The world makes sense to me when @SarahKSilverman speaks.

@classroomtools @crampell Thanks, Bill. Looking back at the text, I'm both proud and quite humbled - proud to have focused on a number of vital trends; humbled by my inability to see just how destabilizing they would be. I fear I didn't have the courage to spell events out to their logical conclusion.

@ckmiller81 I just stumbled across your extraordinary Pink Floyd footage from ‘77. Wondering if we discuss for a few minutes on phone or text. I’m at seven one eight 928-5888 or email david.shenk at gmail.

@MikeSington Bubble is right. He seems to have No understanding that he’s burning all of his brands to the ground.

@duty2warn I love his lying response: “90% cheers & 10% boos” … “I’ve offended SF’s unhinged leftists” — nope. You offended decent people everywhere with your indecency.

@elonmusk This is a truly hideous statement. Using your power to vilify a selfless public servant. Grotesque.

[David Shenk @dshenk]

Elon getting booed. Much deserved. https://t.co/B9b8ZIfwr4

@orangegmusic @carlandcole @PrjctEarthAngel I once had a lovely cup of tea with Steve Silberman. Also, I once wrote a book with Steve Silberman. Oh, and I once spoke briefly to Jerry on the phone.

@nealbrennan Blocks. Wow. Thank you.

[David Shenk @dshenk]

@stevesilberman @manes @QueenCityJamz Confirming, yes. Morgantown 4/10/83 was my first. My high school English teacher Bob Moses took us.

6/7. This is *exactly* how democracies get torn apart.

5/7. But the lie is now out there in a huge way, thanks to the disinformationists. Soon, almost half the country will either believe the lie — or at least be confused enough to throw up its hands and say, “I just don’t know what to believe."

[David Shenk @dshenk]

4/7. We know for certain that this is a complete fabrication. Paul Pelosi was attacked by an unknown intruder looking to harm Nancy Pelosi.

[David Shenk @dshenk]

3/7. The essence of the lie is that Paul Pelosi was involved in a drunk dispute with a male prostitute.

2/7. But what happened on Sunday is SO much scarier. Sunday is the day that Elon Musk ever-so-innocently retweeted to his 112 million followers a clever brand-new lie about Paul Pelosi that had been carefully built over the previous two days.
