I have never felt so validated in never having given up on Tumblr.
IT GETS WORSE!
"This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself. The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying. In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right. The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in. This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS. Unbelievable. It's amateur hour."
So he artificially limited the number of tweets you can see per day with a "free" account.
Once you hit your limit, it stops you from loading the page. But it also doesn't know WHY it isn't loading, so it keeps TRYING.
Twitter is literally hitting itself in the face ten times per second per user.
This is so completely amateurish it's unbelievable. It's like putting your car in neutral and slamming your foot on the gas until your engine redlines and then wondering why it's making a horrible noise and a terrible smell but not going anywhere.
It gets worse
This is so comically bad I don’t how to explain it to people who aren’t chronically online l😂😂😂
I mean people of a certain age use Twitter for everything from talking to friends to getting news
Its like, imagine if your tv just turned off after you watched it for two hours and couldn't be turned back on from 24 hours
No it's absolutely terrible. There are people who freelance and are artists who do most of their finding of work on Twitter.
It really sucks for those people.
oh if only he would just kill himself. he has to understand the power to improve his situation is in his own hands! all he has to do is give sloppy to a loaded pistol with the safety off.
Hey. You know there's a real person who's the OP of this post, right? And every time you put your bullshit "he should kill himself" in my notes, I have to read it, right?
Don't.
other people have said this but elon musk might actually be the dumbest person alive for thinking it’s a good idea to limit views on a website that makes money through advertising
a bunch of ppl who run websites have pointed out that the first thing that platforms/hosts will do if u don't pay your bills is to rate limit you, the limiting views thing is just elon's PR copefest in my opinion
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Funniest thing about the "chai tea" meaning "tea tea" to me is that I'm Czech and the Czech word for tea is "čaj" which is pronounced "chai" and you know what we actually - no joke - call chai tea?
"chai čaj"
We literally call it chai chai we DO call it tea tea we literally pronounce it chai chai it's a thing
Another inhumane ruling from our famously corrupt Supreme Court

GRADE SCHOOL SJWS stop using social justice language to explain shit to your conservative parents IT’S NOT GONNA GO THROUGH now all they have are some new words to make fun of. don’t tell your mom she’s being fatphobic tell her she’s being a dick
I definitely make spaghetti sauce extremely wrong but I'm not going to stop
Chop 1 onion and put it in a pot.
Add 1 or 2 cans of diced tomatoes. Whatever makes the ratio of onion look right.
Add a ridiculous amount of frozen peas. Peas should make up a notable portion of this sauce.
Add frozen corn also if you wanna be real fancy. If I have bacon, I'll add that too, but I very rarely have bacon.
Cook on HIGH.
While sauce is cooking, grab the nearest bottle of mixed spices that isn't obviously for desserts. Add some. How much? I dunno, enough that you feel like you've added seasoning so it's technically cooking. (For me this is most often a mix called Moroccan, but it could be anything. I've reorganised my kitchen recently so tonight it was something called Pizza Topping.)
If you happen to have green herbs lying around, add those too. Whatever you have on hand that's green.
Let the sauce boil on HIGH until all the water is gone. Stir occasionally so the saucepan will be easier to clean later. Serve on cooked spaghetti noodles with no cheese.
Today I added a new step called "while the sauce is cooking, duck out for 15 seconds to post about spaghetti sauce on Tumblr, then get distracted and forget you are cooking." This adds a novel Extremely Burnt edge to the flavour profile.
I am not Italian, or of Italian descent by *any* stretch of the imagination.
I am also not one of those "cooking purists", who believes that everything must be done in a specific/ traditional way (unless you are making a cooking video with the title "how to make x" in which case if you don't specify mid video that your way is not traditional god help you).
I am a firm believer in "If it tastes good, then it is correct for you".
Except in this case.
This hurts every cooking bone in my body. The latent ancestors in my soul. The judgmental elf in my brain just bit a cyanide capsule.
Why? The spices. Using a different spice mix every time, based on what is ready at hand just ... hurts.
Absolurl I deranged, Derin. Food crimes.
I don't know what sweating the onions means
It means. It means you cook em a little in a pan with a bit of oil first.
A pan? How many dishes do you want me to have to wash here?
I mean you can also do it in the same pot you're making the spaghetti sauce in! The important thing is the onions get a little cooked before the wet stuff goes in, so they're not so wet and limp and boiled....
Honestly this depends entirely on whether I remember to chop an onion first or I find the can opener for the tomatoes first. The ingredients go in in whatever order they go in.
Derin who hurt you
A pack of wild chefs herded my mother off a cliff
Theres probably a hit out on you for this
What kind of stupid idiot would waste money assassinating someone who's so clearly going to accidentally poison themself for free at some point
Well when you put it like that it sounds bad
You've never met me but I want you to know that you have described exactly how I make pasta sauce
We shall have a summer wedding
We won't pass down our pasta sauce recipe to our children. They will just know
soxy i'm sorry but what the fuck does "crab rangoon is a food thats an animal" supposed to mean
i bet u feel so stupid rn. theyre grazing
Years ago I overheard (eavesdropped upon) a telephone conversation between a public parks official and a golf course owner.
Parks Official: No sir, you cannot
Parks Official: No. They are a protected species
Parks Official: You CANNOT shoot them
Parks Official: Or poison them, no. Or trap them
Parks Official: If you like, we can-- no, I'm it. I'm the ranking official here. There's nobody above me. My boss? You mean... the governor's office? Sure, I guess. Okay bye
After he hung up, he gave me this thousand-yard stare before answering my unvoiced question.
"There's a flock of flamingos at the 9th green disrupting golfers. He wanted permission to go out there with a shotgun and take care of matters, but sensed there might be... legal ramifications. So he called us."
I laughed. "Does that happen often?"
"Oh, we get calls like that a couple times a month."
Country clubs should be burned to the ground and their golf courses turned into community gardens i am 10000% serious
Was golf created for the sole purpose of hoarding ridiculously large amounts of land just to brag about how little they use it?
Yes, literally.
"I've been thinking about" something I've thought of for 5 seconds
"it just occurred to me" this has been bugging me for 11 years.

So you just want to see old mens fat stomachs out all over the place?
