I didn't know you could send DMs on Twitter. That seems weird to me. I always viewed it as a mostly one-way medium for communication. Shows how much I know about social media.

Oof. There's always been a 'reply' button, too, which appends your tweet to the original, meaning every single one is like a forum thread of indeterminate length. It wouldn't be very social if everyone was just shouting into the ether, a vast majority of users are there having public conversations.

That sounds terrible. I guess it's a good way to get people to indulge in their narcissistic tendencies, but it can't be good for much else. I think I made the right call by staying out of it!

Still better than Discord, which might very well be the absolute "worst" forum/chat software ever made.

Another instance of "incels gonna incel". If they want to show off their little dicks so much they should just join one of many Nazi cosplay groups like Proud Boys or Patriot Butt Boys or something, and they can diddle each other.

Oh great, not only do both deus ex and bio series suck, now they are related.
