Twitter is all but dead so I feel I can use this account to complain that @Delta wants me to scan a QR code on my seatback screen code to see an in-flight menu?? I have a dumbphone and no QR code scanner and now I'm cranky and considering Air France for all future flights.

The movie is coming out soon, so here's a look back at a piece I wrote on the novel version a couple years ago.
Two years ago, @anaklimchy wrote an article about the potential of Edward Ashton’s novel Mickey7, and what we hope the movie adaptation will bring: https://t.co/f3f8g9QX5l

Is it too soon to do this yet? Advance copies have arrived! @anaklimchy and I are so grateful for both the volume's contributors and the folks at @BloomsburyAcad. @taylorswift13, we'd love for you to check it out! Is it cool that I said all that?

One day, I will put my literary degree to its greatest possible use and write a literary analysis of @JokerOutBand 's Metulji and Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" (did you know they're both written in the same key?)

the Victorians helped invent multiple genres such as detective fiction, science fiction, the urban novel, and urban Gothic, so I don't now how unquestioningly they established those literary conventions
I love modernism but sometimes I envy my Victorianist colleagues. It must be so liberating to work on writers who possessed a stable world view and unquestioningly accepted the established literary conventions of their day
