@EricaJoy I’m confused when I see people still choosing to wear masks under their noses.

[@[email protected] @mfollett]

@WhaleLikeMe @EricaJoy Oh wow. Yeah, I’m the US and people weren’t really consistently masking even when it was mandated. They’d just pull out a snack and say they were eating it the whole flight. I replied to your tweet while boarding a plane with 4 people masked. Now I’m @ an airport where 1:20 are.

@WhaleLikeMe @EricaJoy What flights are you on that have enough people wearing masks for social pressure? I haven’t seen more than a small handful of the plane masked on any flight I’ve been on this year.

@diresqrl @earlyspark @garethlewin A lot of servers are bouncing between open, invite only, and closed due to the uptick

My mastodon feed is already full of art & science. I don’t know how I bridge the gap and find people, but this is basically how I started with Twitter and I’m loving being back in that space again,

@geoffeg All while talking on HN…

@prencher People weren’t paying $5 for blue. $8 for blue + checkmark makes isn’t going to have a huge uptake either. And “half the ads” just means double the ads for everyone else except the ‘23 ad rev appears fucked.

The Chinese government has got to love the utter collapse of two major US-based social networks.

[@[email protected] @mfollett]

@prencher Honestly, I can’t imagine this making a fiscal dent. Other than destroying credibility I can’t see what this does.

@s_nolander Oh yeah, the glory days of Google Reader.

I first joined Twitter because I thought it was neat that I could get updates on NASA projects. What a ride it has been. What drew other people to the platform?

[@[email protected] @mfollett]

I guess I can finally check off my list “Decide if I’m going to actually put a real picture of me on Twitter.” That one has been there for over a decade.

Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me):

CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff.

A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies.

I know you didn't get that notice.
