When Twitter became a cesspool in 2023, I wrote a little script to pull down my old data. I repurposed it here, again with a program, so if you read something from a random old year, you might just be the first person ever to read it. In other words, there's no editing going on here. You can see that in 2023, I jumped from Twitter to Mastodon to post thoughts on my home page, so there's a little icon to tell you where the source was.
