lol
this has been up for 4+ hours now and he's trying to play it off as intentional???????????

Yes, this is magnificent.

Lmao.

a happy ending after all

hahahaha

basically nobody with a job should be on social media is what I learned

― a Warren Beatty film about Earth (El Tomboto)

what i learned is that spending lots of time on social media is a great pathway to not having a job

LMAO

hooooo boy

the other lesson to draw is perhaps that working from home will always be a bad idea one way or another

the joshtpm saga is hilarious

how in the fuuuuuuck

don't really know how to feel about his attempt to brazen this out and claim he posted the video on purpose

it is brazy

I've watched it upward of fifty times now but I still don't think either of the women is kellyanne conway or w/e

so many replies

decent concept

everyone's missing the point w/ joshtpm... that is obv the sort of tastefully banal vid someone would intentionally select to attempt a risque take, but in order to be able to make that informed selection at all he has outed himself as the wild degenerate porn head

Lindy West: I’ve left Twitter. It is unusable for anyone but trolls, robots and dictators

can someone explain the phenom of people changing their first name to "punished" -- like "Joe Smith" becomes "<Punished> Smith".

Is this a reference to something that i'm missing? it must be.

those r ppl who are punished

I'm trying to catch up on the Chapo podcasts and... they're so long

After thinking about it for an extremely long time I have decided JoshTPM is not a kink double agent. He is a genuinely boring "tasteful pornography" enthusiast who also enjoys his moderate amounts of wine and liquor. There is no top-secret WAM+pegging cache. He's just a hard working Ph. D. with his own small business. He loves him some Bob Dylan. He's boring as fuck!

pretending he posted on purpose instead of deleting it is pretty funny

he never apologized, blamed readership for being prudes, tweeted thru it, and now nobody cares. tough!

twitter - [journos of any kind] = perfect twitter

eh journalists are pretty central to my twitter experience. if you just care about your buddies and weird twitter i don't see why tumblr can't fulfill that need

bc they're not on tumblr

no one is on tumblr

tumblr was cool kind of sad to see it die, though there are still some good ones

Apart from the occasional fix of arty smut tumblr never served any purpose for me. Not been on tumblr for years. It doesn't exist anymore in my world and I have no idea what the hell, if anything, is going on there these days.

Twitter without journos though: where's the fun in that?

journos on twitter is actually how you get the arty smut fix these days

That is not entirely wrong :)

they did say a close relationship

I think it sucks that Twitter has turned out to be a real boon for, more than anyone else, a coterie swho already write for a living, already has a venue for its work, already has a following . Of ourse I can, and have, curated my feed to exclude all but a few, but the Big Thing on Twitter will always center around a journalistic figure and here new piece/latest beef etc. I like to imagine a Twitter where these already prominent figures (good as many may be) were not allowed to step in and take over.

ack, sorry for errors, it's late

I really dislike this new thing (new to me, anyhow) of seeing tweets liked by people I follow on my timeline. Is there a way to turn it off?

Wow, not heard of that before, that would annoy the shit out of me. Idk I use tweetbot, I want Twitter to a linear flow. The Twitter desktop and app are so annoying ever since they introduced the 'while you were away' stuff. It breaks the flow. (This is not helpful for you anagram, soz)

i find not using twitter eliminates this minor annoyance associated with twitter

do you watch television

guessing deems watches television else he'd be posting in the television thread all the time

i dont even ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mark Hamill has started reading Trump quotes in the voice of Joker, on Twitter

best hack i did on twttr was to erase the app from my phone and computer

sub-darraghmac at best

The hack will set you free

how long did Twitter spend relitigating dem primary in 08? will this ever end?

no one was on twitter yet in '08

I was but we were busy saying "HEY I AM AT A CONCERT WOO" and there wasn't as much interaction
