Since I genuinely didn’t notice the in-hindsight obvious self-referential potential when I tweeted that, yeah… unexpected. Tweets already paid for itself now.

if callback tweets are currency I am very well-off indeed

interesting thing about my "2020 tweet" thread is I can pull a list of newsworthy deaths in seconds
people always ask me things like "what are you trying to do here" but the honest answer is I often don't know until later on

Unexpected though. You might be overengineering it too much at least by my standards

I didn’t plan/expect this one! I mean unless we’re saying “expect the unexpected” means it’s no longer unexpected. I never have any idea what I’m gonna tweet tho

Your extreme hyperthreading on topics of broad interest… you don’t expect a specific opp but you expect a higher rate of opps in general due to the way you reinforce the web of connections. Like a spider expects to catch *something* in its web. I think there’s a tradeoff there
I’ll go another way, it’s like needing to signal farther away or cohere many things at first glance un-related. Threads as katamari damacy.
