I hope that kid whose name was smeared all over X tonight sues the shit out of the clout-chasing hacks who profited off putting him in very real danger. It’s time for more defamation lawsuits. This isn’t “free speech” and there should be accountability. Funders should step up.
“Mom, what does ‘You’ve been screwing the milkman’ mean?’” The problem with iTunes is that it understands explicit content to mean ‘swear words’ and so now my 9yo daughter who likes jazz and musical theatre has become obsessed with Chicago. 🫠
The rumor mill on X is extraordinary dangerous right now. Prominent RW influencers have decided the Brown mass shooting was a targeted assassination. Now they’re naming a Palestinian perpetrator. When we used the term “rumor” in our work the Twitter Files boys accused us of playing language games. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreic4s6eoovzxurpflpsofpsobiyo6a7l4urss4rb5ksrjg4rplhqxa
It’s a fairly different skill set & takes a lot longer. Also it’s nice to start from having 800k+ followers/ major institutional brand & name recognition.

Just to be clear: if 'no one was ready' a lot of people fucked up, bc those of us who work on this laid out what was going to happen 8yrs ago. The twofold issue that 1)it's not just a tech problem, and 2) Big Tech allowed itself to be ref-worked into spinelessness. [www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/t...](

I was reading that story of people dying of cholera and was reminded of media treating crazy BS — like that “DataRepublican” crank claiming she found “$100B in fraud” using “her AI”—as serious. I wonder if [@newsnation.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy](

I had a really nice weekend: a block party, one kid’s 🎻 recital, another kid’s 🎹 & voice recital (she’s a trip — shy IRL, but a *performer* on a stage), actually getting the ornaments on the 🎄, and a fun date night to a debate where after we found a great Puerto Rican restaurant. Felt v lucky.
Those liars scammed and deluded thousands of people with their “censorship complex” hoax, feeding a victim complex and giving an online faction a boogeyman to rail against. It’s hard to explain just how much bullshit they made up. The Wikipedia article on the Twitter Files doesn’t tell the story. RE:
