Quote from: Ex_GC on July 01, 2022, 11:56:23 AMIt reminds me of that quote about how stupid people are always full of confidence
Isn't that what Dunning-Kruger is?

I was thinking of the Bukowski quote but yes

"The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence"

We'll see, she last tweeted 3 mins before twitter notified of the status of the complaint though she's more likely to get a temporary suspension or just need to remove the original tweet.

EDIT: she's still tweeting, oh well

She's drawn a lot of heat since the Helen Joyce eugenics podcast.

How do you mean?

As for Helen Staniland you would think her days on Twitter are soon to be numbered. Wonder how she got it back in the first place

A Staniland Twitter sock would be even easier to spot than one of BC's.

She would be constantly asking "The RealWoman34525 Question"

Staniland isn't a woman, she is all women.

Ex_GC

Helen Staniland and Katy Montgomerie were tweeting. Helen kept calling Katy by her surname. Aidan Comerford said please call her by her first name, she's a human being and deserves that. Helen's reply was "I'm not on first name terms with Montgomerie". So disingenuous

New Whitney Houston biopic looks shite.


Gasp! the horror!

Helen losing her twitter would break her mind, she's just like Graham she genuinely does feel compelled to argue with people every day. She has nearly 90'000 tweets.

If they made her go cold turkey, on top of her feeling wronged by whatever infraction gets her permanantely suspended, she'd go ballistic.

But it could happen since Twitter has become a little bit better about reporting on this kind of thing, and following through on bans and suspensions.


Ex_GC

I watched a few minutes of her latest "wine with women" show and she claimed to need wine "because I received a 12 hour ban from Twitter". I couldn't believe it, she's a grown ass adult and she can't comprehend even 12 hours without Twitter

The only reason I assumed that Glinner reads these threads is because he has not got a job and sits all day on the internet complaining and attacking trans people saying it is journalism.

But I get Barry's point that he has such a short attention span that anything over 280 charac*break for Glinner to wake up*ters sends him to sleep.

He's shat out at least two griefblogs featuring screenshots of posts from Glinner threads. Collected by "a friend" of course

Quote from: Blumf on July 01, 2022, 12:00:38 PMKeep meaning to ask this; why do all these AI image things think Graham looks like Stuart Maconie?

Yes!! Been meaning to ask the same thing, why does it keep using the same dozen or so pictures each of Linehan and Maconie (that popular songwriting duo)

Usually if you tweet something Twitter deems offensive, the first time they'll give you a warning and ask you to delete it to get your account back. Usually you also get a short ban (24 hours or so.)

The second time, much the same, but you'll get a longer ban (around a week.)

Third time? Dunno. I've never got that far, but I'd assume permaban,

(I've only ever had my tweets reported for using the word "cunt" at mutual followers, who didn't report it. Cursed American algorithms taking offence on behalf of others who didn't.)

Ex_GC

It really is amazing that BC managed to keep his Twitter account for as long as he did based on that

thr0b

Through the site and the official app, it now gives you time to check before you post; it won't refuse to put something offensive, but says "Most people don't send Tweets like this - are you sure?"

Essentially, if you post something the algorithm deems to be offensive in advance, and you go ahead anyway, it's on you. I suspect however that it'll be mostly looking for racism, porn, swear words that Americans hate but Brits love, and not the Penis Lady and Her Penis Question.

Whenever I have a worse-than-usual depression day, I remind myself that at least I'm not Graham Linehan or Helen Penisland. Jfc what a pair of absolute losers.

Sometimes I think someone should stand outside his apartment building with a boom box that's just a recording of someone yelling LOG OFF at him, as in the famous Dril tweet.

I mean, I know that would also be a shitty thing to do because doxxing and harassment, so don't actually do that please, it's one of those weird thoughts I have. Funny on a sitcom or a tweet, not a good thing to do irl. Feel free to use this in the Gary Glinner show.

But seriously, Graham and Helen, you guys really need to log off.
