Video: Jack is Having Twitter Withdrawal

Feb 8, 2024, 12:00 PM | Updated: 12:28 pm

Hi, my name is Jack Stine and it’s been 4 days since I last opened Twitter/X.

Remember when the internet used to be fun? After a year of Twitter under Musk’s leadership and rebrand, Jack Stine was seeing his feed filled with OnlyFans ads, violence and far-right or far-left extremist content and boldly decided to delete his account. So why is his finger still twitching towards where the app used to be on his phone screen?

Tune in with Jack Stine and Spike O’Neill live on KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM every weekday from noon to 3pm. Or hey, you’re on your phone itching to check social media, you can download our podcast instead. Consider it a beta version of Twitter Nonusers Anonymous (TNA) ((Trademarked)).
