its crazy how certain so many ppl can be abt whatre clearly very fluid and evolving beliefs, but then again twitter does just make everyone seem completely fn nuts

it's pretty obvious "nasty" doesn't have too carry sexist and misogynist vibes but it's often used that way and also "nasty" works really well with a reclaimed sexual image and looks good on t-shirts and obviously has done well in song
the "wow would u wear shirts that said 'retarded woman'" and it's like uh, no, but no one said that
(except janet jackson in her hit song "retarded" of course)

I'm not really sure what twitter drama that tweet was responding to so mb i'm lacking context (but, saying reactionary shit to counterbalance annoying ppl on twitter is dumb imo), but taken literally it sounds like she is saying, "how is being interrupted by a man calling you "such a nasty woman" while you are in a professional setting "even sexist?" (I can't think of anything more sexist) and "how sheltered would you have to be to even bat an eyelash at that?" just sounds like "toughen up"

I had a Twitter account I never used and when I signed into it after a year I had a thousand new followers from Saudi Arabia. They are their own weird Twitter shit going on there, like these really astral spiritual memes of ducks and cats.

ha, I did this too, didn't tell him anything and wasn't sure how he had his notifications set up but happily he suddenly got ~12k emails. was proud/offended that he immediately rang me accusingly

Yeah, that's it. I probably got it from here, actually.

What's the point of these bot attacks though? What is gained by giving some rando thousands of followers?
― the last famous person you were surprised to discover was actually (man alive), Monday, 24 October 2016 13:00 (seven years ago) link
Ok so which one of you
― the last famous person you were surprised to discover was actually (man alive), Monday, 24 October 2016 13:02 (seven years ago) link
i've never had an influx of that many bot followers but i do get a bot follower here and there, maybe a few a month, i used to block them but now i don't care anymore, many of them unfollow me after a little while anyway
― marcos, Monday, 24 October 2016 14:01 (seven years ago) link
Can you selectively hide who you follow? It seems kind of arbitrary that this is public in the first place imo.

add to the list of web twitter features i don't like
- when u start a soundcloud in yr feed and scroll past it the music stops; what, am i supposed to just sit there staring at the same 2 tweets the whole time?? can the ilxor who works for SC fix this?
- threads appearing in feed that begin halfway through the thread so u have to click thru the first tweet shown to see the top
