on the internal chat there's a channel called #stonks full of idiots like me with no inside knowledge but who are watching things very closely for obvious reasons, and sentiment that the deal will close, and that the deal with close at $54.20 in particular, is definitely on the wane.

I always wonder how much these soy people overlap with creepy white dudes obsessed with Japan.
admittedly this one seems to a slightly more special full-throated british imperialism booster. but anyway, lagoon otm how did we end up with racist psycho "God, King, and Country" imperialists publicly horning for barefoot hippie yanks?

The whole thing about Twitter "spam accounts" reminded me that when I joined Twitter in 2012, I would occasionally get followed by some super-obvious spam account like a Sexy Lady Looking to Chat or a Digital Marketing Business Guru, and at first I was baffled as to why they would bother *following* me, and then I realized that it was essentially just putting an ad in my mentions. Anyway, that hasn't happened in a really long time, and it makes me wonder whether those types of accounts specifically target new users, or whether Twitter just got better at weeding out stuff like that.
