I share everyone's privacy/corporate dystopia concerns about Threads, but honestly the main reason I'm not getting an account there is I can't get the username "bootstheory" and I don't know if I can be bothered using my existing IG handle which I associate much more strongly with random food pics and selfies

#twitpocalypse

The ongoing #Twitter apocalypse (#Twitpocalypse?) strikes a chord, because I recently walked away from a job—which I otherwise liked!—after being transferred to a sociopathic manager who wanted me gone. It just wasn't worth fighting with them, particularly when the ultimate outcome was just enriching a bunch of private equity vampires.

Though I've not liked Twitter much since 2016, I feel for the employees who are feeling forced out (of what seems to have been a fun workplace) by a shit boss.

Professor Scott Galloway speaking about how many people give quasi-religious veneration to tech entrepreneurs, such as Elon Musk.

Very interesting 🤔

Sharing some resources about #postCOVID risk. I have absolutely relied on #MedicalTwitter/#MedTwitter and #ScienceTwitter during this pandemic — which, I reiterate, is not over. Sharing here so I can still find this after the #twitpocalypse (#twitastrophy?). Any suggestions about who to follow here greatly appreciated. Where do I find #MedicalMastodon?

Not religious at all #atheist but... "And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Musk" #twitpocalypse

So here's Elon's brave new approach to keeping Twitter alive: Have his other companies buy LOTS of ads to compensate for the companies who are fleeing.

For a truer sense of the true depth of the shit Elon's in:

#TwitterImplosion #TwitPocalypse

for a while the $8 check will be fun for fascists who want to own the libs, for trolls who want to use the appearance of trustworthiness as a joke, and for scammers who want to use appearance to steal money.

but pretty soon everyone will realize the check mark means nothing. #twitter #musk #twitpocalypse

Pretty sure it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out
