I liked a tweet a couple of weeks ago & it is having significant good irl consequences so I'm all mixed up about it.

you guys it's so much worse than any of us thought... I clicked a tweet in a thread and swear to god it took me to a place with many more tweets... tens of thousands of tweets, and each one more horrifying than the last. a veritable living nightmare. i fear that with these reserves at hand, tweets will soon outnumber posts by an insurmountable margin

A friend who’s fully into the covid conspiracies sent me this post that says Captain America predicted the coronavirus outbreak in 2011, and while its obviously bs, I started fixating on that circled image on the right. pic.twitter.com/N4XywDTZEx— William Mullally 🚮 (@whmullally) June 11, 2020

I'll make out just fine if this is so, but can you not play embedded Twitter videos on ILX or third-party sites now, or is there a glitch in my browser? I can still play YouTubes.

I understand OPs not liking to be tagged in threaded replies that aren't directed at them, but get annoyed that this is perpetually framed as a rudeness/etiquette issue as opposed to a shitty interface issue.

I realise Twitter world cups are anathema to some, but in July, Tom Ewing will be running one on tracks from 1990 and is looking for nominations this week. Here's the current list of nominations:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/1nbefrL-HIkjF0KvPU0ziJddlnx-eEcgAwkliyiiYH8Y/edit?usp=sharing
If any of you are into such things, bung @peoples_pop a tweet with a couple of nominations. Only one of them can be a UK Top 40 hit, but neither has to be. Dance music and hiphop very under-represented at the moment!

It's a promising idea for a sitcom, writer has a minor disagreement on Twitter about something, obsesses about it and ends up destroying his life just because he can't bear to be wrong once. Pretty dark sitcom, in the upside the wage bill for actors would decrease as the show progressed.

did they change what gets included in the number of RTs? i'm suddenly seeing tweets with like 5x more RTs than likes. mainly on ratio'd tweets though. it's messing up my frame of reference. this is extremely important
― ℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Saturday, 27 June 2020 22:51 (three years ago) link
either they're now including replies to RTs as RTs or they're including quote tweets as RTs and they weren't before? that would make sense i guess
― ℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Saturday, 27 June 2020 22:53 (three years ago) link
The latter, I understand
― Andrew Farrell, Saturday, 27 June 2020 23:11 (three years ago) link
Any action to bring about the death of the ratio is of course good, in itself and as a step towards the death of Twitter.

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
― mark s, Sunday, 28 June 2020 12:32 (three years ago) link
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?"
