    Consider the Twitter thread which quote tweets all threads which don't quote tweet themselves. Does it quote tweet itself?

        Reading Logicomix right now and Bernard is still searching for a way to solve the paradox he discovered. Have you read it? @bhi5hmarajhttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6493321-logicomix …

        Dude. Logicomix is great! After you're done with it, check out the first few chapters of Ernst Nagel's book(or all of it lol). It stays interesting while giving you a taste of the real thing.

        Add the thread to itself from a separate account and then deactivate that account.

        This reminds me of @primalpoly's question re: which philosopher of ol' would ace Twitter and that we must must keep hypothetical Bertrand Russell off the grounds or he will drive us all insane

        If it processes itself first, then yes, and then no, and then yes, until its repeated self-QT’ing and deletions surpass Twitter’s usage limits and the account is locked. If it starts with the oldest threads, it will never get to QT itself before the account is locked.

        Other threads it quotes can change after it quotes them, as well.

        An intuitionist would require you to display this tweet thread. There are no tweet threads in Plato's heaven!
