Also, just for bonus points, great article by The Guardian on this historical origins of this particular TikTok trend -

If you've ever considered applying to work with us at Signal, now is a great time to get involved! We're just over here working on a plan to power the western hemisphere with the heat from our servers:
Brexit, if you don't laugh you'll cry...
Quoted @DorotheaBaur
I have finally installed #SignalApp but I am really not happy with the fact that apparently everyone who is on it already and who has my number, gets notified about that. Even contacts I have long deleted from my phone. Is this #privacy-friendly? Does anyone share my anger?
This is an interesting UX challenge for a privacy-focused chat app. Thoughts @moxie?
Quoted @jack
That said, having to ban an account has real and significant ramifications. While there are clear and obvious exceptions, I feel a ban is a failure of ours ultimately to promote healthy conversation. And a time for us to reflect on our operations and the environment around us.
No shit 🙄
Quoted @chrisgreybrexit
This is heart-breaking, but the call to "get it sorted" is misplaced. It's not happening because of sortable glitches in Brexit but because what Brexit does by design is to erect barriers with the EU. Those who warned of the consequences were called fearmongers. Now it's too late

Replying to @mikebutcher: But didn’t @sherylsandberg say the insurrection hadn’t been organised on Facebook? I’m confused...
Replying to @halhod: my builder just joined @signalapp. i think this is breaking through

Exclusive: Facebook has seen an increase in signals indicating potential future acts of violence associated with efforts to contest the result of the U.S. presidential election since the Capitol siege last week, a company spokeswoman told @Reuters

Love to see all the privacy love: Every time you open @signalapp there's a new '[XYZ] is on Signal!' alert 🤗🤗🤗
Quoted @MarcusRashford
Just had a good conversation with the Prime Minister. He has assured me that he is committed to correcting the issue with the food hampers and that a full review of the supply chain is taking place. He agrees that images of hampers being shared on Twitter are unacceptable.
Truly an excellent use of social media

This month US Americans got a small glimpse of what a coup might feel like, and they are rightly outraged. One might hope this would provoke some reflection on the *actual* coups that the US itself has perpetrated around the world. Here are some of them:

Whenever someone tells you that the stock market is efficient just point them at this chart caused by Elon Musk tweeting about a chat app with the same name as this healthcare company (now up 64,000% over past year).
