| 1624916192690315264 | @ftrain You seem to be losing touch with reality. Your hatred of Musk-owned seems completely irrational. It seems emotional and not rational. It’s the “safe space” mentality. | 0 |

| 1625180409200885768 | @ftrain "The real reason Twitter lies in ruins is..."This is but one of the many reasons why I stopped paying attention to Wired years ago. You cannot be serious with this. Twitter has vastly improved since the day Elon took over. But please, tell me more about Mastodon. 🙄 | 0 |
