To call me a history enthusiast would be a bit of an understatement. I’m more of a history “obsessivist”.

@JaneFallen1 @elonmusk @ggreenwald But it’s not to their shame. They showed no indication of feeling shame. They are rather being shamed. Which is entirely different. An extremely wealthy man who controls a large social platform purporting to support free speech is SHAMING people for speaking freely

[Tara Hinkley @TheHistorium]

@politicalnoob85 @elonmusk @ggreenwald I think you are missing my point. They are using free speech to do it. That’s how.

[Tara Hinkley @TheHistorium]

@mkdir_catpics @elonmusk @ggreenwald @elonmusk only wants to support free speech that elevates his ideas, businesses and platforms- that’s not freedom- that’s autocracy.

[Tara Hinkley @TheHistorium]

@mkdir_catpics @elonmusk @ggreenwald In what way? Free speech is for everyone, no matter the speaker’s vocation or the outlet. To imply those people don’t have a right to execute that freedom is to violate the very principle of free speech. This isn’t circular it’s logical.

@BramPalsy @elonmusk @ggreenwald I have heard about it on NPR. I’m missing the connection.

[Tara Hinkley @TheHistorium]

@elonmusk @ggreenwald This is the definition of irony…. What? If there is free speech they can argue whatever they want. That’s how free speech works. If you are going to crusade for something at least know what you are fighting for. It isn’t just free speech when it benefits you…

@mcuban @costplusdrugs Creon- costs thousands every month and cannot survive without it. 😞

[Tara Hinkley @TheHistorium]

@elonmusk Let’s be clear: free speech is very important and a worthy cause, but it is not the same thing as accurate news. Interchanging those two ideas makes it completely impossible to guarantee that either will have a place on this platform.

Mary Shelley did try to warn us about hubristic STEM bros who make strange, impulsive experiments and then watch helplessly as their creation destroys itself at the expense of ordinary people.

I know we are all anxious to get back to normal, but for so many people the risks are still ever-present. Remember to look out for the people around you. Remember that your actions affect other people. Don't let the past year and a half be for nothing. https://t.co/UnHGmVuMJn

Does anyone else feel a little twinge of anxiety when face recognition doesn’t work? Like, I knew today wasn’t a 10/10 day, but is my face so bad the robots can’t identify me?
