Darkseid, looking at a shirt with multiple swirling colors brought back for him from earth: What *is* this? Kalibak: We tie-dyed for Darkseid.

Sometimes I think to myself, why did they never make a sequel to Tron Legacy in the last 11 years? But now that Daft Punk have split up, they probably never will.

Would that I were wrong.

This fight is going to live in my brain forever.

Rest in Peace, TweetDeck. You were always the best way to experience this site.

Well, there it is. Opened the browser and TD had logged me out, and when I logged back in it forced me into the new TD, which I won't be paying for. That's all my RP accounts now scattered to the wind, as I can't possibly remember all those logins. I think I'm probably done.

TD today prompted me to try "the new TD", and now replies to tweets are no longer showing on TD. I think they've finally started to come for the last bastion of old Twitter. It's been a good run, y'all.

Saber Alter v Rider is still fantastic. That is all.

A) Forgot that Zealot was in DC proper these days. B) Big Barda and Zealot teaming up was a thing I never knew I needed in my life, but am now entirely onboard with.

I like that all my old RP accounts are now just a collection of "Twitter threatened to remove idle accounts, better post a single new tweet" timelines. Just because I don't write them anymore doesn't mean I want them gone as long as this site is still around.

Took a random glance back at my eternally pointy-eared RP account, and damn I was actually pretty good at this whole "RP" thing once upon a time.

Nearly four years to the day since "Tie-dyed for Darkseid". Still such a great tweet.
As it seems that the end may be closer than anticipated, I'll repost a thread with some thoughts on my time here from the other week.
Seems a good time for a tweet. I rarely post here anymore even though I still check in pretty much every day. As such, I wasn't planning on going anywhere, even with the recent shakeups. Though now it's seeming like there may not be anywhere here to stay soon.

DC is deeply saddened at the passing of Kevin Conroy, a legendary actor and the voice of Batman for multiple generations. He will be forever missed by his friends, family, and fans. bit.ly/3tlm10a

I really keep hoping someone says it's not real, and he's not really gone, but it's not that kind of day. Rest In Peace, Legend.
A lot of the right people are saying it. But no where "official" has properly reported it, so I keep hoping someone fucked up, and he's not really gone.

Honestly, I think 95% of my follow list on this account have all always been unverified. I follow a few comic related verified accounts/brands, but so much of what's on this TL are just old RP friends. Thus I don't think I'll have any trouble seeing all your tweets.
Me, sitting on the ground, rocking back and forth hoping that no one tells the new guy about TD being a free feature of the site.
Haven't RP'd here in a few years, but that doesn't mean I won't be sad when the current regime kills Twitter as a roleplaying platform entirely in an effort to "Stop Bots".

I stopped RPing here for a lot of reasons, but it was never the people I wrote with. This site has been many things to many people, but for us it was a canvas of collaborative narrative creativity that may never quite have an equal. I will miss this place if it goes.

But missing the people is something I can do something about. If we wrote together, or used to chat here and were internet pals for a time, hit up my DMs? I'd love to exchange Discord info, catch up with some old friends, and maybe commiserate the potential demise of Twitter.
