Hey folks, it's @dghubble. I've run this comic robot for about 10 years (but I'm NOT the author).
The future looks grim for Twitter, and I’m planning to turn off this feed 🧵
@xkcdComic@dghubble It's been an honour to tweet here for the past 4 years. This little bot has gotten me farther than I could've imagined, and it was your own work that inspired me to create it. Thanks @dghubble, and to adventures ahead.
