Can't touch your Tax history then.

Why would they? They are already crushing it with Last Week Tonight. No need to mess with a winning formula.

You need your full range of motion in the Delta quadrant.

I think him opting out of dementia, does not mean he didn't think life was worth living. He didn't seem depressed, just didn't want to put himself and his family through dementia.

It's scarey how much of the popular conservative media in the US seems to be paid off by Russia.

But you see it everywhere you look, there were just news reports of Nicholas Sarkozy bending over backwards to talk about how reasonable he thinks Putin is and how France needs Russia.

Fucking crazy, but some people really do listen to this shit and end up having their world views shaped by what they see as their trusted sources.

Definitely less infinite scrolling, which has probably been good for me time management wise.

But yeah, just generally less content and posts. Also find myself ending up on reddit when doing internet searches for questions.

There has been value generated by Twitter that will outlive it though.

They established and refined an interface that other ventures like blue sky and mastodon are utilizing, and they delivered open source frameworks like Bootstrap will long outlive Twitter, and have brought value to the broader web development ecosystem.

The nice thing about our economic system is that value is rarely completely destroyed, the money he paid for Twitter didn't cease to exist, it went to former Twitter shareholders.

They may be using it in more productive ways than he ever would.
