[Joe Randazzo @YankeeLibrarian]

Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock’s SNL bit when Donald Trump won in 2016 holds up still.

I’m shocked this many people are shocked.

[Dana Goldberg @DGComedy]

If you plan on voting for Jill Stein or Trump because of the war in the Middle East, please watch and reconsider. It’s just 6 minutes and it’s worth the watch.

[Hey, Dave! @davegreenidge57]

He’s just out on the tarmac having someone drive him around in circles. Why do I feel like this will become the defining meme for his entire campaign?

Man, this is just weird. 🍿

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

I don’t know why I get a DM like this. My answer:

1. Undo the unprecedented plugin theft (which also broke sites, and is a supply chain attack). Hand the actively maintained ACF plugin back.

2. (Cont’d)

[Pete Tasker ⛅ @petetasker]

I have to come out of twitter retirement to comment on this. This is insane. Matt taking over a plugin with 2M+ downloads?!?. Lawsuit writes itself.

[Advanced Custom Fields @wp_acf]

We have been made aware that the Advanced Custom Fields plugin on the WordPress directory has been taken over by WordPress dot org.

A plugin under active development has never been unilaterally and forcibly taken away from its creator without consent in the 21 year history of WordPress.

[Advanced Custom Fields @wp_acf]

The ACF team has been blocked from accessing WordPress dot org and are unable to release updates for the free version of ACF.

We have a solution to ensure users receive updates going forward.

Marjorie Taylor Greene looks different. 🤔

[Pete Tasker ⛅ @petetasker]

Good ol white men, they've been running things great so far. Wait.

[TechCrunch @TechCrunch]

Meta announced the creation of an AI advisory council with only white men on it.

It isn’t all that surprising — but it suggests a narrow view of who gets to have a say in the direction of AI at one of the biggest tech companies in the world.
