Thank you for ten years of listening and smiling with me. Most of my accounts are now suspended. This account is ending intentionally so you can still scroll back and see the old tweets.

Goodbye Twitter. It was fun.

Ew, I just noticed Twitter slapped a "verified" checkmark on my @PicardTips account, probably because it has a lot of followers. No, I did not pay for the checkmark. I did not request it. I was not notified about it.

Picard Tips is now posting on 🔵 sky as well.

@XirVicin There was and I'm thinking of reviving it on other platforms.

@Srood000 I tried leaving my bot accounts running while they got suspended in batches, until my personal account got suspended as well. Better to stop posting than to let this account get suspended as well.

@xainth I’m unsure if there’s enough material or if the license holders would be interested, but it’s not an impossibility.

[Picard Tips @PicardTips]

@ingrid1dewaal What would you suggest?

[Picard Tips @PicardTips]

@timeimp So this account doesn’t get suspended like the others.

@cmcalgary @JoeSondow Done

[Author's note: my personal account @JoeSondow has just been suspended without explanation.]

[Picard Tips @PicardTips]

@fartfartsfarty Working on it.

@fischerville That account is a right-wing troll who snagged my friend's deleted account username and is searching my name to try to cause trouble. Check their reply history.

Picard management tip: Certain crew members are like walking encyclopedias. Remember to ask for their input.

[Picard Tips @PicardTips]

Picard diplomacy tip: The greatest threat to lasting mutual respect is egocentrism. It may never leave you, but resist it at every turn.

[Joe Sondow @JoeSondow]

Twitter quietly suspended more of my bots. 10 down, 3 to go.

Picard management tip: Don't let a crew member's age blind you to their skill level, in either direction.

[Picard Tips @PicardTips]

Picard management tip: Fight for what you know is right. Only arrogant bullies think resistance is futile.
