      I’m on Hank’s page on this, I think everyone agrees with him, and my proclivity towards correcting the use of twitter/tweet is deliberate absurdism to point out X is fucking stupid and maybe you should find an alternative.

      it’s pronounced Xitter, btw.

      I will disagree with him on toots for Mastodon. It’s just a great.

          Accurate description of the average shortform post, whether it’s a tweet a toot or a skeet.

            skeet is stupid too. so is bleet. they all sound like trying too hard to catch the tweet fame. it’s thoroughly uncool. like when bing tried to be a verb like google

      Drag is disappointed that Hank is still on Twitter. Drag respects Hank and doesn’t want him giving the Nazis his time and energy
