@elonmusk If you can even consider voting for nearly any Republican, you are showing your own ignorance of the facts of their speech and their actions. Whatever else you may be, uneducated and uninformed are at the top of the list. You've just made my decision for me.

@elonmusk As has been said in so many ways before: destroying things is easy, but building things is hard. The #Twitter that you pretend to want to build will be the lasting legacy of your life, whether you want it to be or not. Get it right, if you can. We will let you know if you did.

So many Republicans are among the worst of humanity, and they will continue to behave badly until we punish them for it. The only punishment that works is removing them from their platforms. When you vote, here is a short list you can start with: nytimes.com/interactive/20…

@elonmusk Your (literal) job is to make sure it's worth what you ask. The jury is out, and deliberating.

@Danak65 Before you sign up for #Tribel, you should strongly consider looking into their business model; from my understanding, privacy is not even a remote consideration, and everything you do will be tracked and sold. Good luck.

@chipfranklin Please take a few minutes to read this article by @davetroy It explains much that you (and I) initially missed about this. davetroy.medium.com/no-elon-and-ja…

@marcorubio Violence like this is never acceptable. Beliefs like yours are also never acceptable.

A word to @ladygaga to highlight the impact she has, and reaffirm why she is a very necessary person in our world. This is an excerpt from an essay written by my 17 year-old, who felt these thoughts were important enough to include in her college admission applications:

@dogsdoingmath Humanity is a self-defining problem: the world will not get better until *we* get better. The kind people in this thread reveal that kindness still exists. Curate your life, not just Twitter. Keep those who add value, let the others go. You exist, so there's hope for us all.

@StevieOakley Services like these do not standardize playback volume at all, and do not allow for volume normalization for dramatic shows that have large variances in volume (normal for movies). They don't care about consumers enough to know how dumb their behavior is, and they never will.

@caitie I'm very glad for your remarkable achievement. Please accept my apology for possibly raining on your parade. Please consider advising this CEO that the original mission of Microsoft was to enhance productivity, something that has fallen by the wayside over the last 15 years.

There has been much discussion lately about CNN an their apparent changes in direction. Read this thread, and learn more about CNN and the continuing reverberations of #CitizensUnited It's a sobering view; a call to remind us to vote, while our votes still count for something.

@nihil_ad_rem @runewarrior The average person cannot function under the load of such deep and intense feelings. It's not their fault, but they shouldn't try to mask their discomfort with the platitudes you mention. Seek out those who can be real, without expecting you to be whatever it is they can handle.

@paulinaporizkov Passing you in LAX years ago, I thought you were absolutely stunning in a simple white blouse and jeans. In this photo, I see the same stunning woman again. Watching you tackle your recent challenges, it seems your character has consistently been overlooked. Their mistake!
