I am not at all amazed that john cusack has been shown to have mostly the right stances but be kind of ephemerally dumb and very horny based on his twitter interactionspeeling back that thin curtain is something twitter has given us. if I am on the verge of celebrity I’m going to change my name and then have one of the Gravel teens be paid to run my new account

if i ever actually got into twitter, i could probably lose years of my life on there.
i don't understand how journalists get anything done when they tweet every 2 hours.

it's engrossing and massively self-referential in the manner of like, finnegans wake, but that's why it's important to steer clear, avoid the siren's call, whatever

the most insane and thrillingly dystopian part of it these days is that people are always accusing others of being russian bots or trolls spreading disinformation

following/unfollowing anonymously and refraining from posting yourself is the only way to go imo

I get the retweet as example, when someone with a lot of followers retweets weird abuse or comments going “what the heck”but at the same fine, the abusive tweeter is like some guy who has five followers, fifty tweets total, and most of them are retweets of barstool sports or perpetual harassment of some chick with an onlyfans link
― babu frik fan account (mh), Wednesday, 29 January 2020 04:31 (four years ago) link
I have a tiny number of followers that see my insanely rare tweets but they’re all irl friends, ilx people, local people I interact with on twitter, and some that I’ve branched our with on those linesif I was a brooklyn media person I’d inevitably get retweeted a couple times by a peer who had a following and pick up people, then feel the need to feed the machine and go insane

Is the web version just broken half the time for anyone else or is it just me? Even going to 'twitter.com' in my browser leads to 'Something went wrong - try again'
― Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Friday, 28 February 2020 13:11 (four years ago) link
This is a dumb-ass answer, but are you logged in?
Seriously, Twitter.com is the only required-registration website I go to that doesn't return me to a log-in page when I just click over to it haphazardly. If I click on a Twitter link from here or whatever, and I'm not already logged in, I always get that "Something went wrong" prompt. I then manually have to go to Twitter.com to sign in.
― pplains, Friday, 28 February 2020 14:09 (four years ago) link
its pretty funny that they cant make a website that works good
― lag∞n, Friday, 28 February 2020 14:10 (four years ago) link
theres all sorts of other minor bugs and annoyances w it too
Yeah I'm logged in
So amateurish that it redirects to 'twitter.com/home' as well, like, what is this, fuckin go.com ??
