Still waiting to see where most folks will land (the mast is looking like a front runner) but sticking around this hellscape is untenable. I'm "XStylus" on every platform on Muskrat's ban list, plus Reddit, Tumblr, Hive, and Discord (XStylus#2761). Sell your Teslas.

Getting ready to head back home to SoCal. Flying via Southwest with a connecting flight in Denver, and our initial flight is already 25min behind schedule. Wish me lotza’ luck.

As crappy as 2022 was, the cherry on top is catching a cold. 2018 was my worst year ever until 2022 came along. In fact, every year since 2015 has been pretty crappy. Hopefully it only goes up from here. Happy new year, y’all. May 2022 roast in hell.

@bringliamhomeMA
Liam took a flight from Massachusetts to LAX last week and was living in the airport, periodically texting family and friends. Unfortunately, due to his mental health diagnosis, he is no longer making contact or eating and we do not know where he is. Please help!

Liam is currently missing. He was last seen in the LAX area on 12/14. We are asking for RTs to assist in getting Liam home and the help he needs. LAX Police/LAPD have said they cannot assist in keeping an eye out for Liam. Call/text with information: 508-456-7859

SoCal peeps, this is an AMV community friend (a very talented one) with a psychotic illness who needs help. If you’re in the LA area, please keep an eye out for this person and help us bring them home.

So apparently if you mention one of the banned social media sites in your profile or in a pinned tweet, your username is search banned.

Multiple folk are messaging me (both on and off Twitter) to say that I and several other major Twitter accounts no longer appear in searches or feeds. I'm going to assume it's because of their new policy colliding with my bio or my pinned tweet. This is hilarious. 😂

This was my tool. It would have used and respected rate limits if Twitter would return them like they do on most of their other endpoints. Would have also been nice if Twitter reached out instead of just fully disabling it.

Twitter experienced slight degradation of service today from an old 3rd party tool used to block accounts that had no rate limit (sigh). Should be fixed now.

Twitter's charm is that it forces you to get to the point as short and succinctly as possible. No wordiness. Otherwise it'd just be Facebook.

Crest/Banner of the Stars DVD are on sale at Amazon _and_ RightStuf. Uggghhhh... I don't want to buy DVDs anymore, but it seems highly doubtful that Funiroll will be doing a BD of it any any point, despite there being BD masters from the JPN release.

The team at the newly popular Twitter alternative Hive is in over its head. The company has now taken the fairly radical step of fully shutting down its servers for a couple of days in response to concerns raised by security researchers.

Twitter alternative Hive shuts down its app to fix critical security issues
It's an unusual way to patch bugs, to say the least, and one that raises questions about the development workflow at the company.

I sense a translator saltier than a lake in Utah. Client: "No 'adaptation'! Translate directly, like you're supposed to!" [Translator does.] Client: "WTF is this?" Translator: "You wanted literal, you got literal. If you want a do-over, it'll cost you." Client: "This is fine."
