Testing, testing... Is this thing [still] on?

@ewzucker I can honestly say I've never felt any pressure to watch an MCU film, nor have I (as far as I remember). I just want the ads to stop😭

[Ed @EdwardFerrara_]

Okay, I'll bite: how much to get them to stop making Marvel movies?

@mearabelle_ Def not new, but I feel like a lot of veneer has been shed the past ~2 years

One thing The Pandemic has brought into sharp relief is the extent to which politics, even at the interpersonal level, is about rewarding friends and punishing enemies.
The notion of "the pursuit of the common good" seems hopelessly naive from this vantage point.

@meistraw @EllenMftw It's excellent. So so busy, but I'm very happy here! How's MA treatin' ya?

[Ed @EdwardFerrara_]

Though to be fair, punishing friends has become pretty popular in its own way

@EllenMftw Lmaooo can't believe I don't get to drive by this :'(

[Ed @EdwardFerrara_]

Ooooh that's why everyone was talking about Jadakiss a month or so ago
