I hear this argument a lot when I talk about cryonics. But cryonics is just pausing a person's biology after clinical death to transport them to a future hospital that might be able to save them. It's like calling it "vanity" to exhaust all options during a battle against cancer. — PolitiTweet.org

If the 100Mt Tsar Bomba (the largest bomb designed by the USSR) were dropped on NYC. Bad times. h/t @Liv_Boeree https://t.co/4O5LJuaCLt — PolitiTweet.org

@Sepulco1 @stfeldt No I meant that over the past few years, when visiting a number of different countries in Asia, Europe, and North America, I’ve been surprised that Apple Pay is accepted in most situations—taxis, restaurants, shops, hotels. — PolitiTweet.org

I meant physical credit cards feel old school. Obviously many people paying with their phone are still paying with a credit card account. — PolitiTweet.org
Tim Urban @waitbutwhy
The global adoption of Apple Pay / Google Pay happened so quickly. Credit cards / cash / coins / checks / wallets already feel like they’re of another generation. — PolitiTweet.org

Every time I tweet I gain some new followers, but each tweet also generates some new unfollows. I like knowing that each of my tweets is someone's last straw. — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine how cool and convenient candles seemed when they were first invented. This tightly packed stick of fuel that creates light for hours. — PolitiTweet.org
Simon Kuestenmacher @simongerman600
Hurts my brain to think that a candle once was a great tech innovation that massively improved peoples’ lives. https://t.co/owVkM2zRaH

Like other social media platforms Twitter has been stuck for a long time now. Unable to change, unable to innovate, unable to improve. It’s time to use our imagination and reason from first principles about what the next era of social media could and should look like. Thoughts? — PolitiTweet.org

If we live to 1,000 in the future, people will see a 90-year-old being an asshole and say "be easy on him—he's still a baby, coping with ego and tribalism and other first-century silliness." Today, we live in a world made up entirely of first-century children. Be compassionate. — PolitiTweet.org
