Elon Musks's Godless Categories

Fifteen years ago I dedicated myself to a daily prayer tweet on Twitter in which I would tweet with the song of the lark, the eye of the eagle, the holy spirit of the dove and the wisdom of the owl.

Now  twitter has become X, and it seems its X to all those things.  X's new owner, Elon Musk ,has removed my followers and requires me to tick a list of categories his algorithm machines have invented for me - e.g. Newcastle (my nearest city) etc etc.

I am not interested in these crass, money-driven categories.  The categories X should be programmed to embrace are things like truth, beauty, goodness, honesty, eternity, peace,  heaven-on-earth, honour, selfless service, community, listening etc etc.

So the birds are silenced. Money reigns supreme. Death crawls across our screens.
