I don't use Xitter, what functionality does it have that's not stupidly easy to implement? As far as I can tell the only thing that Xitter has is a userbase - and when they drive them away they'll have nothing [but debt].

Rip the bandaid off! Get this shit closed down and be done with it.

But at the same time they're encouraging the loss of jobs to bring down inflation. Everyone likes to talk about interest rate rises cooling inflation but they never mention that the cooling effect is largely a function of lost employment.

It was pointless, which is a reason to have not taken them, but they're back now so it's kind of a moot point. Just a "don't do it again" situation.

You would think so, but companies generally believe that they own the right to your full potential output - not just the tasks that they set you.

Somehow the "everybody has the right to an opinion" message got applied to objective topics

Yeah, the house I grew up in had so many frogs that you couldn't watch TV or make a phone call at night, it was like having the worst tinnitus every night. Frogs are cute, but that was too much!

You don't get kids from the asshole...

And depending on where you are the biological parents may be able to reclaim them at some point. My sister looked into it in my country and determined that they never really became your children, you were just taking care of them until they either grew up or their parents came back for them. I can't imagine taking care of a child for years, treating it like your own, and then a stranger just coming and taking it back (and possibly taking it into a terrible environment).

All the adopted kids I grew up with were adopted from overseas and now I understand why.

I assume they want the states to have full autonomy over their education for starters. RIP kids in the south, they'll never even be taught how badly they've been screwed.

He won't say that - he's incapable of telling the truth.

Humanity is a shithole. Social media is a cross-section.
