Twitter C/D

that deadspin list missed yr post abt the triangle on sweatshirts (lol xp)

the ohnoshetwitnt account is the worst thing ever.

the tweet saying people not believing the cia about russian hacking showed why women are afraid to report sexual assault because they think they won't be believed was just unbelievable

that deadspin list missed yr post abt the triangle on sweatshirts (lol xp)

prob got it in too late

one difficult thing abt twitter his how ones best tweets go unrecognized while dum thrown off photo captions trend into infinity

i will never do visual content on twitter im a purist

i respect yr dedication to never going viral

honestly twitter has been so good post-election though i dont get why anyone hates it

whatre u enjoying abt it in partic

a lot of the leftist irony bros had gotten kind of stale over the last year or so, like theres only so many comedy of twitter manners jokes to go around abt how lame norms are or w/e but the horror and despair of the trump admin + the lib media having some disassociative fugue abt the election results has got ppls game back on point imo. also i mean 'lets do some game theory' is a classic forum meltdown, twitter feels more like the forums than ever for both the good (kurt eichenwald's wife posting) and the bad (pizzagate)

there have been some sensational highs recently true good call

why is one side of the sweatshirt triangle always slightly longer than the other

why does the sweatshirt triangle even exist there are so many questions

some of them are funny but i find a most of leftist twitter completely insufferable, maybe that observation isnt even worth making its just who they are xp

i mean the bizarre total confidence in the discourse is kinda fascinating but it gets old

Twitter at its absolute worst rn with thousands copycatting and tweeting 'franz Ferdinand' or '1914' -_-

like the chapo dudes revel in their vulgarity but seem completely blind to how lame and annoying they are

listening to them talk to adam curtis was like oh this is what a healthy person with something to say sounds like

yeah i'm not really into the chapo trap house thing but there's a bunch of overlap between those folks and the old SA forums and video games folks that i like so i can't really avoid it entirely

pride in negativity can produce some good content but its ultimately a dead end

#FranzFerdinand Everyone who never studied history suddenly wants to be on trend.This isn't an intellectual exercise, this is prelude to WW3

*jack off hand motion*

^ that times 1000

one thing abt the assassination of franz ferdinand is that no one thought it wld start a world war was one of the key aspects that lead to it starting a world war

lol, UMS, how did you come to be familiar with Louis Kasatkin?

yeah but that just proves it's going to start WW3, see, xp

A dude got killed, and things are tense, and no one has a coherent theory of how this leads to WW3. Therefore, it leads to WW3.

cool people know ww3 has been going on for a while

ww3 is a cyberwar

cyber is so important

worldwide war 3.0

i dont listen to the chapo pod cuz pods are p lame and i only follow felix but i like that those dudes are just starting shit w/ all these media libs and posting mean shit. i loved when ppl got roasted on the forums.

i follow the other two who are not felix and one of them follows me, i am blocked by one of the secondary two, i never listen to pods but someone sent me a clip from the adam curtis on which was p cool

lol, UMS, how did you come to be familiar with Louis Kasatkin?

searched #FranzFerdinand on twitter to see what the fuss was abt and he was the first search result! what's his deal?

anyway i love these people acting like franz ferdinand is some super obscure knowledge nugget like i know jackshit abt history and i remember that from high school

we even did a thing in class where one person wore a black glove (to represent the black hand of serbia) and threw a dodge ball at some kid who was supposed to be franz ferdinand

our teacher was our wrestling coach

we also had a slave auction with money that had willie nelson's picture on it :/

lmao! incredible

Omg

that is tremendous

I'm mostly a chapo stan still, definitely feels like they are losing a little steam or trying to find new footing with the Trump presidency. It's sort of like "you were right about the liberal order, it failed, now what?" Dissing all these pundits starts to lose its salience now that those pundits are actually fading/drowning.

Christman is a funny and original tweeter imo, and the smartest of the three. Felix is ok but kind of rehashes the same jokes.

I still generally like the show but prefer when they have a good interview on (Adam Curtis) or at least a good "reading series" rather than just filling the airtime with kibbutzing.

xp lol holy shit

i have pared my twitter down to locals, plus just niche stuff like personal hobbies/interests, enjoying it more this way

i wish twitter let u made lists out of block terms, i wld like to be able to log onto a trump and socialism etc free twitter sometimes but not all the time

I didn't know people liked "Take Me Out" that much!

some ppl love it... but some ppl HATE it

yeah i'm not really into the chapo trap house thing but there's a bunch of overlap between those folks and the old SA forums and video games folks that i like so i can't really avoid it entirely

Whoa, OTM. Some strong SA or NeoGAF vibes for sure. I guess that’s why it’s so horrible.

Whatever. I don’t know. People should be nicer.

love of owns and valuing kindness forever u fight inside me

i dont think niceness is always kinds. owns are so so necessary

owns shd arise naturally ppl try to force the owns

way too many forced owns, love of owns has morphed into "WATCH THIS BRUTAL AND EPIC TAKEDOWN" trash

oh yeah any own like any joke has to be spontaneous and is immediately ruined if telegraphed by a clickbait headline

pride in negativity can produce some good content but its ultimately a dead end

I think I justified to myself something like "well I only talk about the stuff I'm actually into, so if I look at it with a critical eye, at least I'm joking about it" but the truth is that being critical only gives you so much if you're interested in actually making things better. have to highlight the positive sometimes or at least clown it in a pleasing way

at least we can all acknowledge the "game theory" dude was shockingly bad though

I'm now hearing this meme that says that that dude is shockingly bad etc. Guys. It's time for some game theory.
