Maybe, maybe, how quick they have taken it down has to do with them realizing that the office of the fucking legal team of the city of San Francisco is ACROSS THE STREET from Twitter HQ
Seriously.
How.
Every.

Dumb.
Holy shit.
I would like to point out, someone had a serious seizure set off by that thing and was sent to hospital because of it. It wasn’t just “obnoxious” it was downright deadly.

Hello, this is Ellie’s girlfriend. To be even be typing this upsets me. In the early hours this morning, Ellie’s epilepsy was triggered by the new X advertising, which has left her fighting for her life. A brand isn’t worth someone fighting for there life for. #DodgeTheEx ]
Confirmed: the stunt with the dangerously-bright X logo and its strobe effect predictably caused physical harm. This is exactly why strobe lights need to be removed completely from the public sphere, and why 100% informed consent should be the bare minimum requirement for the use of strobe lights.
Strobe lights have their time and place, and a public street is NEVER that time nor place.
i’m a taylor swift centrist. she makes perfectly tolerable pop music that i can’t imagine really getting into. dunno what it is about her that makes so many people go insane
i listen to one of these relatively bland and inoffensive but nonetheless well-crafted pop songs and everyone around me demands that i proclaim it a masterpiece or artistically bankrupt or whatever. i just want to grill for god’s sake
my brother started calling our cat “doobie brother” which he then lengthened to “dubious brother” and has since morphed into “brother dubious” like he’s some sort of fucked up little monk
brother dubious
“My liege, I’m afraid I have reason to believe your concubine plots against you. Worry not, your eminence, you can still trust me, of course…”
Since this was so fun last time (and since they added more poll options!) I wanted to do it just one more time. PLEASE DON’T SPOIL IT IN THE TAGS/REPLIES until AFTER THE POLL ENDS. And this time you long-time Discworld fans get your ’see results’ option, even if it means one less fun fact about Discworld.
The answer will be posted at the end of the week when the poll is over.
as a kid i had one of those “there’s a monster under my bed” moments except real.
every night i would cry about a ghost or something trying to scare me by knocking on my bedroom windows and walls. like, really loudly, every hour or so, every night. only at night. so my dad was like “heh okay kiddo let’s check it out :) ah see? there’s nothing here :)” and left.
until years later he admitted to me that he did in fact hear the unexplainable knocking when he slept in that room one night, and it kept him awake with fear. and suddenly felt awful for not believing little kid me.
imagine your kid being like “daddy there’s a demon in my closet” and you being like ok son lemme just check that for you :). and you open the door and there’s a demon in the closet

If your download doesn’t appear within 5 minutes please try again as the tooling on the back end is very complicated for reasons I won’t get into here and might error out for reasons that are out of my control
If people are interested I have a big update in the works after which I plan on making the code open source so anyone can host it
