So make a burner or don't read the tweet thread while being above using it? Not attacking its just weird to me.

Also, app or browser? Cause I can't get poo poo to load in browser either way but app works like usual. Also half the time it's just Twitter being broken, not an actual issue with account or not

Twitter embeds no longer work if you don't have an account. All you see is the URL. Would people be willing to put up screencaps alongside direct links? This also helps preserve tweets that are deleted after lots of feedback.

I don't have a twitter account and embeds are showing up fine on desktop at least

I still appreciate screencaps but it may be an awful app issue at its core

If it's a fresh Firefox install, you need to disable enhanced tracking protection for the site you want to see the embeds on. So on the forums, go to the little shield left of the url and do the thing.

Yeah, if you got a hot tweet you want to share it'd make sense to just screenshot it because cowards delete their stuff all the time when they become the twitter main character.

I do this when the media in the tweet is small enough to easily rehost on imgur or some such

“Naomi” isn’t a particularly uncommon name, and the only thing that their last names have in common is being single syllables, different single syllables.

I have no idea how people manage to mix them up.

Do people think that Ronald McDonald and Ronald DeSantis are the same guy?

They were both respected writers (until people actually started reading what Wolff wrote) that were contemporaries and did the kind of writing where people were much,much more likely to have heard of it than actually read it.

There's a prominent TERF who goes by Posey Parker and whenever she pops up in the news for something horrible there's always a moment where I have to remind myself that no, one of my favorite character actors is not a horrible person.

I read that interview earlier and I don't blame her for taking the initial job. 500 £ for two days dressed as an oompa loompa being nice to kids? Why not? And then by the time she realized what a poo poo show it was, she'd signed a contract, so she tried her best to make it not awful for the kids for as long as she could before she finally walked out

FF enhanced tracking and your ad block software are by far and away the most likely culprits. Sometimes Twitter does break and do what you're seeing but that isn't hitting anyone else so it's something you've got setup there.
