    And now, a public service announcement:

    If you post from Elon’s app, you come in with an X link that doesn’t embed. If you post from X dot com via a web browser, you find that the website automatically redirects to twitter dot com and you never see Elon’s buzzy letter.

    Make your posting choices carefully.

    Didn’t Trump’s social media guy have access to his Twitter account? How does the prosecution prove Trump himself wrote any DMs? IP address of the phone?

    Why the interest in tattoos? For possible ID purposes? Or are they looking for potentially subversive ones?

    Gangs. Even up here in the sticks, they have several redneck rival groups, so they need to know they're not providing the means for an in-house rumble. There was some sort of weird owl call that guys were making to each other the first night I was there, and my bunkie said it was gang-related.

    West Side Story meets Deliverance.

    EDIT: And the officer actually asked "if I had any ink." And naive me said, "No, I didn't bring a pen." His reaction was priceless.

    The time of the post, IP addy, also GPS location. Trump's location was generally well known. That's part of why they went after his Twitter account, although I read today that there were also a number of DM's. As actively as Trump avoided texts and emails I'm a bit surprised about that, but it was Twitter and he was on it all the time. Probably never occurred to him.

    Trump's is obvious: The Gang Who Couldn't Shoot Straight.

    I was wondering why linking to a web version of X worked where posting from the app didn’t
