Weaseling my way out of a one-sided fairy bargain with a masterwork of circuitous logic. The elf-lord congratulates me for my cleverness in a tone of genuine admiration, then immediately stabs me in the face.

Would be asleep right now, but there are Fictional Characters to imagine in emotional situations. You know how it is.
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.
Most social media platforms want you to stick around and keep scrolling for as long as possible. Twitter, meanwhile, wants you to fuck off. You're done for the day, get out.
This is supposed to make the platform more profitable somehow.
the real older gen z experience is thinking you were a millennial for the first few years you were on the internet because "gen z" hadn't actually been established yet
burning to death because i can’t remember the secret maneuver that’s different from every other car on earth or because i never read the manual or because it’s a rental or because it’s a rideshare or because i’m in the back seat and the driver is incapacitated (due to the fire currently burning us to death) or i’m a child
I see this posted a lot and there’s inevitably someone who will pop up to defend the design as something that has since been fixed or whatever but thing of that is, if they ever thought this was a good idea even once and made that idea commercially available I don’t trust them with a car ever again
one thing about tumblr users isthat they love to disagree with posts. another thing is that they love to do is disagree with things that were not even in the post as if they were
this is just absolutely not true. people do not normally drink printer ink.
Poor Psyduck! I’ll be selling this original mini painting tomorrow on my other account: https://www.instagram.com/oliver_hamlin_sales/
video games explaining mechanics in-canon is my favorite thing
