its like i dont understand the conventions, and it feels like boring middleaged ppl figured it out quicker than i did and i'm sick of watching the news and they do their twitter bit and i'm like what? why do ppl on twitter matter. And the stupid fake words its generated are uniformly irritating like what retweet? idk then theres this thing where you're supposed to follow things in realtime now and i'm like what i cant keep up and all of this is gibberish to me.

aww there you are! done! Followed!
check you out with your tumblr, you hipster you.
― VegemiteGrrrl, Saturday, 5 February 2011 00:21 (thirteen years ago) link
yay!
as for the tumblr, to be a proper hipster, I think I'd have to be posting photos of topless girls in strange poses taken in 1977 or a lot of variations on the "Keep Calm" art.

Know about the murderer, didn't know about the wife-beater. Educational -_-

I was neither murderer nor beater, just trying to be funny. I'm curious too tbh!Do we know who is running ILX twitter account? I'm slow on the uptake.

Now that our motion has been unsealed, we can inform you that the ACLU and the Electronic Frontier Foundation filed a brief in late January asking a federal court in Alexandria to stop the government from accessing individuals' Twitter accounts as part of its Wikileaks investigation. With social networking sites multiplying and more people becoming engaged online, it becomes increasingly important to ensure that users' free speech and privacy rights are protected on the internet.

iirc someone posted a few times (on a thread about people having violent thoughts maybe?) and then later went on to murder someone? I think he signed his name as his posting name is how it all came together. My memory might be playing tricks though.

gibson's pretty rad, like the dude is on a 24/7 sci-fi trip and can't really seem to shake predicting the future. this was a recent one:
"I imagine that all purpose-built book-reading units will be relics soon enough. Analog watch > digital watch > cell phone."
but he tweets to fucking hell, honestly racking up to 20per day, mostly replies to things ppl have to say. very into it, i guess.
