That's kind of genius.

I always figured one motivation of Mush (and Saudi Arabia as it turns out, probably others) for buying Twitter was either to reduce it's already limited capacity to inform with facts or just to outright destroy it. At least one of those will be achieved. The best action anyone can take is just to get off Twitter ASAP. Substack is a great alternative coming out with chat. Entrepreneurs will complete gladly for Twitters users.

Amee, it will take more than the demise of Twitter to get rid of me.

I have bailed on Twitter because I was getting more hate tweets than anything from my friends. It took so much time to mute those hate filled tweets, I needed to deactivate my account.

A go fund me is a great idea.

Keep posting here, because that is where I will get my Amee fix.

Not gonna happen unless you want to start a whole new entity. Regardless-of meeting a goal to buy a dead bird one still has to have the managerial and technical skills to run the ship. When Musk complains about losing g revenue he is not talking billions of dollars , it will take a long time to force him to sell or to moderate fairly.

I am being realistic not negative here. It would be better to have a boycott for a day to show Musk just how big the market is , so he would really become another Truth Social if liberals centralist and progressives boycotted a day . Maybe it’s time is over

I agree No Facebook. I think the tension is too high until after the elections and we see how the beast turns out before a practical solution to a fair forum emerges.

I know it’s tough for people like you who need the immediacy of information.

When Oliver Cromwell terrorized Ireland the Irish grew high hedgerows and cutout the interior so people could meet and talk safely and children could be taught. There will be a solution , there always is.

I downloaded Substack because this is where I can read Amee comments. I love my Amee emails, but I can’t see comments in an email.

As for Twitter, it was fun while it lasted. No more DC Sundae, Always Ashley, or Lisa Beth Designs. Those are who I used to call “The Big Three.” Note that all Twitter Libtards know who those three are. Sundae mixed humor and politics, Ashley had “Single girl jokes”, and Lisa Beth, my favorite, was in-your-face liberal. I’m going to miss them.

Nah. Just tank it and leave it for dead by closing our accounts the instant Musk readmits Trump.
