The hardest thing is trying to get yourself removed from work email lists that you no longer should be on.
Tangentially, moving to a new department at the same company, but no one who emails you recognizes the change and instead you're bombarded with torrential crap that is no longer your problem.

This, in fact, is exactly my current problem.

The trick is to not use twitter.
I like when people in-line good tweets in here but that’s all I need.

I am so glad the internet was trash when I was 16. Sure I wrote some shit on forums, but nobody cared and it was under a different name and most of those forums are gone. Stuff was too slow for video and hot takes were limited to when you were in front of a computer which was maybe an hour or two a day.
Imagine persistent social media from that era in your life jfc. There isn't enough nedroid poison dot gif in the universe.

I would be in a horrible position rn, as I grew up pretty... uh... let's just say on the wrong side of history, as it were.
I want a sandwich for dinner so bad. There's this excellent place in town that makes the best subs. But I've been dieting so right this week. Fun fact: If you eat nothing but kale salads for every meal, your poop turns green.

Part of the reason I got on twitter was people kept inlining tweets where the content was multiple pictures and I couldn’t see the joke or the point the tweeter was trying to make without going on the site and reading the tweet there.

@credeiki it's really not that hard to be decent at fighting games. The execution aspect is tough but it doesn't take years and years or anything. People who get into a local scene go from "how do I do a hadoken" to semifinal placements within a year sometimes.
They're not significantly more difficult than any other competitive real-time game.
What if you did not grow up at a console and struggle a little bit with controllers instead of kbam?
What if you are someone who has practiced a different game assiduously for 5 years and are still terrible at it???
(...I lost 3 games of LoL last night just as I’m trying so hard to push to plat and it’s making me so sad)
LoL is different because it's a team game. It's harder to improve, it's harder to be consistent because your performance depends on others, and it's easy to get rolled by circumstance (stacked enemy teams, one person drops or afks, etc), IMO
also you're obviously not "bad," just because you're not in platinum
I grew up using controllers, but I never used fight sticks and hated them. Then my buddy who was really into Street Fighter convinced me to make the switch to a stick, and I adapted to it over a few months before exceeding my previous ability with a controller. It's just about consistent practice rather than skills embedded from childhood, genuinely.
If you get in a lobby with someone better than you in a fighting game, and just play ten matches, you'll leave having noticeably improved. It's great.
I once played almost a hundred matches in a row with Bizazedo from SE++, just grinding mirror matches, and I think it was like 90 to 6 by the end. He just crushed me. But the next day I annihilated everyone I met in ranked and it was wonderful.
Gold is low elo—it’s def bad. And considering how much investment and effort and thought I put in, it’s just depressing sometimes. (...I will be happy if I cross that line into plat. I did before but only during the time in between ranked seasons when no one is tryharding, so it doesn’t count)
Yeah, the shorter matchups and more focused skill set seem great for building skill in a fighting game; I think that’s part of what makes it seem cool. But the real issue is that I would have to stop playing league and get good at this instead, and I don’t want to do that. (The secondary issue is the controller thing.)
Eep my meeting is in three minutes and I’m still in the metro station and not at the office!
...want to play some Jhin/karma some time? I do best with aggressive/constant poke lanes—been having issues with Janna supports and with thresh/shen who are misjudging all ins.
Yesss what time are you home
Tbh probably best not today cause I have no brain and ahould only play normals but tomorrow I will be back by 7 or so if not earlier @Casual Eddy
Speaking of no brain, I lost my gym bag on the way to the office, andit had all of my climbing gear in it and that is expensive to replace and I liked my stuff and I wanted to eat the Ethiopian food in it too ;_;
But I did deliver a great meeting to our hostile client (while on the phone not looking at a slide deck) and she liked it and was really friendly (confusing; not sure what’s with the attitude shift)

Also, like, as a reporter how do you write stories where you dig up all the cancel stuff from people’s past and not clean up your own twitter????
Maybe there’s something I’m missing here as not a twitter person

Is it even possible to clean twitter? Like, don't deleted tweets still exist somewhere, if the investigator is willing to look hard enough? Or is it just if the person was high profile enough that someone took a screenshot before it was deleted?
Observation: When I talk to my coworkers, work goes away. But when I talk to my boss, more work appears.
Conclusion: I will no longer talk to my boss.
This is actually a serious problem with one of the managers where I work
They were complaining that nobody tells them about problems until they're crises, but the reason for that is that it is impossible to talk to them without being delegated whatever task they were thinking about at the time, however unrelated
So people don't take problems to them, because they'll walk away from that conversation with two problems

I got a leaky drip pan on my AC. Should I just stick a bucket in there? If the drain was flush with the bottom, this would be fine. Landlord keeps putting off fixing it.

You can easily delete tweets and if you weren't famous before deleting them, most likely no copies will survive and there won't be much evidence they existed. Nobody would care to screenshot them. There will be a few stray replies from your friends that show the parent tweet as "this tweet is no longer available" but you're flagged in the reply. Same with retweets. That's it.

Just to be clear, the reporter did not try to dig up cancel stuff on King. He asked about the prior tweets in addition to several other things during an interview for a puff piece on King and king apologized publicly and deleted the tweets before the article was written. In all likelihood, the tweets would not have even been mentioned in the article if not for kings public apology. The article itself was fairly glowing about him.

There's not like a internet archive or some shit stashing it somewhere?

Someone could be doing that but I'm not aware of any publicly searchable resource doing this for everyone on twitter. Only famous people are watched. It would be too hard.
