The FTC has, historically, been one of the more spineless agencies in the US. Elon has nothing to fear that a few lawyers can’t fix. And calling Twitter a ‘town hall that we love’ shows the bias of the article and the source. Twitter has be

Twitter has been a toxic bubble for over a decade. They’re not in the habit of hiring people who don’t fit in with that culture. Same thing happened to Reddit. There are consequences to such negative environments, one being that better run

I wouldn’t hire anyone from SF, no. I would be very wary of the culture they come from and it’s intolerance to anything outside of that bubble. As for Trump followers, or conservatives in general, not being ‘politically oppressed’, why do y

Despite what a few naysayers have stated in the comments, the Rings of Power show does NOT diverge from Tolkien’s work. Forums have been flooded with trolls who have no knowledge of Tolkiens work outside of Jackson’s film trilogy. For a det

As always, an incredible amount of disinformation regarding B12. The fascination with B12 is largely to do with non-vegans looking for a reason to eat meat. They ‘think’ B12 is the proof they need to continue their lifestyle. Here’s all you

Twitter has long been unusable for me. It definitely manipulates information in a negative way. I’ve had accounts in the past just to follow artists and watched as certain people vanished from my timeline. Is this malicious? Is it just bad
