Best News Bloopers Of November 2022
I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of these with so many visual gags that I can’t figure out. There are always a couple, but I was completely lost for an easy 95% of this. If you’re blind, I honestly can’t recommend watching it. But I do hope that Ronda enjoys the free groceries.
Twitter Is Doing Great. If It Could Tweet, It Would Tell You As Much
The Elon Musk takeover of Twitter is going even better than I expected. Hate speech is on the rise, advertisers are leaving in droves, half the company got fired and then some of them got asked to come back because they were either laid off by accident or found to be more important than anticipated, …
