    I've read online Yaccarino was in rehearsals up fronts when this first broke.

    He's stress testing her.

    It's a plush toy, isn't it? And the video is from years ago?
    At least that's what I got from comments on a YouTube search.

    Twitter is still up and running? I thought it was going to die when Musk took it over?

    And someone once posted a video of a beheading here.

    Lots of stuff to rip on Elon for, but stupidity happens all the time.

    Did the SJ algorithm promote that into a “Suggested for you” feed so you’d see it while you were reading the baseball thread?

    So 24 hours after posting that Twitter will be for free speech even if it costs him money, Musk acceded to a request/demand from Turkish President Erdogan to censor posts by critics of his government one day before that country's presidential election. Has anyone ever pantsed himself as thoroughly as Musk has since he bought Twitter? He's lost at least $20 billion to show the world his ass on a daily basis.

    Golly, I wonder which party ElmoTwitter will favor in the 2024 U.S. election.

    You don't need to "slow roll" it. He could have just said "Sorry, can't help you." Make Erdogan censor the internet access himself the way totalitarian governments do it.
