she's what we call a "hat actor" where she just does an impression based on the type of hat her character wears imo

I mean, it's been the theme of our lives for a lot longer than that, to be quite real, but it's become much more *apparent* in the past 6 years.
― Goose Bigelow, Fowl Gigolo (the table is the table), Monday, 5 December 2022 17:45 (one year ago) link
Yeah I feel like rulers being doofuses is more the norm than not. Not that that makes it any more acceptable. But I mean even before we get to the rogues' gallery of the last few centuries we had millennia of craven vain monarchs and popes and whatnot.

what is going on here
We can now tell you part of the reason why. On Tuesday, Twitter Deputy General Counsel (and former FBI General Counsel) Jim Baker was fired. Among the reasons? Vetting the first batch of “Twitter Files” – without knowledge of new management.— Matt Taibbi (@mtaibbi) December 6, 2022
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 6 December 2022 21:52 (one year ago) link
i don't even fucking know. jim baker gave them this stuff, and now they're embarrassed/mad that it wasn't as explosive as they thought? it sounds like elon didn't even realize baker worked there? fuck all these dummies.
― I? not I! He! He! HIM! (akm), Tuesday, 6 December 2022 21:58 (one year ago) link
like I believe that Jim Baker watered something down for Biden.
Again these were DICK PICS, why the FUCK do they think anyone thinks it was bad to ask Twitter to delete these. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 6 December 2022 23:17 (one year ago) link
That was their whole point, they wanted to be able to scream for 20 months about how "the truth was silenced by the Biden administration".

As someone who deleted his account, I've noticed that since yesterday if I navigate to someone's profile, after scrolling through a handful of tweets, I'm prompted to "See more Tweets from ______" by signing up for an account.

that has been the case for a long time, it predates Elon and is very annoying

yeah a lot of social media sites do that. I don't have Insta but if I click on a link from there I'm not really allowed to browse much past that.

there's a chrome extension that stops the twitter one caled "breakthrough twitter login wall," it works for me and hasn't stolen all my personal info yet that i know of

I deactivated my account before Thanksgiving and the prompt hadn't happened to me until yesterday. Maybe it turns on once you've been logged out for a certain amount of time.
― peace, man, Thursday, 8 December 2022 15:21 (one year ago) link
I nuked all Twitter accounts about a month ago but have still browsed intermittently via web, and I didn't start getting the "See more Tweets from ______" prompt until yesterday as well. Seems like it's just tied to browsing a particular user's tweets rather than browsing via keyword.

The "See more Tweets from" thing seems to be inconsistant... happens at some user's pages but not others. (I've never had an account.)

didn't elon say shadowbanning is explicitly going to be part of the new twitter anyway lol

as far as I can see, people keep getting banned like they always did, main diff is that on random days, they wake up and unban like 50,000 people who used to be permabanned, including Nazis and such
