Another Twitter/X suspension:

@Flipboard
“We have decided to suspend our activity on Twitter/X… we believe it’s vital to align our social presence with platforms that share our values for advancing trusted journalism, expert voices and quality information. This is one of the reasons we’re moving away from Twitter/X and investing our energy in #Mastodon and other open social platforms.”

Just a little something to brighten your day, as we zoom towards Thanksgiving:

While I personally stopped tweeting in May, it was clear that now was the time for Flipboard to stop tweeting as well.

This is a sad outcome given that Twitter was the platform we got started on in 2010 and I was a board member there with Jack, Ev and Dick. But that Twitter is gone now. And the future is the open social web.

I'll be voting Biden/Harris they are the better choice. Not perfect by any means no one is. Still the best choice.

The Carters have more character and class than drumpf, his children, and his supporters will ever have in a million lifetimes.

Good. Trump has no shame and no heart. https://secondnexus.com/trump-jimmy-rosalynn-james-carter?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

Please enjoy this video of my dog rolling under the neighbors laundry air vent

I hope for world peace and also that all the people I like will eventually be on one social media platform.

Dear rich people, If the rest of us decide we want into your bunker, you'll be fucked. Jsyk.

"Let me put it this way: if you made $10,000 a week – a princely sum by the standards of most people – you would have to work every week from the year of Jesus’s birth until this week to earn over a billion dollars. To earn as much as Elon Musk’s net worth at that rate – currently $180bn, according to Forbes – you’d have to work every week for more than a third of a million years – that is, since before Homo sapiens first emerged in Africa....

... billionaires are a menace to the rest of us: their sheer political size warps our public life. Disproportionately older, white and male, they function as unelected powers, a sort of freelance global aristocracy who are too often trying to reign over the rest of us. Some critics think that the supergiant tech corporations that have spawned so many modern billionaires operate in ways that resemble feudalism more than capitalism, and, certainly, plenty of billionaires operate like the lords of the Earth while campaigning to protect the economic inequality that made them so rich and makes so many others so poor. They use their power in arbitrary, reckless and often environmentally destructive ways."
