* constantly quote-tweeting arseholes to tell them to fuck off (which means I'm effectively following said arseholes)
god i hate this

* always having to have an opinion about everything, whether they are informed about it or not
this however seems to be the engine on which the internet has always run
few oldtimers don't have a ronaldinho bottle opener of sorts somewhere in the archives. will cop to that being particularly egregious though

I mean this whole website is built on people having an opinion on which music is good and which is bad, which is a pretty foolish endeavor

I liked the movie I saw last night and went on letterboxd and one person I follow gave it 5 stars and one gave it 1 star, nobody knows what's good and what's bad

what is fucking cancel-watch? when someone fucks up and twitter sentences them to death?
no, more like when someone fucks up and everyone feels the need to pick over it for days on end like it's some kind of juicy drama instead of another tedious fuckup of no lasting consequence - this is in contrast to when Trump (or a number of other powerful people) fucks up, which is barely even noted now.

some of the assholes are so grotesque and absurd that while recognizing the toxicity of the situation i kinda find them hilarious and fascinating

like someone posted laura loomers patreon the other day and she was making $800 a/month, not exactly a media star, but on the other hand she does completely pitiful ridiculous stunts constantly so i can understand the urge to rubberneck

what i'm mostly tired of is people who endlessly complain about everything
yes i am complaining about that

There’s like hundreds of lefty people on here who follow 2500 people and all they do is post epic pig poop balls pics at pundits no one in real life has heard of, get some 70 year old to ask “what’s BOFA?” And then whine about being banned for threatening to kill their kid or w.e— jack sparrow/jack skellington calf tattoos (@intellegint) March 21, 2019

just nearly fell in a trap by replying to a dude only to realize 90% of his twitter presence is making spurious arguments in comments, completely tangential to the original tweet, all total garbage
pretty funny that his shtick is starting tweets with “well, then do you concede that..” followed by more irrelevant junk
a million tweeter stories out there in the city

completely understand why pig poop balls is a good reply now though

what is this trend of guilt-tripping people into donating money to their cashapp/venmo accounts? i'm seeing this more and more, usually in the context of social justice issues but it's kind of annoying tbh

Some people need money, other people have money
― don't mock my smock or i'll clean your clock (silby), Saturday, 1 June 2019 14:18 (five years ago) link
that's fair obviously, so why not just ask instead of making ppl feel like a moral failure?
― groovemaaan, Saturday, 1 June 2019 15:09 (five years ago) link
the latter is probably more effective

Whenever I follow a link from ILX to a political tweet and do a bit of scrolling down into the replies, I get the definite impression that Twitter is still rife with bots and Russian trolls.

finally blocked enough brands that i'm getting promoted tweets from "NematodeFacts"

blocking every ad is so essential for that reason

i finally got forced onto the new desktop layout and it just doesn't function at all, my login cookie doesn't log me in half the time i click a link to a tweet from an external site, and a bunch of former QoL features are missing or obscured like the 'translate this tweet' requires an additional click to make appear now and sometimes just doesn't appear at all
