This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.

The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.

In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.

The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.

This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.

Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.

I wrote a short goodbye post on Reddit as we enter the last hours of Apollo. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the support over the years, it’s truly been the journey and dream of a lifetime building this app and meeting so many people. 🥰💙 https://reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14nb5qs/today_is_apollo_for_reddits_last_day_and_i_just/

hiyaaaaa23,

@christianselig Apollo is dead, long live Apollo.

Why are u Bisexual and nyot Pansexual?

hiyaaaaa23,

@gameplayer
Im attracted to all genders but like my attraction feels different.

It’s like steak vs pasta

I love steak, and I love pasta, but I love them in different ways

That’s basically the best analogy

It’s like men are hot and women are hot and enbies are hot, but, while I’m attracted to everyone, the way in which I’m attracted to someone changes with gender identity.
