        I've made the mistake of following Ben Carson. Now I read all his tweets in the sarcastic voice of Robert Guillaume.

        And then seethe.

          I've created a personal account again. Just too many things I want to follow - especially local stuff and sports.

            If you put some sort of white-noise protection on, it can be ok.

              I''m having a memory lapse.

              I had an idea that it would be fun to have a friendly competition to see who could write the most irritatingly smug and cloying twitter bio about themselves. The catch is that it all has to be technically true.

              But did we already do that? I feel like we did but I can't find it. Maybe we didn't.

                I don't remember anything about that. I was away from otf for a year.

                I think mine is cloying enough, and hopefully, my avatar, whilst clever, is sickeningly colourful.

                  Curt Schilling (famous baseball pitcher, and Trump shill) has a Twitter account and his bio says:

                  5 words: Charming smile. Illuminating personality.

                    Depends on your platform.

                    On twitter.com:
                    Log in to your account on twitter.com and go to your Account settings page.
                    Under Content, look for Timeline and toggle the box next to Show me the best Tweets first to change the setting.

                    Twitter for iOS:
                    On your profile, tap the gear icon and select Settings.
                    Tap the account whose settings you’d like to adjust.
                    Under Timeline, tap Timeline personalization.
                    Next to Show me the best Tweets first, tap to turn it off.

                    Twitter for Android:
                    Tap the overflow icon
                    Tap Settings.
                    Tap Timeline.
                    Next to Show me the best Tweets first, uncheck the box to turn it off.
                    If only I had a clue what an "overflow" icon is ...

                                Hehehe.

                                Nah, some journalist has linked a story to some RWNJ website, and I want to grab it before he deletes it. The journalist concerned works for a local newspaper owned by Shilldon Adelson, AND works for CBS too.

                                I am on his case.

                                  I think screenshots are the quickest and easiest means of preservation.

                                    And now, he has compared Harry Reid to Emperor Palpatine.

                                    (And thanks, screengrabbed).

                                    The twat is really showing his true colours now that Trump is the man who would be king.

                                      Trump's Twitter feed is surreal. This literally doesn't feel like real life.

                                        I am pretty certain that at least half of his (Trump) followers are bots, and a quarter are of people who hate him (me included).

                                          Why was I not told about @BritishSigns ?

                                          Look at it.

                                                Not recently. But I am blocked after pointing out the Eagles of Death Metal also weren't real eagles.
