If you gave me this screenshot with the last four words blanked out, I definitely wouldnât be able to guess them

@elonmusk @StephenKing Only on Twitter can we watch a man worth $200 billion negotiate with a man worth $500 million about saving $12 a month.

"Having tens of thousands of followers on YouTube or Instagram makes you an income. Having tens of thousands of followers on Twitter makes you a target."

Seems like a bad take to me but if the new president of Brazil wants to try to mediate that wouldn't be the worst idea in the world.

-Twitter's revenue is currently overwhelmingly ad money.
-But appeasing advertisers means being less edgy than Elon would like (for instance, the CEO tweeting fun conspiracy theories is a no-no)
-So he desperately wants to pivot revenue away from ads
-Hence $20 blue check stuff

Covid rates have been uniformly good in the U.S., but there IS geographic variation. For example, I'm OK eating indoors in SF now (7 cases/100K/d). But I'm heading to NYC this Friday, and I won't (29 cases/100K/d). Why? The same encounter there is 4x riskier Covid-wise than here.

Republicans want you to believe that contraception is safe. They are lying to you.

One of the lessons of Trump is that American society doesnât know how to process people announcing their nefarious plans out in the open for everyone to hear. https://t.co/AptWpPjrS5
