Say what you will about Elon’s management style, but before he took over all you guys posted was “ugh another day on this hell site” and now you’re all like “ah twitter the extraordinary place where I met all my best friends, started my career, had sex for the first time”

44 billion well spent.
I've started to see "This Tweet is unavailable" messages. If you refresh enough times, it works. This was a particularly ironic example.

nooo one blows like Gaston churns and grows like Gaston where he'll make landfall, nobody knows but Gaston for there's no storm that's named quite as manly, perfect, but will he be strong? will you have to flee with your whole family? or just move the furniture off of the lawn?

I‘m going backpacking/hiking for 5 days. Maybe 6. Although I now live 2,400 miles from BC’s mountains, their call is “a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied.” h/t John Masefield, Sea-Fever
