idea: program that analyzes Twitter interactions, finds correlations & draws insights from them, e.g. Alice is more likely to like Bob's tweet if it's about plants, Bob never likes any of Alice's tweets that mention Eve, etc

it's also the tiniest bit evil but 😈

I was hoping the yes votes would explain but that would be neither inscrutable nor illegible I guess 😤😤😤

watching the other swan break down & grieve & mourn was... intense. same goes for when Bambi's mother was shot & killed. and this was live-action so I think that made it the tiniest bit more traumatizing to me as a young child

Show thread

I was a dramatic kid. when I was 8 I watched the Soviet live-action adaptation of Bambi. after a scene where one of the swans of a swan couple is shot & killed, I couldn't bear to look at *the color white*. went over to my grandparents' and cried when I saw their tablecloth.

kinda wonder how this stacks up against other reactions to going viral, e.g. for tweets there's linking to your SoundCloud (not $$ = better?), paid product promo (galaxy/sunset lights) (🤢), linking to petitions / non-profit donations (selfless so I guess it's better?), etc

@goblinodds sounds like burnout/depression at least in part caused by unclear motivations and drive; this can happen when you don't have a way to justify your suffering to yourself, tie it to some larger meaningful goal;…
