Facebook and instagram (bloody Meta) not letting me in and I have to either sell my data for free or pay them so they supposedly don't sell my data. This is piracy, extortion!!! Thank you @elonmusk for keeping X free.
I’ll give it to @ArtBasel: Zero10 finally made it interesting. When you bring satire with @beeple and @jackbutcher and real craftsmanship from studios like @AspreyStudio, the whole fair suddenly levels up.
