I’m going to start a thread of Tiny Gig Jobs which are jobs I wish I could hire people to do for very tiny tasks.

I’m about to bounce to. Me and NPR

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

Oh wow. NPR just announced that it will stop using Twitter & doesn’t mince words about the platform, saying, “We are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility.” This is how you stand up to Elon Musk.

[Nicholas Grossman @NGrossman81]

Ukraine's parliament voted 278-38 for "protecting the functioning of the Ukrainian language as the state language." Like France does with French. No one punished for what they speak.
The reason people don't say that justifies Russia attacking 3 years later is because it doesn't.

[Dmitry Grozoubinski @DmitryOpines]

This incredibly deceptive, Musk could have spent 30 seconds on Wikipedia to learn that.

The 2012 law "repealed" by Parliament didn't "allow Russian", it let schools, courts and governments to use it INSTEAD of Ukrainian.

Also, the then President vetoed the repeal!

Elon Musk is very dumb on these matters. Very dumb. Offensively dumb.

The 50k dead civilians what language they spoke (Russian) and what side of the war they were on.

Thinking there is some nuance in this conflict by thinking people don’t know Russian is spoken in UKR is dumb

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

@KanekoaTheGreat Almost no one among the cognoscenti even knows this.

Why does our western press insist on pushing such a lopsided view of the conflict?

They must either think that the public is too dumb to understand nuance or the press themselves lack a deep understanding.

While russian athletes are being welcomed to international competitions (after serving in the Russian army, wearing "Z" symbols, speaking in favor of the war or have simply failing to condemn the atrocities by done by their country), Ukrainian athletes continue dying protecting their freedom.

Gross. Russian athletes by and large are in the RF. They have waged a year-long war that has killed thousands and thousands. Evil has a home and an address. https://t.co/ksVrHhRdRO

My mother was deported to Siberia today 74 years ago as a 6-months old baby. Russia hasn’t changed.

Magic moment: a Ukrainian child who had been abducted by the invading Russian army is reunited with his parents after being rescued and returned to Ukraine

Today is the last day I was wearing railway uniform. 393 days I wore it without any single day of exception. Time to say goodbye.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Zaporizhzhia. Right now, residential areas where ordinary people and children live are being fired at.
This must not become "just another day" in 🇺🇦 or anywhere else in the world. The world needs greater unity and determination to defeat Russian terror faster and protect lives.
