Great example of how weird Musk's plan to charge power users for verification is. AOC has 13.5 million followers. When she writes a tweet like this, it generates millions of impressions, creating considerable economic value for Twitter. And he wants to charge her $8 to do it! pic.twitter.com/EjviPPOAQY

Moving on, here is an interesting observation from Minnesota -- and Saskatchewan is the same, too:Want to call yourself Citibank Password Verification? Here's your blue tick, thanks for the $8.

Interesting bit of history here:Bette Davis with Hattie McDaniel. Davis was the only white member of McDaniel’s troupe of performers to perform for black servicemen during WWII. McDaniel was the Chairman of the Negro Division of the Hollywood Victory Committee. She formed the troupe. pic.twitter.com/0E6lpiux4x

Here's the real thing, a robot that can dance:Louise Sacchi was a modern day ferry pilot, delivering mostly single engine aircraft from the US to Europe out of Gander. Before her retirement in 1980, she had made 340 solo crossings of the North Atlantic. A record unsurpassed by anyone.https://t.co/Q0WtjL6vpW 🇺🇦 pic.twitter.com/PKNcE7qjKw
