@ridark_eth This is known as picking up pennies in front of a steamroller.

When is #Trump going to announce the strategic iTunes gift card reserve? 🤣

Feels like bait for those who lap up conspiracy theories.

Did @HirokoTabuchi do any research into David Lewis for her @nytimes piece? Painted him as a whistleblower hero on PFAs+biosolids. He carried water for the infamous anti-vax fraud Wakefield. I’d expect some skepticism, esp in age of RFKJR. Journalist @deerbrian prob has thoughts.

The fact that the article is framed around him and his claims while failing to at least mention his controversial history makes me question the depth and skill of the investigation as a whole. Is the article merely trying to get eyeballs in light of the recent plastic panic?

@RickIsAWiseMan @NC5PhilWilliams Is that really your takeaway? You are implying that their error justifies him knowingly spreading lies that the MMR vaccine is inherently unsafe. Biased much?

@DrNeilStone Obviously people just started washing their hands. smh

@EliLake Non-zero probability that this is the post-mortem conclusion by a vocal bloc.

@itsdeaann No one is immune from delusion when emotionally distraught. People trust their gut and then everything becomes validating ‘evidence’ to them. We are entering the phase where the new crazies expose themselves and we realize we were only accidentally aligned with them for a time.

Post Malone - Circles would make a killer funeral dirge 👹… the extra percussion of dirt on the coffin *chef’s kiss*. What song would you want played at your funeral?

@notsilencednow This doesn’t make any sense to anyone who knows anything. The votes are still being counted. California is only half done. The final vote tally probably won’t be that much below 2020. You give them way more credit than they deserve. They aren’t 5% as capable as you suggest.

@ayeejuju What, no ‘fight’ fist pump to damn the weather commies? Amateur.

[Zak Whichard @zakwhich]

@NateSilver538 lol why don’t we just have AI agents do the voting too while we’re at it?

@tax_networkUSA Lol, makes sense don jr would be advising on tax evasion.

Thoughts on #4DX? Thinking of trying it for the first time for #AlienRomulus Haven’t been to the theaters since seeing Gravity in 3D IMAX.

@sweatystartup @Glenn_Owens17 But you missed a chance to teach him the 5-second rule.

Today I’ve seen this headline 5+ times when opening the NYT app and every single time my brain sees ‘Timeworm’. #FearIsTheMindKiller

@SwiftOnSecurity They could potentially give the internet’s most famous bro debate a run for its money… https://t.co/Tt4Pf3oNh6
