Adam Baldwin has had enough of Twitter. After the social media platform’s continued censorship of conservatives, the actor decided he’s leaving and never coming back.

“Twitter is dead to me,” Baldwin told the Independent Journal Review. “I’m going to find greener pastures elsewhere and I’m not coming back.”

On Monday, Balwdin, who currently plays XO Mike Slattery in TNT’s “The Last Ship,” deleted his entire Twitter history, except for one:

If you haven’t read this, you should:

It is fiction (I almost never read fiction intentionally), but just barely.

I would quit Twitter too, but I’ve never used it.

Interesting Article about people giving up smart phones for daily use.

I have a great flip phone that does texting. I have always thought that this particular flip phone with a keyboard should be brought back because it is small, easy to use durable, and keeps a charge. I actually think that there would be money in buying the patent and having it manufactured.

Twitter really needs a serious competitor. They wouldn’t dream of taking the “Control Junky” route if users had an alternative.

It has evolved into a dump with one redeeming quality: .... comedy....Ruth Buzzi, Steve Martin, Chuck Woolery, Pat Sajak, Larry the cable Guy, Rickles, Clarkson, May, Hammond,....

That’s a shame. I followed him on Twitter. He is an avid gamer and was great to read during the ‘GamerGate’ drama.

I dint need to know anybody’s thoughts every three seconds.

Exactly. I can't figure out how someone was able to convince so many people that so many people would be interested in whatever thought crossed their tiny little minds at any given moment.
