1. Don't f*ck with AOC on social media!

She will eat your lunch!

[TigressDem]

35. So he replaced a blue tweety bird with a pink cock. Wow.

You can't make this shit up.

THEY just freud all over themselves.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

2. If her app is 'bricked' then how is she tweeting?

Just curious how that all works, not a twitter expert by any stretch.

[Tree-Hugger]

3. She can tweet

But she is not getting notifications about people who have responded or retweeted to her. It's limiting her accessibility on the app.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

5. Got it, thanks :)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

11. Ok so never heard of that before ( since 2009).. is she saying

That Musk et al, 1/2 blocked her from posting. Can we see responses she may have received?

[Tree-Hugger]

12. We can see

All of her responses are there on our end. When she goes to check her personal notifications, she will get that rooster message. I have gotten that in the past during Twitter glitches, but for AOC thisbis probably targeted.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

13. It's because she's got a blue check I bet! He's holding

those users hostage.

If she had a regular non verified account she wouldn't be here?

[Tree-Hugger]

14. He's being an ass

She is pointing out his stupidity and he doesn't like it.

[NHvet]

28. Tell us something we all didn't know.

He's a whiny little shit that made his money thanks to money you and I poured into his companies via Tax cuts and incentive money during Obama's tenure. He should be thanking all of us for making rich instead of gouging us for more. But that's the capitalist's way.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

30. Right but it's because she is verified with a check. Dont

Think regular people are

[calimary]

23. Maybe go to a different vehicle?

There’s always text messaging. For now, anyway.

[leftstreet]

4. Does she ever talk about Medicare For All anymore? n/t

[Cuthbert Allgood]

7. If only there was a way for you to find out.

I don't know how any progressive could be upset with AOC's twitter account. She fights the good fight there.

[ashredux]

8. Just curious, how is your post relevant to the thread? Maybe I missed something

[uponit7771]

24. WOW !!!! and yes

[zanana1]

6. I love the term "free speechy".

[Laura PourMeADrink]

9. New word of day "bricked"

[Just A Box Of Rain]

16. She is misusing the term.

[Pluvious]

17. True, it irked the pedantic in me too...

But non IT people confuse and misuse tech terms all too often I’ve observed

“Impaired” or “disabled some functionality” is hard to say in a terse yet snarky tweet

[Just A Box Of Rain]

20. Perhaps?

Yo @elonmusk while I have your attention, why should people pay $8 just for you to disable their app when they say something you don’t like?

[Pluvious]

21. That works ! (nt)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

27. Techopedia

Strictly speaking, a device is bricked when it completely loses its functionality. However, the term is being used with more flexibility these days, and in some cases, bricked electronics are still recoverable with some hardware replacement or additional software.

[calimary]

29. Thanks! I was hoping for definitional guidance.

[reACTIONary]

31. +10 nt

[reACTIONary]

32. Look up "boat anchor". A device that has been bricked...

... Becomes a boat anchor.

[Polybius]

10. They're becoming frenemies

I think Musk has a thing for her.

[vanlassie]

15. What else is new.

[dalton99a]

18. Kick

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

19. Some good responses

22. Elon Lindell made me spit my coffee!

[crickets]

33. The Lex Luthor one is my favorite. Spot on. 🤣

[Harker]

25. Chickens don't tweet.

Neither do I.

[ahimsa]

26. I did not realize..

..that verified users could live in a verified-only Twitter-verse. That is interesting- not a knock on AOC for missing that ability but good to know that there is more to being verified than proving you are who you say you are.

[TheProle]

34. I thought we'd determined

that free speech doesn't apply to businesses.
