Twitter In The Wild, Birds On A Wire

I imagine this is what wild bird Twitter is like. Lots of birds on a wire talking about all sorts of things. It’s pretty cool to see all of them just hanging out and doing real-life tweets. Hopefully, they get along better than humans.

Good Friday To You Good People

Well it’s our friend Mr. Friday. I’m always glad when he’s here. He brings good stuff mostly like coffee and pay day. For those of us on Twitter things are a little worrisome with all the chaos. Who knows what will happen. Let’s hope for the best. Have a great day everyone. Love and peace.

Logging Off Twitter

I decided to log off Twitter for a while. Lots of doom scrolling going on there it is not good for me or anyone. It’s a platform that seems to be getting full of negative stuff. Of course, I will miss the breaking news there, but you know there are other ways of finding out about what’s going on in the world.

Forty-Four Billion

As you may or may not know Elon Musk who is the richest person in the world is going to buy Twitter for a staggering $44 billion. Some would say it’s his money and he has a right to do with it as he pleases. But just think about what could be done to change the world other than buying a social network built on binary code and algorithms.

Homes, hospitals, and schools could be built in developing countries. People could have food on their tables by investing in farms and food programs for the poor. Research to heal people of diseases could be done and so much more. Lots of stuff could be done and I wish his money could go to all that.

My dad was a big fan of Elon because of Tesla and SpaceX. I don’t have a great deal of faith in him owning something so powerful that can impact the minds and hearts of already fragile people. Of course, we will have to wait and see what will happen to Twitter and those who use it daily for connection and community.
