that is 24 hour mute, thought we meant lifetime mute

feel bad, a local socially awkward friend who tweets 90% about sports, including local high school sports, was someone I unfollowed. I now happily skim over those since his kidneys are failing and I want to be observant of his life?

muting shd be illegal either follow or unfollow twitter.com i live for this

this used to be my policy but I have been in way too many "why did you unfollow me" conversations to maintain it

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Sunday, 27 December 2015 04:52 (eight years ago) link

so those conversations actually happen? the few times i've unfollowed someone who follows me back, i've mentally prepared to have to explain myself but it's never come up. and when i've noticed someone i liked has unfollowed me, i'm so crestfallen and ashamed i can't bring myself to ask even though i really do wanna know whether i said something to hurt or offend that i should be aware of or if they just like something i insult on a daily basis like Drake.

i had that conversation with people earlier this year who didn't realize that i'd unfollowed, like, everyone except my bot. brutal.

maura, Sunday, 27 December 2015 05:28 (eight years ago) link

this is why i never check who's unfollowed me -- i don't really want to know

mookieproof, Sunday, 27 December 2015 05:33 (eight years ago) link

i never check or notice either bc like there are innumerable reasons ppl might unfollow me, exhaustion, idk they felt like they were following too many people, any of the innumerable not-at-all-personal reasons i've unfollowed people.

many of them take it very personally though which makes me think it really is intended personally

earlier this year the first irl conversation i had with this one music writer involved her asking me "didn't you unfollow me on twitter" and i had but i had totally forgotten why and *it really doesn't matter*

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Sunday, 27 December 2015 07:41 (eight years ago) link

add to list no follow that's the motto

r|t|c, Sunday, 27 December 2015 10:24 (eight years ago) link

it is p weird if someone you're friends with or have known a long time unfollows you. like i guess if you saw them often it wouldn't happen anyway. only really happened me once, i unfollowed them also - i haven't seen them since and realised i don't see them much - plus my twitter is a p erratic mix of shit - i don't bother streamlining my personal brand - loyal customers only.

yeah someone i have worked with for years and continue to work with unfollowed me this year and i'm like uhhh ok but i don't like value their friendship or anything so it's no biggie

north did it

r|t|c, Sunday, 27 December 2015 14:56 (eight years ago) link

lol

lag∞n, Sunday, 27 December 2015 14:58 (eight years ago) link

Goon, is right, if someone notices, just say, oh really? I didn't realize, must have been a bug/accident.

Jeff, Sunday, 27 December 2015 15:08 (eight years ago) link

my first block!!! so undescribably happy. i will miss hate-reading guy's tweets though, damn

Right down to the benevolent racism and sexism.

pizza rolls are a food that exists (silby), Sunday, 27 December 2015 19:59 (eight years ago) link

when i've noticed someone i liked has unfollowed me, i'm so crestfallen and ashamed i can't bring myself to ask even though i really do wanna know whether i said something to hurt or offend that i should be aware of or if they just like something i insult on a daily basis like Drake

every word of this otm, except that i try to restrict my drake insults otherwise they'd take up 80% of my feed

if someone unfollows me i just assume its because of the constant stream of bad tweets

lag∞n, Sunday, 27 December 2015 20:28 (eight years ago) link

yeah i don't have that problem sorry i can't relate

i got a really big steen, and they need some really big zings (some dude), Monday, 28 December 2015 00:41 (eight years ago) link

everyone has their own feed to follow

lag∞n, Monday, 28 December 2015 01:01 (eight years ago) link

Can't relate either. Why get so uptight about unfollowing/unfriending?

Muting RTs makes Twitter so much nicer to read.

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 28 December 2015 01:05 (eight years ago) link

oh yeah always turn off retweets

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 28 December 2015 01:20 (eight years ago) link

But then you miss those ppl who are excellent curators of RT's.

Jeff, Monday, 28 December 2015 01:24 (eight years ago) link

yeah i turn off RTs only for people who use them to spam the feed

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 28 December 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link

sorry y'all i hate twitter

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 28 December 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link

lol

lag∞n, Monday, 28 December 2015 04:35 (eight years ago) link

think ive only ever turned off RTs for a few ppl but it was def necessary and good

lag∞n, Monday, 28 December 2015 04:35 (eight years ago) link

i deeply cherish lag∞n tweets but sometimes i wanna set up a bot that retweets them and adds #thirsty

mookieproof, Monday, 28 December 2015 04:53 (eight years ago) link

o.m.g.

lag∞n, Monday, 28 December 2015 04:55 (eight years ago) link

mookieproof, Monday, 28 December 2015 04:57 (eight years ago) link

lag∞n, Monday, 28 December 2015 05:02 (eight years ago) link

mookieproof, Monday, 28 December 2015 05:12 (eight years ago) link
