Twitter C/D

The only time I found any enjoyment in Chihuly's work was touring his exhibit by the Space Needle, where it was like enveloping yourself in the stoned alien landscape and less about a kind of ugly "focal" point in another context.

Yeah Chihuly's stoner aesthetic is what I enjoyed about the one big exhibition of his I saw, where you could walk through immersive tunnels lined with it. (I actually did it stoned iirc.) Silly but kinda fun and unobjectionable imo.

went down a glass rabbit hole after all this talk about Oxman's orbs and Chihuly and now my instagram feed is just 90% dudes who make drug pipes

ty tabes and also this thread suddenly overdelivered whoa

*returns orb to rest spot*

Classic understatement from the Met Office.

Nope, but a very funny tweet

Hm, guess not. That used to work.

guess embeds are broken, noticed they had been loading slow for a while

finally

lol

elon is good at last

it's giving me a warning about adult content and says i have to add my dob to my Twitter account. an guessing that's why it won't expand

i tried a different one thats a picture of a deer

what's adult content about those two posts is a mystery.

and if anyone asks my birthday *was* 0 Unix time.

the weather

Freezing rain is forecast from the Southern Plains into the Mid-Mississippi Valley Sunday into Monday. Ice accumulations will likely cause minor to moderate travel impacts from central/eastern Oklahoma to the St. Louis metro area, especially during the Monday morning commute. pic.twitter.com/DtV1vRJvQT

yeah you got it, i logged into one of my other accounts that has default settings, so i guess twitter just isnt letting any tweets that are flagged for sensitive content out of the site

https://i.imgur.com/PoHCLPH.png

prob just using some not very accurate system to flag tweets

i did just see a tweet suggesting it was flagging a lot of things all of a sudden, even innocent things

my feed is all indie games and train pics but Twitter thinks I also want to hear from every single local radio dj in England. and bthm, whatever that is. and wwe.

my second Twitter account which is meant to be possible i know and music is now people i know and music and the same train pics as the other account. i didn't think that should happen.

yeah seems like something has gone awry at xhq

fascist content oozing into unrelated posts, shame

An 𝕏 spam/scam bot accidentally flagged many legitimate accounts today. This is being fixed.

Today, a bug in our system caused X to incorrectly label numerous posts as Sensitive Media. We’ve fixed the underlying issue and are now working to remove labels from impacted posts.

the spam/scam bot is coming from inside the system

It is going to be hilare in a few years where every ILx thread that relied on embedded twits will be a wasteland scattered with dead URLs.

the images will break, but the embed copies the text of the tweet into the ilx post… when it works

thats a nice feature cheers to stet bunch of deleted tweets preserved on ilx

OK yeah I didn't know that was how it worked! Neat.

just a couple normal guys hanging out

enjoying my extreme wealth the way anybody would, choosing to get mad on twitter

love to meet and share common interests

Great to meet you and share common interests. https://t.co/0TdSFLpqtZ

One guy's head way too big for his body, one guy's head way too small for his body. Goddamn mutants.

Is Ackman the subject of numerous sexual assault accusations too?

no, he’s an ostensible social liberal rich guy who doesn’t have any real interest in the world but decided to use his financial/social capital to protect his israeli wife’s interests by awkwardly thrusting her further into the light, day by day

he also met up with and has been boosting that one guy who is challenging Biden for the dem ticket. apparently the one artifact of his genius guidance has been the deletion of anything that looks like diversity, equity, inclusion from the campaign platform

also he’s been doing X spaces with Elon & co. just a divorced from reality idea about what’s relevant. the average voter probably just thinks “these are guys I heard of who went a little kooky lately” if they know them at all
