My own memory plus search
It doesn't always work. I remembered Homochirality for the video I wanted to but didn't find, so substituted that short 'wtf was that' piece
TweetDeck helps, search results always by latest, & collections for 'working memory' for extensive threads
Conversation
I also try & avoid putting my own opinions into some links (esp youtube vids) b/c I know (or at least suspect) that I'll be able to use them for multiple purposes later.
TweetDeck is unique in that it'll let me quote tweet & then, in the QT dialog, let me hit Reply on any tweet
Quote Tweet
Reply Quote Tweets (RQTs) combine a Quote Tweet (QT) with a Reply. RQTs are possibly the most powerful way to use Twitter. They have a multitude of uses from thread maintenance to thread branching to linking different people & concepts together.

I also make databases. I have a bunch of search tweets, some work on hashtags in content tweets, most work on metadata quote tweets.
To keep track of my search tweets I made the below.
The changes to search b/c of new twitter UI are bothersome to me since less control for users

If I make a search tweet of search tweets, I'd have a search tweet I could search search tweets from.

V. cool. Genius, even.
I think a bit outside of my style, unfortunately. More of an Old Gods partisan myself.

The frustrating part for me is that there are supposedly hundreds of millions of tweeple yet I have not seen anyone else do similar stuff w/in twitter
I want to find the others
(There was the tweetdeck groups fraud, but I was too innocent to think of that on my own. Shit.)

Have you thought about reversing the arrow? Turning that unusual mind of yours onto sometimes else?

May be too late for me
I've been here since age 4 but retained Norwegian citizenship in hopes of one day returning, even if only to retire (and vote, I've never voted in my life)
Instead I expect to die in poverty here in the USA.
I already died once, so don't mind too much.

This arrow by mathematician and sculptor Kokichi Sugihara can't point left. Here's how it works: It's 3D-printed with a bunch of curves our brains don't register.

If there's a practical problem with moving here, maybe I can help.
If it's a problem that can't be addressed, that's rough!

Theoretically I could stay w/my half-sister & her husband till I found someplace to live
Difficulties include my partner doesn't want to leave USA & hard to blame her. I also may die before she retires
So cold. Can't afford to winter in Spain.
Winning the lottery would help

Nonetheless your offer of assistance is extremely appreciated & touching
But Norway is no longer the land I remember from my youth
Now they have McDonalds, where are the open-faced, herring-topped sandwiches I remember?

Well my visitations since my youth (I went almost every year until late teens) have been sparse & restricted in mobility. I don't feel comfortable navigating on my own.
e.g. my pronunciation is fine but vocabulary extremely limited hence I sound like a retard.
