losing twitter is like losing the library of alexandria if the library of alexandria was 80% hate crimes but also 20% the most wonderful conversations and stories to ever exist

That’s a quote-worthy post. Earns a follow sight unseen!

There are friends and relatives whose last words to me are on Twitter. I'm hanging on while I can.

I’m sure it was!

Agreed 😢

Nowhere else could I learn about egg smell in the dishwasher, see horrors I never wanted to witness, annoy op ed columnists and shitpost in one, continuous stream of conciouness. Its what I imagine doing speed is like, but with information...

It’s not 80% hate crimes. It’s at least 50% vapid worthless garbage.

I wonder if this too will set back civilization a thousand years?

I mean, if there's a true library of Alexandria on the internet, it's the internet archive: archive.org

Where else on the Internet can you just say "the rice truck" and EVERYONE knows.

So like the actual library of Alexandria?
