Kind of a bare-bones collection this week. My internet failed on election night, and it was out for two days before the provider could get a person out here to restore it. So my access to Twitter was very limited for a couple of days.
Still, I managed to get a TOTW done during the Great Texas Power Outage of 2021, so I was able to manage what you see here today. Fortunately, I know the TOTW community will pick up the clack—they always do. So don’t neglect the comments. That’s usually where the really good stuff is, anyway.
BTW, most of us on Twitter have been kind of obsessed with the hilarious spectacle of Elon Musk stepping on an apparently endless supply of rakes as he tries to turn Twitter into---you know, I don’t think he has any idea what he wants Twitter to be. Anyway, I want to extend infinite thanks to ygdrasil, who sent in this absolutely perfect summary of what’s happenng at the home of the big blue bird. It’s a long thread, but it’s a true work of art. I’ll postthe first few parts here, and I encourage you to do yourself a favor and read the whole thing.
Here we go...
x Elon: Gimme. *rips tape off*
Twitter exec: I really don't recommend you do that.
Elon: Before I open this, cut a hole in the top and give the squirrels cocaine.
Twitter exec: Even the rabid ones?
Elon: Especially the rabid ones. It's not like you can tell the difference. — Allison Hantschel (@Athenae) November 11, 2022
x Elon: Verify all the squirrels.
Twitter exec: I ask again whether perhaps we might verify just one squirrel, see how it goes. The FTC ...
Elon: You're fired. You, verify all the squirrels.
Custodian: Um, today's my first day, sir ...
Squirrels: *ominous chittering* — Allison Hantschel (@Athenae) November 11, 2022
x Squirrels: *tweeting 'Abigail Adams could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch'*
Squirrels: *tweeting 'I declare war on Switzerland'*
Squirrels: *gnawing Elon's foot, foam-ily*
Elon: Can someone help me get these back in the bin? Also you work 80 hours a week now. In a row. — Allison Hantschel (@Athenae) November 11, 2022
Read the rest (you don’t need a Twitter account—just click on the date at the top of the first tweet). You’ll thank me.
