Twitter C/D

All this talk about how quitting Twitter was the best thing you ever did, you guys must’ve been following some depressing-as-fuck people.

Journalists mainly :(

That would definitely explain it.

librarians

academics

on a long enough timeline most people become depressing-as-fuck people

twitter is def psychologically agitating, its just a lot of info/opinion to be exposed to

I just started worrying about far too wide a swath of people; I can’t do anything to ensure the safety or well-being of random strangers having a bad time and that would make me very agitated.

Seems like a stable platform:

Twitter says all 336 million users should change their passwords

lol

lagoon as a twitter expert what's your take on this password kerfuffle?

I'm not lagoon but this is a best practices move imo, it doesn't sound like anything was compromised

passwords are dumb we shd all just trust each other

Once again the third day's take on the first day *doffs cap*

twitter is okay and all but fuck that 'Moments' section contains mostly garbage.

i used the password ilx randomly generated for me for every account, for like 5 years

Twitter is fine you just have to find your pocket

i want more followers on twitter. specifically, i want 300 followers. been stuck in the mid 250s forever, finally cracking a stable 280 but it's so slow

i used the password ilx randomly generated for me for every account, for like 5 years

I've got 222 followers, which is fine. If I ever say anything exciting, they can RT it out into the world.

you guys know the ilx generates passwords are available to premium tier ilx subscribers right

I spent a day typing them up myself

my ilx passwords always sound like wonderful would-be words. an old expired one was 'osnomoad', loved that one

I only use passwords that are artisanally generated by a pubescent girl.

I should get into that line of work. I’ve got all these dice just sitting around.

exactly

enjoying the people who have been clowning the krassenstein bros

for anyone unfamiliar -- I wasn't -- they're a couple grifters who originally had "fan" accounts for justin bieber and a couple others and begged for retweets, and they've pivoted those accounts under their own names and are now grifting "the resistance" for retweets

also, they like cryptocurrency

pretty good

maybe "grifter" is a little too generous, these guys aren't really bright enough to come up with a grift

Curt Schilling getting dragged = Good Twitter

The level of anger and vitriol the left will spew will be in direct proportion to just how perfect this decision is. https://t.co/6qjCJx91wC

corey going shirtless in his pic is a nice touch

congratulations to legume for his successful synthesizer tweet!

Want to see what your Twitter timeline would've looked like 10 years ago today, if you followed all the same people you do now? https://t.co/41a6iQcYhc

lmao for me it's only j0n w1lliams and Kristen Hersh

one of the first ones was a friend of mine concluding a tweet with:
"I'll only have cell service where there's wifi... Which is probably nowhere"

oh man, and my coworkers of the time tweeting about being huge dumbasses by closing down the bar on a weeknight before heading to work the next morning

My first one is stet with a highly timeless and/or prophetic post.

unbroken chain of obama 08 campaign posting, and then NASA tweets

oops there's matt stoller

I think I just saw a corn/human hybrid waking in the greenhouses
