The Fellowship of Guelphissauga: Poking the Province & Rainbow Crosswalk Twitter Battle | May 2023

The Fellowship of Guelphissauga continues with “poking the province in the eye” and the Rainbow Crosswalk getting Ratio'd on Twitter. The Elder Elves pushed back against the Big Blue Orc's new rule change with Bill 23, and directed the Mayor to write a protest letter on behalf of the Council of Elders to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing(1). Meanwhile, a Sunshine Lister got trigger happy with the Block button on Twitter, overwhelming them with feedback on the Rainbow Crosswalk(2). Back in the northern forest, Rodrigo of Goller took another attempt at building an eScooter program with a predictable outcome(3). Can the Elder Elves protect the Shire from the 23-Storey Eye of Sauron before they lose their hair from turning into Creatures of the Province?

---------------------------------

What do you think?
Can the Mayor successfully write a letter?
Is it ironic that the City blocked comments on a Tweet asking for comments?
Is it better to block, ignore, or reply to the Trolls?
Should the eScooter program get tossed to the curb?
