It's Musk's Twitter. He can do what he wants.

And what he wants to do right now is confirm what we've all known - it's never been about free speech. It's been about the speech he approves of.

Journalists who cover Elon Musk have been suspended on Twitter tonight: @Donie@twitter.com O'Sullivan from CNN, Aaron Rupar and the Washington Post's @drewharwell@twitter.com.

Rupar tells me he has "no idea" why it happened.

Reuters covering long wait times for gender dysphoria treatment is a good sign.

This goes beyond waiting for blockers or hormones, as the article makes clear. It includes access to any sort of counseling on this issue, w/ young people waiting multiple yrs to even talk to a therapist.

Aha, we’ve reached the “mod loses his shit and starts adding new rules because he had a bad day, banning people who notice and posting angry tirades” stage of the webforum meltdown arc

Twitter has become a website I use to look up people's mastodon handles.

Twitter is a fucking dumpster fire.

They blocked the official mastodon account.

They blocked several prominent reporters today.

They're blocking any links that are http(s)://website/@username to stifle mastodon adoption.

This is what "transparency", and "freedom of speech" mean to Elorgh Mask.

If you were wondering, "Is Elmo still having content on Twitter which mentions the word Mastodon and/or links to an article about Mastodons flagged with content warnings?", Magic 8 Ball says, "Yes.":

Every news outlet should stand up a Mastondon instance for their reporters & staff.

It’ll be great to see GivennameFamilyname@mastodon.famousnewspaper.com or whatever domain they want to use.

Built in verification. Every reporter for the Washington Post on a washpo domain. Every reporter for the New York Times on an NYTimes domain. Etc, etc.

Plus the “local” feed for each instance becomes a feed of all the posts from that institution mixed together — providing extra discovery.

TFW you have to reiterate to the recruiter that you don't want to maintain rack mount servers, you want employment as one

Heeey so how’s everyone doing? Having a real one tonight?

For no particular reason I will also share this guide I wrote for #Twitter expats getting started on #Mastodon 👀

Remember folks, be kind to your neighbors, mods, and instance owners but no quarter for fascists.

May the servers be robust 🙏 🖖
