Could you take a screenshot when you post this stuff? I really don't want to touch that pile of shit in any way.

I'm not sure a screen shot tells you anything that the url itself doesn't. No need to click on anything.

It’s a big WHOOOSH, but I actually do respect all the people getting as far as reading ‘https://twit…’… and saying ‘fuck that’.
