Me On CBC!
Added 2022-11-12 17:17:14 +0000 UTCI had a fun conversation with CBC Day 6 about getting kicked off Twitter for making Elon mad! My segment starts around 12 minutes in. I do some DRAMATIC READINGS OF TWEETS. Also it turns out I say "oh gosh" a lot???

Finally got a chance.to listen to the podcast! Jeph, you sounded very intelligent and had some great thoughts/arguments against any single entity having that much influence over our ability to cyber-interact.

2022-11-14 18:25:15 +0000 UTCNo chance of a transcript, I guess? I ~can't~ shouldn't listen to podcasts at work.

2022-11-14 14:09:28 +0000 UTCI think the issue was, it wasn't Musk's company until Musk decided to buy it. It was also a relatively stable company. Now, not so much. To be fair, I wouldn't describe it as a good company. I did have a Twitter account at one point. Technically speaking, I probably still do. But it didn't provide enough value to justify retaining the account when I upgraded computers at some point. I say that because at the point in time I thought about it, I checked the prior computer I had been using, and it didn't have that account on it anywhere, despite having a backup of the computer before that apart from the computer before that's backup of prior computers. So it was apparently at least two entire upgrade cycles before I thought, "Hey, I wonder what's up with my Twitter account?" If I recall correctly, I left because 140 characters really isn't enough to say much of anything I'd want to say. But it's apparently plenty to say a bunch of mean things. I don't know how much of Twitter was toxic back in the day, but I encountered enough to turn me off. Admittedly, that threshold was certainly lower due to the low usability of the site.

2022-11-13 19:06:34 +0000 UTCyou do know that no matter how hard you suck Musk dick he still won't give you your very own million dollars, right?

2022-11-13 16:22:20 +0000 UTCAt the end of the day, Elon is still a billionaire and you are not. All I’m seeing and hearing from you is a whiny child. It’s his money and his company and he’ll do with it what he wills.

2022-11-13 08:22:32 +0000 UTCI had to listen to your bit. I heard it summarised as (and I reckon, if you were able to get away with it, you would have said) "Musk is a crybaby and he can go eat a bag of dicks".

2022-11-13 05:27:25 +0000 UTClol I was loving your tweets while they lasted. Thanks for the great followup on what happened once the twitter police caught up with your rampage :D

2022-11-13 03:19:00 +0000 UTCI’m picturing a late someone famous’ dead perfect Mouse impersonation & Jeph doing an “Air Pirates” adventures …

2022-11-13 02:16:44 +0000 UTCI assume you say ‘oh gosh’ exactly like goofy and I refuse to listen and break the illusion.
