Well... this sucks, right? Nearly 88% of the company has left, through a combination of layoffs, firings, and folks deciding they've had enough. I'm deeply worried for the people who find themselves stuck there due to visa requirements. It must be a very scary situation to be in.

A lot of folks seem to believe the end of Twitter is approaching. The last few days have been full of reminiscing and sharing memes about the fall. Go out like as we lived, huh?

I created my first Twitter account in 2008 or so. A college friend of mine bugged me for weeks make an account on this new social media site, presumably so we could talk about what we had for lunch? I didn't get it. He did eventually persuade me though, and Twitter has been a big part of my life ever since.
