Just a reminder that the "largest drone manufacturing factory on earth" is located in Alabuga, Russia. The Russians sell these to Iran according to debris found yesterday in Dubai.. The west refuses to give Ukraine the tools to destroy it, after 4 years and many thousands dead

we criticize hollywood for lazy tropes but our two main antagonists right now is a former kgb agent with a penchant for poisoning and an emerald mine heir who wants to live on mars. if these were bond villains they’d be dismissed as caricature

The bird is freed. LOL
A fake Eli Lilly account that paid 8 whole ass dollars for a verified account announced yesterday that Ely Lilly was no longer charging for insulin tanked the company's value by 17 BILLION dollars overnight.
This is a major problem with our world and nobody's talking about it. They don't even notice, but they will suffer from its consequences.

there are now tens of thousands fewer journalists because of social media. i’m not tech-phobic but the story of social media is not (only) about tech but about the crushing of countless stable jobs (and the subsequent disinformation hellscape we live in) to profit very few people

The hospitals are full of sick kids. The "tripledemic" is looming. Thanks 2 Republican obstruction, we never funded childcare. And global warming is killing our planet. There's zero reason (aside from boss' ego) 2 make these problems worse by forcing workers back into the office!
Scrambling to find childcare because my capricious manchild of a new boss just declared that I’ll lose my job if I don’t come into the office tomorrow after years of remote work… le epic
Wish I could face electoral loss as wittily as @kipthekelly
Congrats to Governor Lombardo. In a state with so many questions, it will be amazing to have a leader who refuses to take any of them.

elon musk and mark zuckerberg are showing the world that meritocracy is indeed a lie and that they didn’t work harder or smarter than everyone else contrary to popular opinion. it’s great.

I was born here. I’m 5th and 7th generation on different family branches. It didn’t use to be like this. I mean, Texas USED to have Ann Richards!

We regret to inform you that we will not be giving away insulin, a publicly funded invention that was given away by its creator to be given away to people so they don’t die. xitter.cf/LillyPad/status/159081…

the tech industry in one tweet. take the old system that worked fine, ruin it, then create a new system that is less intuitive, functions worse, and then charge the user a fee for it.
A lot of folks have asked about how you'll be able to distinguish between @TwitterBlue subscribers with blue checkmarks and accounts that are verified as official, which is why we’re introducing the “Official" label to select accounts when we launch.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The rollout of the “Official” badge has now ended, and the badge is no longer shown on Twitter profiles. Elon Musk has confirmed that he “just killed it.” twitter.com/elonmusk/statu…

One potential takeaway from tonight is that the US is a center left country with a gerrymandering problem. If republicans are going to turn in a historically poor midterm performance now in this moment, a lot of talking heads need to re-evaluate their priors on this stuff.

Guy breaks into your house, steals your stuff, rapes & murders your spouse, tortures your kids. You chase them out of the living room but they blow up the bathroom, 'annex' the kitchen, & hold your kids hostage. What would your demands be?

it’s not about who wins or loses today it’s about the deafening silence from white men in corporate positions of power in this city on literally any issue at all
