Is social media dying? How much has Twitter changed as it became X? Which party now dominates the conversation?

Using nationally representative ANES data from 2020 & 2024, I map how the U.S. social media landscape has transformed.

Here are the key take-aways 🧵

I'm afraid they all think it's the Demoncrats' fault. It's an insane crowd over there.

@slowhorsesappletv.bsky.social Compulsively rewatching S5E2 😍 and feeling a bit miffed sinde (1) Copenhagen in fact prides itself of citizen's ample access to green spaces and (2) kerb-crawling is not a crime there …

I just went over to facebook to see what's going on. Three minutes in and I'm reminded of why I left nine months ago. It's like a tsunami of hate, nonsense, lies and insanity. And it's real, that's the worst part.

Should the Reagan foundation not sue Trump for misrepresenting Regan's stance on tariffs?

There is no misrepresentation. Just Reagan's own words. youtu.be/gFMyB8WMuDU?...

The entire speech is even more damaging to Trump's policy. youtu.be/gFMyB8WMuDU?...

From what I understand, the project is funded by private donations. I guess those donations, plus the fine, can go towards reconstructing the wing?

Tak for jeres arbejde! Enhver med bare en lille smule virkelighedssans kan regne ud, at det her ikke er en barnebrud, men der er åbenbart virkelig mange mennesker derude, der foretrækker dén historie.

They let him out without his diaper, that's all.

Looks like he should have worn a bigger diaper.

I imagine that soccer mostly appeals to a blue audience, given that it's more of a European game. So if he manages to relocate the matches, the US audience might diminish. Add to that the proportion of foreigners who are too scared to travel to the US, and the US-based World Cup is a fiasco.

Well, they were casting again this summer at Hellfest in Nantes. Google Anna Makeeva and you will find the story.

Ian's father died when he was a child, and he was brought up the home of his stepfather, a baptist minister. Apparently, the parents are now divorced. They never came to court; but the minister said he'd happily come and slap Ian around in a cell for an hour or so. Not entirely normal and loving.
