First, Twitter suspended the accounts of journalists who’d been critical of @elonmusk.

Then it blocked users’ links to their accounts on other social media platforms.

Maybe I’ll come back if and when a new CEO shows more presence of mind. But until then I’ll be on Mastodon.

@Slate's What's Next team tracked down and interviewed the individual who led NYC's previous involuntary commitment program in the 80s.

Talk about a good get!

Listen--it's worth it.

And this is the guy @NYTimes invited to a ⁦@dealbook⁩ event?

Clearly these live event series are an important new revenue source for media orgs but this is a good example of the conflicts of interest they create.

@__zaby @TheTakeaway But wait—I thought there was no evidence the attack was linked to anti-drag sentiment.

The union that pushed to expand gambling has also scuttled attempts to provide shelter and services to the city’s homeless. ⁦@nytimes⁩ https://t.co/74ur1VXBps

“The backdrop is this massive change in British society where there are fewer coal miners or manual labourers to have these kinds of working-class sons and daughters, so there are fewer working-class people coming through.” ⁦@guardian⁩ https://t.co/qGvYyEH1J5

"It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them."

Nice point by @helaineolen: GMA 3 and other shows *depend* on a fake flirtatious romance between their male and female hosts. So what if this one became real? https://t.co/qG623yONGI

Love this. #Salary for @wsj social media editor is $40-160k, anywhere from barely squeaking by to living handsomely.

#NYC now requires employers to post ranges to improve gender equity, etc., but some of them are so broad as to be utterly meaningless.

@AlixBrizet @olgatokariuk Well, that's an idea. You mean clicking on each account you follow? Tedious though too?

Apparently some people think solar farms are unattractive.

But pretty much EVERYBODY thinks parking lots are unattractive. https://t.co/GPKAjWzkRf

@Snowden Has this guy ever heard of Lina Khan or Tim Wu?

The Sinema thing is very simple. Her calculus is that
1. She can't win a primary;
2. If she runs as an independent who caucuses with the Dems, another Democrat can't run bc they would split the vote and give the seat to the Republicans.

I'm devastated by the loss of Grant Wahl. He was a peerless journalist and kind man whose coverage of soccer was fair an fearless.

The best way all of us can honor him is do what he did throughout his distinguished career:

Pursue the truth, without fear or favor, always.

Interesting but confused by statement that farmers refusing buyouts "will be forced out of business." How so?

@TheGuardian quotes NL nitrogen minister: "After a year, we will see if this has achieved enough.”

Been struggling to grasp significance of #TwitterFiles. Much commentary biased 1 way or other. But this from @mtaibbi helps: “So far what I’ve seen mostly just confirms what we know, though it’s embarrassing to read.” https://t.co/CeFFUj8KqQ via @politico @SchreckReports

“Real marriage is between a man and a woman. Other couples will never share that kind of love.”

Hmm, I just watched Cherelle Griner fight for 294 days until her wife was freed.
