If you were wondering how Elon Musk’s ‘improvements’ of Twitter are going, its Trust and Safety Council – which monitored the platform for things like child exploitation, hate speech and doxxing – has been dissolved.
Just out of curiosity, how many folks on this app were already feeling less trusting and less safe before Elmo disbanded Twitter's "Trust and Safety Council" yesterday?

It looks a lot like its Geography and Accuracy Council might have gone for a Burton, too, if Norway’s official Twitter label from yesterday was anything to go by.
Dear @TwitterSupport, as much as we enjoy our excellent bilateral relations and close alphabetical vicinity with Nigeria, we would much appreciate if you could label us as Norway
P.S. That also goes for Prime Minister @jonasgahrstore and Foreign Minister @AHuitfeldt pic.twitter.com/wr6cb3yv2W

The Norwegian government is currently having some technical issues after someone at Twitter asked themselves "How many countries starting with 'N' could there possibly be?" https://t.co/WIAmRPFqak pic.twitter.com/7Dwwa2Hu94

The woke mind virus tries to insist that "Norway" exists but we refuse to submit to compelled speech. The bubble is bursting and libs are losing their minds. https://t.co/Ni9t4uKjGS

Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre appears to have defected to Nigeria according to Twitter's "Government Official" labels.

Probably a bad idea firing the remaining Twitter employee who understood basic geography, Elon. https://t.co/RTtTHb40Xg

Twitter graduated from the Andy Möller school of geography. The football player Andy Möller famously once said "I don't care if I get to play for Milan or Madrid, the main thing is: I want to play in Italy.
He apparently denies ever having said that. https://t.co/NCM7C9tb4k

It didn’t take long for @Shawnifee to take this shot.
Since we’re now one big country, Norgeria, you’ll let Haaland play for us at the next AFCON and World Cup, yeah?

We’re afraid that one hit the bar.
