16 years ago, I created @music and have been running it ever since. Just now, Twitter / X just ripped it away.
Super pissed

There is much, much more to do, but from what I can tell it is not widely understood that US per-capita CO₂ emissions have fallen below WWI levels: https://t.co/WBiPUh7qSg

This was a vanity purchase, don’t expect company leadership to focus on what’s important for the business.

Wallet creation can be cumbersome, Family takes a interesting approach that instead of making it easier/faster, it tries to add meaning and delight with a snappy experience.

[Family @family]

Creating your first wallet is a meaningful moment. In Family, it feels that way. During setup, personalize your wallet to your liking and watch a beautiful animation bring it to life. We guide you every step of the way to ensure you feel confident moving forward. ✨

We’re excited to share our intent to acquire @Figma. Together, we will usher in a new era of collaborative creativity. Key info: https://t.co/9wDSHPhyvE

This seems pretty important: There's an ongoing collapse in pro-institution sentiment among Republicans—who disapprove of colleges, big corporations, tech firms, media, entertainment, and unions. Basically: Everything is bad, except church.
