I know some people don’t like the last, but think it’s good when groups of people profit from providing an enormous social good, like scalable clean energy, or carbon removal. That's capitalism operating as it should, to serve the social good. I hope it does here.

Twitter's brand is all about the creative form of ephemerality. This chaos monkey feature has much to teach us about impermanence! A new kind of meditation, integrated into our social space!
I'm sure movie night at Twitter features only the first and last scenes of the movie...
