These settings remove the blatant noise from my mentions, but it turns out there's just a lot of actual very confused people debating whether people should be treated with respect.

seeing reports that elon musk was immediately booed off a comedy club stage tonight in san francisco. very weird-- usually you need to be in a tesla to crash and burn that quickly

Submitted our business name change request to IRS nearly two years ago, and it still has not taken effect. Calling them on the phone (the only way to verify EIN) results in "we're too busy, call again another time." Guess I'll just keep calling every day?

I had to do the same to verify my 2020 returns. I had to file my 2021 returns even tho my 2020 weren't processed yet.

Eventually I started calling every day the minute the office opened, and one day finally got through with only a 2 minute wait.

1Password isn’t perfect but there is nothing, to me, that would make paying for Bitwarden (no, I do not want to self-host my password manager. That’s how you get ants) better than paying for something from people I’ve known for 15 years. But that’s just me.

"that's how you get ants" 😂😂😂

I agree tho, the new 1Password has some issues compared to the previous version, but it's still better than the alternatives.

Maybe we should all start referring to Elon as "she" and waiting for her to correct us, then we'll see who's forcing their pronouns on who 😇

shout out to everybody who bought a Tesla to save on gas or show off or whatever and is now trying to figure out what to do with the fact that they’re driving around in a $45,000 MAGA hat

Lately my job seems to be about making sure Mastodon doesn’t turn into a denial-of-service attack on my servers. 🙂 Sorry for the flakiness today, partially caused by how we were handling a flood of messages from Mastodon.technology’s impeding shutdown. Fixed the issue.

wow I just checked my logs and I've also been getting about 1800 delete requests per day from it.

By my count that means about 6 more days of this before they finish sending deletes for all the accounts.

Whatever Twitter used to be for me died over the weekend. We'll have more reporting + thoughts in @platformer today but in the meantime here's also this!

Matt Taibbi and Elon Musk rummaged through millions of emails & Slack messages from pre-Musk Twitter & all they found was employees deliberating & consulting w/each other about how to fairly apply & enforce rules. But I get it..

To a rich white man, that seems very oppressive

Life hack: give yourself 8 to 12 hours of alone time in the morning to mentally prepare for the day.
