    An older clip, but I just love everything about it:
    • The zero fucks given and no hesitation as the guy cracks the other guy across the head with a pool cue
    • The pro boxer-quality combination that puts the antagonist out on his feet before he even realizes he done fucked up
    • The guy at the bar who turns around, then slowly turns back and tries to become invisible
    • The guy standing next to the one who gets hit, who deftly dodges the pool cue like he knew this was coming and takes no offense at all to almost getting hit
    • The guys at the back of the bar who watch this scene unfold like it happens every Tuesday
    • White Shirt who steps over the body

    Can we get a style guide entry for how to post tweets? I’m not randomly clicking on X dot com links.

    Yeah, something has been changed. I'm doing what used to give a preview link that you could read and all that results is an x.com link.

    No doubt some here are relieved. :rolleyes:

    Elmo finally dropped Twitter from the URL. It's just X now.

    When you go to embed them and paste the link, change "x.com" to "twitter.com"
    It's a pain in the ass, but it works.

    Should also be able to do it by copying the link from the timestamp.

    I just went down the rabbit hole of a Twitter account called This Account Will Heal Your Depression. Its pretty much what you'd expect - babies, cats, puppies, people being kind to old people, videos of human kindness. I won't promise it won't make you cry, but you won't come out feeling angry, frustrated, or in despair.
