It’s a rough morning, watching friends and former students getting fired from Twitter.
I’m glad I’ve got this place to spend time in instead. Thank you, lovely micro.blog folks.
Well, I suppose the good thing about the reports that Revue (owned by Twitter) will be gone by the end of the year, dead by order of Musk, is that I now have licence to officially abandon my neglected newsletter there…
Working late at the office, adding a feast of links to Moodle, for the journalism students to ”enjoy”…
Well, it might have been chucking it down all day, and the wind has thrown things around the garden, but given how dry the summer was, I figure the plants could really do with it.
Enjoying Halloween on a warm but wet night.
A modest haul of sweets for the girls, but good fun in good company.

So, it looks like the deal is done, and Elon Musk has acquired Twitter.
It’s certainly the end of the beginning: the legal drama will now be replaced by management drama, and this is arguably the start of Twitter’s second act. Interesting times, indeed.
