106

I spent the whole day at my workshop, making sawdust, logged off and enjoying a local holiday. I arrive home and see that at long last the cheeto is fired and then I decide to go over my daily allowance of Twitter just to check out what's going on.

My feed is full of the most radioactive shitty excuses for human beings, one after the other. I just opened it right now to check it again, and here's what I got, in this order:

Ann Coulter, Mike Pompeo, Kyle Rittenhouse, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Mike Lee, Jim Jordan, Nikki Haley, Donald Trump Jr., Josh Hawley, Lauren Boebert, Donald J Trump Posts from Truth Social, Greg Abbot.

To what do I owe the pleasure of being presented with this absolute eldritch nightmare of a blunt rotation? Is this happening to anybody else? This is on my phone's Firefox browser, because I've reached the daily app time allowance, same as on my PC's browser.

too many neurons, getting CTE likely involves leaving home

get yourself a prion disease, it'll be better for you than twitter

Sorry to kill the vibe. Your comment was funny but I must now info dump.

I watched a video of a man in the final dying stage of a prion disease. Really horrific stuff. Lost all motor control so he was just shaking violently, wide eyed, in severe anguish. But even within that, it was inspiring that the man decided to give his carer/family permission to record him for the sake of the advancement of science and knowledge. Truly selfless. I think about it a lot.

That said, I wouldn't recommend looking for it.
