Bix (Twitter)Just briefly, I feel compelled to point out that the “small pieces loosely joined” which Chris Aldrich mentions and which CJ Eller notes was a David Weinberger thing for which I once ran a “gang blog”. https://t.co/CErkZ2GrhT

Working on the book. When it goes live on the web, it will be published as a Micro.blog-hosted site with a little JavaScript for auth. The new Lanyon theme’s sidebar works great for the table of contents. The draft is 50 short (micro!) chapters in 6 parts. pic.twitter.com/OWlKGeeh4a

Michael Steele (Twitter)Dude! You realize she’s testifying LIVE?! Amb. Yovanovitch will respond to this tweet...yup, there it is. You just made her case of intimidation. Is no one in the room with you? https://t.co/RdKg7VqqVg
— Michael Steele (@MichaelSteele) November 15, 2019Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad. She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors.

- Saw this article/site & wanted to share with you
- here is a thing about your favourite thing
- I would spend unstructured time with you
- you can share my silence
- I researched your problem, here are your options/1- I love your project so much I thought of some ways to make it even better
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019
- do you need a ride home from your mundane errand that should be no big deal but is actually a Big Deal?
- I see you're freaking out. That's cool I will chill here in silence until you need me.
- (thumbs up)- I will make that phone call/book that appointment so you don't have to.
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019
- I knew you would forget so I did X- this is your reminder to do the self care thing.
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019
- do the self care thing.
- do the self care thing.
- I'm not getting off the phone until you confirm you have done the thing.- we made plans and I had a shitty day on the day but I didn't cancel because I knew I would enjoy seeing you more than I would enjoy staying home.
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019
- You screwed up something people don't usually screw up and you're probably embarrassed so here is a story of my best screwup.- You once told me about a completely irrational thing you hate and now I remember not to do it/to keep it away from you every time.
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019
- I learned your allergies/sensitivities. Please confirm if these ideas I have for avoiding them are helpful.- You mentioned one of your health conditions the other day and I have no background in it but I read everything I could and now I have follow up questions.
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 15, 2019This went viral! Some points to clarify:
— SaveTheNeurotypicals (@SNeurotypicals) November 16, 2019
- "neurodivergent" is an umbrella term for people with conditions like autism, ADHD, OCD, DID, bipolar etc.
- no, neurotypicals don't "do this too". NDs do these things repeatedly and sometimes exclusively, & put in a shit ton of time. (hand pointing down)I suspect this is so relatable because these are things anyone with anxiety might be drawn to, instead of more theatrical/socially demanding forms of love. NDs often have social anxiety or other issues impacting our relationships, and NTs may as well, for different reasons.

Laura Gibbs (Twitter)oh my gosh: how did I not know about this counting-out system called Yan-Tan...?!

I was looking up something about the nursery rhyme Hickory Dickory Dock, which some people think is a counting out rhyme, and that led to this British sheep-counting system: https://t.co/NWfJgyicB6 pic.twitter.com/azXjrpo8ob

Vicki Boykis on Twitter (Twitter)I can forgive Twitter for stuff like,,,destroying the free world and inciting cancel culture, but I cannot forgive it for taking away the direct link to my profile picture, because I used that link all the time for speaking bios.

Why not keep your avatar on a website you own and control? If it’s at a permalink you control, you can even replace the photo and those who hotlink/transclude it will allow you to update it automatically over time. As an example, I keep one of me at https://www.boffosocko.com/logo.jpg. Having a permalink to my own avatar was the only reason I got a website, and now look what I’ve gotten myself into…
If I recall correctly, when you delete or replace those Twitter avatars, the old links go dead and they generate a new link anyway.
