Sweet. Turns out you can't just buy your way to the mayor of LA. Yet, at least.

More of this please. The way to kill misinformation is to identify the people spreading nonsense. Everyone in this thread (including Joe Rogan, ahem) didn't know what they were talking about, but it didn't stop them from talking. Maybe next time they will?

1. It's astonishing how wrong so many of the predictions of a 'red wave/tsunami' were. I for one am fed up with pundits and commentators getting things so, so wrong & then just... moving on. So here's a thread/reminder of some of the worst midterm predictions. Read/share/enjoy:

Went to vote. Happy to support reproductive rights in California (duh), putting people who care about the community in charge (rather than billionaires), and leaders and laws that support people rather than corporations or money. Fingers crossed I wasn't alone out there.

If you're in LA and voting tomorrow (like me), please read through this before you go out there. You can still make your own decisions! But learn about your decisions first. https://t.co/Mdp2DpVeha

A billionaire making even more money by ruining people's lives? Can't say I'm very surprised I guess.

Someone in my neighborhood in LA has been painting colored hearts on sidewalks for the last few months. When I think about Twitter as a "town square," (which it's not, of course -- it's the back ad pages of an alt weekly) I think that's probably what I want my contribution to be.

Without stating your age, who was the first baseball player you loved?

I like Jack Antonoff in general, actually, but yeah. He's got a few different colors and he uses them.

Imagine if this level of detail was available in the Netflix interface to browse directly. The last time I was subscribed, there wasn't even a way to browse the library alphabetically. Maybe they've improved since then.

I joked earlier this year that I could probably throw together a great NFT game pitch deck and get a few million dollars for it. Looks like Will Wright did just that! Looking forward to seeing what comes out of this. https://t.co/6fVuUrr7pT
