I've used the doggcatcher app for podcasts for many years, but it's had some random bugs recently, to the point where I finally just googled to see what's going on.
Turns out, the developer just stopped developing it I guess? Around 2 years ago? I just didn't notice?
Genuinely curious what […]

Apparently, before leaving Twitter, I renamed one of my (basically unused) accounts to "Elon Musk farts". Then forgot that I'd done so, and half-forgot that I even had the account. Thus, I ended up with this email.

Hello Elon Musk farts,
Your account, [REDACTED], was reported and has been suspended for violating the X Rules.
