Do you remember when you joined X? I do! It was before @elonmusk turned it into a cesspool of hate and misinformation. Luckily, his genius management has led to a 72% loss in value. Hope he has to sell it off at an incredible loss, and soon.

To be clear, #Jan6, 2021, was never meant to be the end goal.

The deadly events and the concerted efforts to overturn the 2020 election were part of a long path toward the insurrection that the #SPLC has documented ⬇️

The coup is still ongoing. Prosecute #January6th all the way to the top. The riot was only part - the larger plan was to ignore the results of the election.

The modern Can movement has reached a place where coming out as anti-slavery is too risky with the base.

Stunning moment: At a town hall in Berlin, N.H., Nikki Haley was asked by a voter what was the cause of the Civil War. She said the war was about government interfering in people’s freedoms. The voter then called her out for not mentioning slavery.

This article is a time capsule. An obituary to the Soviet Union, written 32 years ago this week. In light of Ukraine, Belarus, sham Russian elections - worthwhile to look back at that moment with today's eyes. #Russia

#Amazon Prime to start charging extra for the ad-free experience you get as included today. @jeffbezos has a worldwide empire and $175 billion and is chasing nickel-and-dime ad sales like a sweaty Herb Tarlek. Pathetic. Have some vision, man. Wealth is wasted on the wealthy.

@bluejays paid 1.4% of Shohei's deal for Kevin Kiermaier. I am confident that KK is more than 1.4% the player Shohei is.
@KeeganMatheson you agree with my math?

[Terry McDonald @Terry_McD]

@DiscussingFilm @JeffBezos has $175 billion and is worried about nickels and dimes like this. Pathetic. Have some vision, man. #amazonprimevideo

We might as well stop waiting for this industry to fix itself. Legislation and regulation is going to be required to reign in corporate abuses of creative industry workers. #SpotifyWrapped

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

Spotify is planning to completely demonetize smaller artists.

Under their new plan, tracks that get fewer streams will receive no money from the company.

Spotify payouts are already small, and this will make it even harder to survive as a working artist.

Mobility aids aren't just items - they are links to the world. The loss of one, especially those custom in nature, can have devastating effects. Combine that with the correlation between disability and reduced earnings, the malicious damage of these expensive chairs is horrible

[Becca Peter @DefectiveBecca]

Wheelchair users have been trying for ages to raise awareness about their wheelchairs being broken so often when they fly, and the devastating impact this has on them.

@AmericanAir baggage handlers decided to give a demonstration of how much they enjoy breaking them 😡
