No worries :).

Man, we'll never see a successful space colony in our lifetimes.

Or a space colony at all. :(

Nowhere near the same wavelength of light that Earth looks like Earth with.

But still cool af.

The game is now, once again, whether or not Trump can rally enough grassroots support to circumvent any aversions Murdoch might have to re-platforming him on Fox. Just like 2015/2016.

Twitterers have also been claiming that Trump can't tweet because it undermines a clause of his TRUTH Social contract forbidding him from using Twitter, but I can't find any proof of that.

Best case scenario is that the combination of Trump + World Cup drives enough traffic to Twitter to crash the servers, if only for a while. Hopefully it's long enough of an outage to destroy any remaining interests of advertisers.

But now... IMAGINE. Solely imagine. Definitely DO NOT do this.

1. Learn how to install and operate a virtual machine (VM) operating system on a device you've never used for anything else before. Maybe a $100-ish Raspberry Pi.

2. Purchase a VPN membership, and learn how to use it through your VM.

3. Also in the VM, and with a VPN, write and execute Python scripts (hint: the Selenium code library for Firefox is pretty damn good) to drive a web crawler around Twitter. You don't even have to do anything suspicious or inflammatory or partisan. Increased activity alone will help bork the place.

4. Fuck Elon Musk.

Something new every day, but don't even have to change the verbiage

All of my social media usage in the last few weeks has been dedicated to ruining Elmo's Twitter. Both his personal @, and the site in its entirety.

When it's done, I'll be back. Won't be long now.
