Elon Musk is wholly unsuited to the responsibility of running Twitter.
We need to be able to hold the stewards of online communities to account.
In the meantime, I'll be over on Mastodon: home.social/@angusthomas

What just happened?
This, I think:
- Liz Truss was told yesterday by Graham Brady that she’s toast, but time is needed to find a successor, so she must stay as zombie PM until then
- it’s possible she tried to fight back, possibly by threatening to call an immediate GE /1.

So happy I have now a term for this major issue in my life. Here's a small part of my current tsundoku pile.

The government has lost control of the economy. It’s going to mean higher mortgages and higher prices.

Unfunded tax cuts for the one per cent.
They must recall parliament today and abandon this act of economic self-harm.
