@natashasrussia You have to play with the settings, and you’ll get much more targeted content that is mostly who you follow. Go to the two bars in the upper left then notifications and then threads and replies. Put your settings to this:

@DakGil17 Nope. This is what am unedited photo looks like in NY right now

@juliusssiezure The only inevitability was that Waystar/ATN (and by extension fascism) would win. Mattsen and Tom have the perfect level of utter amorality and just enough competence to ensure that.

BREAKING: @NPR drops bombshell, reveals that Elon Musk just sent them a “series” of angry emails “threatening” to revoke their Twitter handle and “reassign it to another company” if they don’t “start tweeting again.”

One ex-Twitter executive was shocked by Musk’s threat, telling NPR that such a threat “should be alarming to any business operating on the site, since it indicates that acquiescing to Musk's every whim may be necessary in order to avoid being impersonated on Twitter.”

Social media experts say that Musk’s threat “poses a serious risk of impersonation and could imperil a company's reputation” and that “if this is a sign of things to come on Twitter, we might soon see even more of a rapid retreat by media organizations and other brands that don't think it's worth the risk," said Emily Bell, a professor at Columbia Journalism School who studies social media. "It's really an extraordinary threat to make."

Last month, NPR effectively quit Twitter after Musk applied a label to the news organization's account that falsely suggested it was state-controlled. Other public media organizations, including PBS and the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., followed suit and stopped tweeting following similar labeling.

In an email sent at 2:19 a.m. EST after this story was originally published on the NPR website, Musk wrote a new email to NPR without any text in the body but with this subject line: "You suck."

Please RT to expose Musk’s awful tenure as Twitter CEO, smash the ❤️ if you have NPR’S back against him, and consider joining the growing exodus to https://t.co/3VM3MqTSy0, a new Twitter alternative that I created that Musk is trying to keep everyone from finding out about. He banned Tribel’s Twitter account last week — but he has yet to ban this link to download Tribel’s new app: https://t.co/0c9FDbB14A

@OmarRiverosays @bgrahamdisciple @NPR Funny how that link doesn’t work…

@Tazerface16 @OnesieInd @TheHoustonWade @BL22446688 @CopperBonsai Wharton undergrad is arguably even more prestigious than an MBA from Wharton. And Wharton undergrads make it very clear they went to Wharton, not Penn. (Not disputing they let in some people for $ though.)

@tobyconrad @trippinkitty1 @MarshalMike1 @AltaCentral Because first responders are obligated to then risk their lives trying to rescue you. As a community, people have an obligation to care for each other - it goes both ways.

@ajbauer If all you want is power, this is an easy way to fame and fortune. Support Biden at Princeton? Nobody cares. But a conservative will get think tank internships, media attention, and lots of donors for that congressional run. Attracts lots of people willing to sell their souls.

@ZoeSchiffer I know this doesn’t take away the awfulness of receiving that, but for every one of those, there are a dozen like me who find your work inspiring. Your reporting is just so good, and what you write is influential.

@Carnage4Life When I read rules like this I always wonder about the definitions used. Because by nature, successful companies invest in a lot of failed initiatives along with successful ones. Are those employees then considered unproductive?

@GergelyOrosz I found this interesting - a clear rebuttal to the layoffs going on now. https://t.co/0q0O4PVmV8

Charles McGonigal, the NY FBI agent in charge of investigating Trump’s Russian collusion, has been indicted as a double agent working for Russia.

[Rachel Erickson @Rericksonhee]

@enoughtopray @SuperCoolKay I think what the book showed, which is the common thread between Russia’s corruption and its imperialism, is that the only thing that matters in Russia is power. If you can take something, you do. And that applies to chemical business and countries.

Seeing ads for Saudi Arabia’s NEOM popping up in my Twitter feed. Wonder if this is the Twitter equivalent of Etihad’s sponsorship of Man City. OK pouring billions into an app if they can control the owner that way.

@jjstoller @rbernier22 @RickWoollams @bgrahamdisciple @70ChevyNova It’s a blue check mark with 96 followers. Of course they think he’s brilliant.

[Rachel Erickson @Rericksonhee]

@firthermor @williamlegate Is it just me or are there no ads when you use lists?

Retweet if you pronouns are Boycott/ Tesla.

@olivercampbell People trying to act like Elon Musk is Conte when in reality, he’s Ed Woodward.

Oh shit lol. Twitter HQ in San Francisco tonight
