i like to think that they tried to reach out to utility limb but the email they got back was just a completely black screen that made them feel alone + bereft of all hope

the funniest troll-y thing weird twitter did was imho when they highjacked the hashtag for some bicycle day thing in toronto and made all these claims of police brutality and it turned into this whoe hilarious story and was so funny and im upset and disappointed it wasnt included in the article

i did, i think some1 hacked into the email account attached to it and by then i had already abandoned that account due to irl circumstances making me question the amount of time i was online in general, so in a fit of guilt i deleted it

the bike day thing was about tedx toronto as i recall, which was streaming appropriately tagged tweets to a huge led screen somewhere. the claims were that they had taken all the bikes off the racks because they were illegally parked. this eventually transformed into an elaborate story about a bike bonfire.
