In the last 24 hours, I posted the following to Twitter:

Wednesday, 0651: Dreamed that Seanan had written a very dry literary novel in support of a political campaign.
Wednesday, 0703: RT @simonejester: Fuck Yeah Mobility Aids! - I just started it. The first post was the last straw. There are too many cool... http://tum ...
Wednesday, 0832: Nice dream with handholding became washing a hen, then weird hospital chase.
Wednesday, 0834: There were radiation sensors on keycards, and both you and your card were scanned.
Wednesday, 0835: The scanning involved more radiation & if the card was rejected you were held in active scanning zone.

Wednesday, 0851: http://fuckyeahfanficflamingo.tumblr.com/post/3985684159 Serial numbers. Hee.
Wednesday, 0856: Dear @wsj, please listen to @maureenjohnson. When your fluff pieces make pros in the field rant, this is not actually good. #YAlit
Wednesday, 0859: @maureenjohnson Now that's what I call balls-to-the-wall reporting. As a reader who neither likes nor watches sports, I was educated!
Wednesday, 1045: @laliandra WOOHOO!
Wednesday, 1058: RT @mala: best case scenario: Rebecca Black makes an *awesome* version of the song for Sesame Street
Wednesday, 1342: @semanticist You would. I might, I might not.
Wednesday, 1345: @maureenjohnson Today has been mostly naked, please send blankets.
Wednesday, 1507: @GeorgeTakei It would be nice if we, as LGBTQ* people, could go even one day without having *our* inequality shoved down our throats...
Wednesday, 1512: Dear character in Vonnegut's Jailbird: you are a misogynist creep if your respect for women can be destroyed by that joke.
Wednesday, 1534: @khasael Yaaaaaay!
Wednesday, 1544: Things that have made me weep with a teenage feeling of outrage and betrayal today: http://n.pr/heKKru [space]
Wednesday, 1545: @semanticist There's a "must be polite" ground into some people, particularly women.
Wednesday, 1547: @jai_dit @teshiron Complete agreement. Who's where on the phone tree?
Wednesday, 1631: @jai_dit Now is the time to plan, then. Whoever's heading the phone tree calls ALL THE RELATIVES & alerts key locals.
Wednesday, 1632: @jai_dit & I'm similarly likely to drop anything I can drop & teleport to the courthouse with implements of good cheer.
Wednesday, 1632: @loopylisa93 I haven't played it yet either. I need to as well. I may never go up there myself, but --
Wednesday, 1635: @dalesvariation That's the one. WOMEN HAVE DIGESTIVE SYSTEMS. If this knowledge is too much for poor #Jailbird...
Wednesday, 1645: @dalesvariation Apparently that guy equated respect with all sorts of ... interesting ... things. Fear. Black-box mystery.
Wednesday, 1905: At the #octribe meetup, have finally met @musingvirtual in person after knowing her online for years, glad to be out of the rain.
Wednesday, 1917: So @jeskaD mentioned the people who wanted no change. Signed "LJ" to @musingvirtual. Giggles from our corner. #octribe
Wednesday, 1920: Ah yes, the things that don't scale. Helps to set expectations for your community about regular review of policies. #octribe
Wednesday, 1924: Figure out when you're wrong, admit it. (How do you decide when you're wrong? What if the committee disagrees?) #octribe
Wednesday, 1928: @musingvirtual @JeskaD There is a photo of me from about age 16 holding three hens very precariously. Practice for adulthood! #octribe
Wednesday, 1933: Leveling up the community manager neophytes is an excellent practice. Pin their strengths down. #octribe
Wednesday, 1936: Proactively search out power users to ask them how planned changes would affect their use of the service. #octribe
Wednesday, 1937: #Dreamwidth has design personas to help designers see impact; they were formed after lots of looking at user groups. #octribe
Wednesday, 1948: You can politely ask why someone's left; don't try to pull them back too hard or it's cultish. #octribe
Wednesday, 1948: What @JeskaD said is very good: put knowledge in a wiki or other group-control structure so one person doesn't have it locked up. #octribe
Wednesday, 1949: @whump hiiiii
Wednesday, 1951: Found that an off-topic IRC channel broke down social barriers; I can't do 2nd Life but IRC is great fun, realtime & backscroll. #octribe
Wednesday, 1955: Sorting trolls from passionate angry users: figure out what their problem is! #octribe
Wednesday, 1956: Watch for users who stir up other users; they can either be trolls or really strong advocates of their viewpoints. #octribe
Wednesday, 1956: People who are less emotionally engaged but still stirring up others: entirely possibly trolls. "Oh." #octribe
Wednesday, 2003: Modeling good behavior: excellent plan. #octribe
Wednesday, 2005: Woo ravelry! #octribe How does it work as a community?
Wednesday, 2009: When you make a change that one community is going to hate, but is necessary, throw that community a feature or two. #octribe
Wednesday, 2011: Yes, encouraging identities that people have investment in is a good thing; I look at longevity & involvement of users all the time #octribe
Wednesday, 2013: @khasael WE ARE CULTFISH
Wednesday, 2251: Oh dang. :( http://www.wickedgrounds.com/WG/Blog/Entries/2011/3/23_Important_Announcement.html
Wednesday, 2302: @catchfoot With the right kind of solid local community manager support group, you'll only have to do the wine run 1 week/mo! #octribe
Wednesday, 2311: @khasael Though once upon a time I did go through the Advanced Bonewits Cult Danger Evaluation Framework w/chat. #cultfish
Wednesday, 2311: @khasael Result: not very culty. #cultfish
Wednesday, 2314: @whump Very articulate peanut gallery.
Wednesday, 2330: The new gay stereotype: http://gocomics.typepad.com/tomthedancingbugblog/2010/05/still-waiting-for-the-prediction-in-this-comic-to-come-true.html
Wednesday, 2333: RT @JulianaMarie: Via tumblr: "The best things in life aren’t free. The best things in life vibrate."
Wednesday, 2334: @shirozora Only when the pr0n comes natural-like. If it doesn't? HEAD ALL THE WAY.
Wednesday, 2336: @ilauredhel I seriously think so.
Wednesday, 2348: Alaska is a small state. I don't know this guy but I probably know someone who does. http://mediamatters.org/blog/201103230032
Thursday, 0015: @JeskaD You're welcome! It was a pleasure. Thanks @techsoup for hosting!
