correct analysis:
"the ratio," in the classic sense, is a worn out cliche but ever since they started counting quote tweets youre now capable of seeing a whole new form of it pic.twitter.com/r8h0yvgyad— Rich Lather (@allahliker) June 26, 2020

also correct (from Billy Budd, Sailor): "Now there can exist no irritating juxtaposition of dissimilar personalities comparable to that which is possible aboard a great war-ship fully manned and at sea. There, every day among all ranks almost every man comes into more or less of contact with almost every other man. Wholly there to avoid even the sight of an aggravating object one must needs give it Jonah's toss or jump overboard himself. Imagine how all this might eventually operate on some peculiar human creature the direct reverse of a saint?"

wow my twitter followers have tripled in the last few months to 66 and what a result today. I just got notified that The Wankford Way has followed me back!

I went out to a bar with a friend of a friend who is very active on Twitter and he had two “twitter friends” in tow and my god was it awful.

It’s weird to see actual human beings mimic a format. Like all snide, ironic quips that only they would laugh at.

ive met ppl like that, i agree they are lame. all my mufos ive met up with are not like that, and are cool

"heartbreaking" is trending on twitter; not for any one story but for like ten different stories.

Fucking HELL I'm rarely on Twitter and it's pointless enough not to really wind me up but this RS Archer Brexit shit is back once again - I thought he'd deleted his account - it's really pushing my buttons due to how utterly shit it is, not even good trolling, just fucking tedious and smug beyond belief with the O Gods and lol shoes agh I hate it

just got this NYT alert:
"The twitter accounts of several prominent figures appears to have been hacked - including Joe Biden, Kanye West, Bill Gates and Elon Musk"
― The GOAT Harold Land (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 21:47 (three years ago) link
would this be a hack into twitter's database? how else would you get into so many different people's accounts?

Within hours of the tweets appearing, nearly 300 people had fallen for the scam, sending more than $100,000 to the wallet.
― scampos mentis (gyac), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:00 (three years ago) link
Feel like this must be some exploit because all those people are going to have security on their accounts right? It’s not like lifting some pleb’s details off a database.
― scampos mentis (gyac), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:01 (three years ago) link
Either way, it's kind of impressive tbh.

We are aware of a security incident impacting accounts on Twitter. We are investigating and taking steps to fix it. We will update everyone shortly.— Twitter Support (@TwitterSupport) July 15, 2020

They’re still getting away with it. Kim Kardashian hacked three minutes ago.
Strongly speculated that they’ve hacked a Twitter employee with access to whole account database.

Idk why they don’t just take the site down until they’ve fixed it.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:12 (three years ago) link
The theory I saw that seemed plausible is someone hijacked a service authorized to tweet on behalf of users, eg people used a 3rd party app to schedule tweets, and that app got hacked.Twitter itself being compromised is less likely, but not out of the question.
― lukas, Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:13 (three years ago) link
Yeah as others have pointed out, this would be a good time to bring back the whale.
sending more than $100,000 to the wallet
Even if that sum has doubled by now, doesn't seem like it was worth it.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:15 (three years ago) link
All verified accounts banned from posting.

The Kim Kardashian tweet was posted via the web app. It’s still up!

FYI what they seem to have done is made their api reject posts to verified accounts as spam, they don’t actually have a “mute everyone” function
