Half of Twitter’s 100 top advertisers have pulled their placements since Elon Musk took over, costing the company tens of millions of dollars in monthly revenues.

In the midst of all this wreckage one thing is obvious: If Twitter is going to be saved, Musk isn’t the person to do it. 1/2

which is freely available in PDF.

I must recommend, if you like tinkering, that you get a #RaspberryPi computer and a hat with sensors (like the #sensehat) because it's much fun to do physical computing and you can learn a lot about building functions and playing with classes in #Python

One important goal of Republicans is to end public education as a right. They'll bleed and starve public schools, funneling all monies to private/charter schools, and deprive working families of education forever--like they did through colonization up to the 1900s.

The Memphis Holler on twitter: "No matter how you twist it, this is a slap in the face to public, under resourced schools."
