OK so I changed my password and I still think my account is sending spam out to people. I don't know what to do!

you need to revoke your managed applications. Go into your settings, then choose "Apps" on the left hand side, then revoke everything. You'll need to reactivate the ones you actually want later.
(Changing your password doesn't stop authenticated apps from working, and the spammers will have authenticated a client app to do their thing)

They're rebuilding it to take all that shit out now.

The first thing that you might notice is that permalink URLs are now simpler: they no longer use the hashbang (#!).

sucks when a celeb makes the same joke you made in a previous tweet and you look at their RTs and favs and followers vs. your RTs and favs and followers and you feel a little sad about it
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 2 July 2012 19:59 (eleven years ago) link
eh if someone makes the same joke as you it's prob not a terribly original joke worth feeling any type of way about
― abandon al ships (some dude), Monday, 2 July 2012 20:00 (eleven years ago) link

Tweetbot for iOS can mute hashtags and keywords. Quiets things down quite a bit.
― Jeff, Saturday, 28 July 2012 16:53 (eleven years ago) link
Oh Jeff, you're brilliant. I didn't know there was a keyword/expression mute in Tweetbot until now.
In Australia we have a "sport" called "AFL" that's basically just a lower-class version of rugby. Every week the incredibly obnoxious AFL twitter account starts a load of brand new hashtags, one for EVERY SINGLE FUCKING GAME (#aflbluestigers #afleaglesbats etc etc fucking etc). I've just created a wildcard filter (#afl*) in Tweetbot that WORKS and suddenly love the shit out of you, Jeff.

What was it this kid tweeted to Tom Daley that got him arrested, then? Did he threaten to blow him sky high? Either way, Graham Linehan's gleeful "get him banned" campaign is nagl
― stet, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 08:15 (eleven years ago) link
It was something along the lines of "You've let your dead dad down".
― Alba, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 08:17 (eleven years ago) link
Oh. I see. It then escalated into tweets like "I'll stick a knife down your throat" to people who attacked him
