It’s been over a year since I was last on here. Got a new phone and was forced to update from Twitter to X. X… seriously, how stupid. But anyhow, how are you? Out of 10, how close to a libertarian cesspool is this thing now? Surely it can’t be worse than Threads…
My past notifications have all disappeared. ‘Cause making this lead balloon of a social media platform less functional is going to persuade me to pay for it, apparently.
For the record, I refuse to update to X. When the blue bird no longer functions, I’m out of here.
Been seeing some kickback to the Stan Grant announcement. Quite a few folks say something like, “I didn’t like his hosting style on Q&A, he interrupted guests and I couldn’t watch it. Nothing to do with him being Aboriginal.” Saw this even before Grant announced his break. 1/2
I appreciated Grant’s interruptions as he typically sharpened the question, forced the guest to get back on track/be more specific, or made a salient point himself. 3/3
“I am down but I will get back up. And you can come at me again and I will meet you with the love of my people.” Stan Grant delivers a powerful message on Q+A before taking a break from the media. #StanGrant#QandA#WeStandWithStan

Twitter makes me realise that a great many news media personalities—including many I enjoy—are not very intelligent. Their producers and managers must be very clever, though.
