So the twitter algorithm decided it was a good idea to start showing me extremely violent videos in the last 24 hours. In the last few weeks, it decided it wanted to constantly show me advertisements for prostitutes. This is it for me. Thanks for tuning in!

@chfsrh I know how to quit, both with saving the file and without. I know how to jump to a specific line in a file. Otherwise, I just use emacs (and sometimes Sublime text).

@DistroKid * Fans of the 1960s Spider-man cartoon might like the track "Swing & Dig It". * The track "ABC" was used by @ckuaradio radio (Alberta) on a promotional CD. * The track "Aw gee minor" was used on the soundtrack of a movie called "8 1/2 Short Films about Zombies".

In 1998, I was in a jazz band called "Mole City" and we made a CD. It's now on Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube Music. etc. (Thanks @DistroKid!). open.spotify.com/album/2RGKRZvW…

Looking at some photos from a trip to France seven years ago, I regret not ordering the super ass gyros ...

@fakehistoryhunt @chuckcanady Your recent posts remind me of the first meme I made, nine years ago (sadly it never went viral).

@sit_walk @DistroKid Thanks for the tip, Richard. My old band Mole City is now on DistroKid too, hopefully on Spotify, etc, in a few days ... distrokid.com/hyperfollow/mo…

@ddubthedev If you see this tweet feel free to mention one of your favourite paintings. This is one of the many Peacable Kingdom's by Edward Hicks. (While growing up, a print of this version was in my family home.)

@sit_walk How? I looked into this about five years ago and there were some barriers to entry (e.g., have a record label) that made it difficult.

@andrewhoyer It doesn't seem that long ago when I could go into a Costco with $120 and leave with an entire boneless rib (although on reflection, it was probably at least 10 years ago).

@SteveThePylon I have to confess, I do occasionally enjoy the thrill of getting a TGTG surprise bag. Will have to try the PACT coffee one sometime. Here's a few good ones I got in the summer ...
