What is the point of trying?

NYT has an interesting story today about China being the top manufacturer of cars now.

I can’t share it because @elonmusk coded the site to not allow NYT links. And if I strip it, the article will be deprioritized in the algo.

Pure censorship.

[AltYellowstoneNatPar @AltYelloNatPark]

Due to the ongoing censorship here on Twitter we have decided to move over to B Lue S Ky. Which you can't even say here without additional harassment. Our views/impressions are down 95% since M Usk took over.

Retweet it 😎

@haileybranson @shelbygrad @latimes Well, after all, they’re all turkeys.

@doctorow 57 post thread? tl;dr for sure. That’s abuse of the platform. Why don’t you just go write a novel?

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@PeterTwinklage @kantarjiev Good qualifications! Seven promises to three different allies, all of which he’ll cheat on…Sounds like a Republican SecDef to me!

@catatonicsextoy @PhoenixGirl73 @bootsndiamonds @Dragonfly194 @Andie00471 @Oheythere56 Likewise, a high school classmate of mine had exactly that track. He’s now a doctor.

@_giacomo_volpe_ @gspeng Historically, Prop 13 has been the third rail of CA politics. “Electeds” ignore it because all the previous “electeds” who’ve tried to touch it aren’t “electeds” any more. So there’s that.

@jk_rowling Pretty good for a horse missing a leg.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@bikinginla @gatodejazz I could go for that…given an amendment that would stop a bike from rolling through a stop sign when there’s cross traffic.

@AltYelloNatPark @caroledwine Obviously, make sure you wear a gillie suit while you spray-paint all the external cameras, or you WILL regret this…

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@streetsforall @metrolosangeles @MayorOfLA Bet they don’t cite the popo….

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@AltYelloNatPark @PM_ViktorOrban @realDonaldTrump Indeed. And it takes one to know one, Mr. Orbán.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@NeolithicSheep Then from what I’ve seen over the last 45 years of living here, you may well die.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@streetsforall And in the interests of pure “whataboutism”: What about MacArthur Park? Today’s LA Times clearly shows it needs help far worse than this place.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@BlizzardCS Agreed, I do update AddOns regularly. The problem is orphan packages. For example, I sure wish some Lua expert would bring FishingBuddy up to date. So useful!

@RBReich “It never happened and besides it was two other guys.”

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@AltYelloNatPark Danger! That’s what Hillary Clinton thought.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@gspeng If it weren’t for Prop 13, I wouldn’t be able to live where I do. I voted against it…and now I depend on it.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@SafeStreetRebel @reed Good luck with that one.

[Michael O'Brien @misterprotocol]

@SafeStreetRebel @gspeng Yes, definitely better the Waymo hits the car.
