I’ve got 5 if you have more people that need them

Screenshot of text: "As Musk and Yaccarino try and turn the company around, there are growing signs they want to make X a shopping destination. For instance, X managers are considering ways of using direct messages on the platform to offer one-click checkout to X users, according to three people familiar with the situation."

This will definitely not be used for scams. Not at all.

I tried to get a Google Voice number a couple of months ago and literally couldn't get one. I tried every state, picked random area codes from low population areas, and couldn't find a single number available. So it seems like it might already be killed for new users?

Now just saw a character flip through a book by Terry Pratchett. 🥹

Well since they JUST rebranded to X…he’s technically not lying…. 🙄

I took it off my menus a while ago - I don’t even have an icon at all anymore.

Just started Good Omens 2 on Amazon Prime today… @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com hasn’t been able to do promotion with the strike so I’ll do my small part. This is SO GOOD! If you even slightly enjoyed the first series or the book, do yourself a favor and watch the sequel now!

Ooh that's helpful! Thanks! I can also turn them off altogether!

I'm starting with adjusting to 10 likes though - see if that strikes a nice balance.

I'm hoping that will get better as more folks get invites and (hopefully) hop on

My feed right now is fairly quiet from people I actually know and mostly filled with posts and replies from a couple of famous folks I like. I do wish that there was a way to not see every reply they give because they're interacting with fans which is great, but not super interesting to me.

Living near Regent’s Park (and the US Ambassador’s residence) seems cool until there is a Presidential visit and you get to enjoy the sounds of constant helicopters circling for 2 days straight… 🚁🚁🚁🤫

No lie, I literally had the shower thought 2 days ago of "What was the greatest thing before sliced bread?"

I now know it was apparently wrapped bread! Now I wonder what the greatest thing was before that...

My other major thing is, my Twitter social graph and my Instagram social graph are very different and the topics I post about are very different. I don’t know if I really want to merge the two 😬

I’ve missed having a place to post important thoughts like this:

This coffee carafe is wrong. Don’t use red to indicate “open” and blue to indicate “closed”!

This feels like going to a college reunion...scrolling through finding people and being like "Oh hey! You're here! How fun!" 💗

In like, 15 years and only if you pay for a premium tier?

👋 I just made it! Happy to see the product crew!

Wow. So Jack sold Twitter and then just rebuilt it? This feels exactly like the old place from a UI perspective...let's see how it goes!
