Mired in Muskland, Third Edition
The reason I acquired Twitter is because it isimportant to the future of civilization to havea common digital town square, where a widerange of beliefs can be debated in a healthymanner, without resorting to violence. Thereis currently great danger that social mediawill splinter into far right wing and far leftwing echo chambers that generate morehate and divide our society.
In the relentless pursuit of clicks, much oftraditional media has fueled and catered tothose polarized extremes, as they believethat is what brings in the money, but, in doingso, the opportunity for dialogue is lost.That is why I bought Twitter. I didn't do itbecause it would be easy. I didn't do it tomake more money. I did it to try to helphumanity, whom I love. And I do so withhumility, recognizing that failure in pursuingthis goal, despite our best efforts, is a veryreal possibility.That said, Twitter obviously cannot become afree-for-all hellscape, where anything can besaid with no consequences!
Fundamentally, Twitter aspires to be themost respected advertising platform in theworld that strengthens your brand and growsyour enterprise. To everyone who haspartnered with us, I thank you. Let us buildsomething extraordinary together.
During a weekend campaign rally in Georgia, Obama acknowledged Walker's status as a great football player but questioned what other qualities he had that made him worthy of being a United States senator.
"Some of you may not remember, but Herschel Walker was a heck of a football player... does that make him the best person to represent you?" Obama asked the crowd. "Let's say you're at the airport and you see Walker and you say, 'Hey, there's Herschel, Heisman winner. Let's have him fly the plane!'"
I wouldn't be so sure that one of Walker's alter personalities - he's admitted to having had about a dozen - has developed so he can actually fly an airplane. Either that of he has an honorary pilot license.

Second Edition Mired in Muskand Comic Series
By Hal Brown
Pictoon Number One for Oct. 30 (click images to enlarge)
These are the images I used to put this together:
This is where I found the gold Lexus. It was made for a sheik.
I'm still recovering from pneumonia and woke abut four times over the night coughing. At 3 AM I also managed to knock a glass of water off my bedside table and got my pillows and sheets soaked. By then I was pretty much awake and got the idea for my first pictoon. By 4 AM I couldn't wait to find and put the images I needed together so I made myself a cup of coffee and the result is what you see above.
Will Twitter turn into the Chief Twit's version of Mr. Dark's Pandemonium Carnival? Beware the merry-go-round.

Mired in Muskland : An Ongoing Series of Hilarious Pictoons: First Edition
Elon says "comedy is now legal" on Twitter, so I figure since I am hilarious, and even though I am not a cartoonist I can put together what I call pictoons by manipulating images, so why not? All you can do is mock me and throw cyber rotten vegetables at me and boo me off the stage.
As I come up with new pictoons about Elon Musk I will also post them on Twitter. The first one is here.
