Sunday Thoughts November 27, 2022

I have to say that I am only mildly looking forward to the great Twitter resurrection that Musk has promised this coming week. It has been so long since I have had an account, I no longer recall the details, like the e-mail I used or the handle. I think I was The_Z_Blog. I seem to recall that having been taken so I think I had to be something else, but who knows? I long ago deactivated the e-mail associated with it and I do not think I ever supplied a mobile number.

That means if Musk resurrects my account, I will never know about it. I am okay with that as I was never a big fan of Twitter. I have about a dozen accounts bookmarked that I look at during the day, so I expect no changes. Those bookmarked accounts will supply the necessary zaniness from the great resurrection. Of course, that assumes there is a race back to the platform by the millions of banned accounts. I bet many are like me and never return.

That said, it is amusing to see a billionaire dunking on the various scolds and crybabies that are now in a panic over the lack of moderation. I am told many of them signed up for Mastodon accounts only to find that there is no moderation there. They keep reporting people and now the mods there are banning these people for reporting people for mean speech. It would take a heart of stone not to laugh at it. There will be lots of salty tears next week.
