Left Twitter when musk bought it. Never looked back. Never regretted it. Honestly can't understand why people ( at least those with decency and integrity) stay.
if you still use Twitter please understand that you are enabling and supporting this.
It’s only going to get worse, so you may as well leave now and start rebuilding your “following” anywhere else.

For the last few days on X, people (mainly women, and sometimes children) have had nonconsensual images of them in swimsuits (or much worse) requested by users and created by Grok.
Musk's only apparent response thus far has been to crack jokes about it.

For those who don't yet know @davidjolly.bsky.social, watch this. I am so excited for his campaign and can't wait to vote for him as our next Governor. Until the election, pay attention and get to know him and if possible, support his campaign.
You can’t tell people how to feel. We can argue about the numbers, but it doesn’t change the fact that people are screaming for change.
Be a part of change. Join our campaign!

I've long thought that if a politician really wanted to tap into a populist base they should attack scammers, robocalls and the like. Forget the price of eggs, forget "affordability." This is the real stuff that troubles, hurts, annoys, everyone on a daily basis!
I wrote this for the @nytimes.com: Scammers are calling seniors more than 50 times a day. Some who get scammed wind up with weird charges on their Medicare and mysterious packages on their porches

I know of several European Anti-fascist groups - they were organized under an organization named SHAEF and were commanded by some guy named Eisenhower. I confess, I have family connections to this group - my father served under Eisenhower and fought fascists. Does that make me ANTIFA ?
