Twitter is a tool I use to think with, and as such my tweets are high volume and chaotic. I choose to not alter how I tweet based on who follows me. I have lost a lot of really good followers because of this.

If you find me too much, or some of the topics in my feed unpalatable, I'm sorry.Highly recommend throwing me in a twitter list and using search instead of drinking straight from the firehose."list:[username]/[listname] topic" in search will limit it to people on the list.

This works on other people's lists too! Its a really powerful feature that can help you learn quickly on a topic here.E.g. you can learn about how to solve the problem via searching my sun twitter list: https://t.co/11RhH00vtp

I also love talking about my ideas. Answering questions helps me frame my thinking in a way that I can't do when I'm just talking to my self, so feel free to DM me on a topic if you don't feel like replying to a tweet.

Just so we're clear, I am willing to sell my account for 50% more than the market cap of dogecoin at the time of exchange. And I will only accept dogecoin.

For the astute observer, that price is literally a paradox. You can not give me more value in dogecoin than the market cap of dogecoin. If you could, that would mean a the moment of exchange you had more dogecoin to give me than was in existence. Or you're a time-traveler.
