For anyone following me, I'm going to uninstall twitter. It has become increasingly less useful for news since Elon Musk took it over. I think most of the people I communicate with know how to find me if they need to. Cheers.

This tragedy hardly made the news, yet a missing submersible with 5 folks who went to explore the wreckage of the Titanic is front & center on all major channels and publications.
The Greek coastguard claimed it didn’t intervene when a boat carrying asylum seekers and refugees capsized last week because those on board refused help, leaving as many as 750 people to drown. Activists say Greece delayed aid as those on board pleaded for help for 15+ hours.

The central problem with any such debate involving a real scientist is that @joerogan's audience is sooooo dumb (& so statistically unsophisticated) that they will never figure out who won the argument.
This is a non answer. I challenged you publicly because you publicly quote tweeted and agreed with that dogshit vice article. If you’re really serious about what you stand for, you now have a massive opportunity for a debate that will reach the largest audience a discussion

This is such a perfect example of how media bias really works. It is deeply built into the entire professional model of this sort of reporting--from the preference for conflict to racist norms--and it comes out effortlessly and unexamined in framing like this.
Ummm… So Channel 9 are now officially referring to The Voice as “The Divisive Voice To Parliament” in their news reports? ??? 🙄 Just disgraceful.

FYI there’s a fake account on here impersonating me and going viral. The Twitter CEO has engaged it, boosting visibility. It is releasing false policy statements and gaining spread. I am assessing with my team how to move forward. In the meantime, be careful of what you see.

Here's you, celebrating the passage of the Trump tax cuts in 2017, which were largely a $2 trillion giveaway for corporations and the rich — just part of the $7 trillion added to the U.S. debt under Trump.
Do you have an extra $800 lying around? That's how much more you owe as your share of the national debt since January 12th—when I first called on President Biden to negotiate. His delay has real consequences. His default would be even worse.
