Yeah I saw the video, walked into someone’s house while they were gardening in the front and walked around. The family were actually remarkably polite, telling him to leave. They had two young kids in the house too.
He didn’t leave (was with a group of two others I think), sat on the couch and put his feet up on their table.
It was not a clever or funny “prank”, was probably very scary for that family.
Twitter seems to be actively making people follow people/organisations at their own behest. Or so it seems to me, anyway. Been seeing accounts that I do not follow pop up in the following section for a while now but didn’t pay attention. I have just now unfollowed about 10, including SpaceX, some right wing nutjobs and a Syrian news account. Wtf.
Other than occasional tech unreliability, I dont see too much different with the things on my feed. But I use it for reading only and with very rare exceptions dont every engage anyone on it. But the quality of discussion on the threads of people I follow has gone to shit. It’s now full of the dumbest possible versions of any conversation in a way that didnt used to be in the things and people I follow.
This Rogan-RFK Jr - debate me bro shit going on today is just mind melting dumb. Really really the dumb person’s idea of how smart people engage with ideas.
Im not on twitter anymore so I cant say for sure but the people I saw complaining yesterday said it was counting any post you scroll past as having been “read”.
Is this temporary or permanent (probably a matter of time before it is, if it’s not now)? Hope I don’t have to open a Twitter account to have a look at some stuff here and there.
