X-Pro any more. I'll pay $8.00 not $40... I only paid $8 to use X-Pro. Why would I pay for this? After 17 years on this platform.. I'm done. ...and I just made this really cool avatair. ...The End

Target Does What?

Once Trump takes The Strait of Hormuz... Time to re-brand. Shed that whole "terrorist" persona... I'm thinking perhaps, "Strait of Trump"? My personal choice... "Trump Strait" What SAY YOU? 🤜🤛

SPRING! Is in the Air!

SPRING! Is just around the corner😎 ~

My sources tell me... If you work in a missile manufacturing facility in Iran.. You can stay home today. ~

When the Purdy lady on my tv says “won” and “one”….. They sound exactly the same @foxandfriends ~

In #IranWar‌ Trump is protecting my family and myself... Just like he said he would. If you don't like what he's doing... He's protecting you too. Just like he said he would....

Three of us… Now we are a force! 😊

I'm Not Wearing Green .

Are Democrats getting PAID to abandon the American voters in a time of international conflict with our greatest “death to America” foe for the past 47 years? Or are they complicit in our mutual destruction?

Written to The President of the United States just last week by @alilarijani_ir , Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council “Iran is not afraid of your empty threats. Even those greater than you could not eliminate the Iranian nation. Be careful not to get eliminated yourself!”…. Eliminated last night.

Is Cuba now in competition with Canada to become the 51st state?

“I’ve seen a lot of shit in my time… Right now, radical Democrats are playing ‘chicken’ with domestic terrorists— Holding everyday Americans hostage over their ICE enforcement whims. It’s a blatant wink and nod: tie the government’s hands, let chaos ensue… Then use the fallout to ram through their agenda. When will the public finally wake up and ask: Whose side are the Dems really on?

There Are No Walmarts In Iran.
