Rarely here these days. My microblogging life is now mainly at ᴮˡᵘᵉˢᵏʸ (same handle).
DM or reply with your handle there if we’re mutuals and haven’t found each other there yet.

@ramkid Glad you got back your account.

Harini wants it known that her Twitter account @ calamur is hacked, and she can’t get it back despite it being a paid account. (I had got DMs from her account pushing crypto slop, and alerted her.)
Suspect @ramkid’s account is also compromised; I got the same kind of DMs from it.

@ramkid I am rarely here these days. I got notifications of DMs from known people like you and Harini, so I checked.

@zigzackly @ForbesIndia Meeting Asha ji with @zigzackly to kick off the series on Pursuit of Happiness for ForbesLife was so very apt. She gave so much joy to the people around her. It was an honour, ma’am.

After our interview, we scouted for a location for some more photographs, and we stopped on the highway somewhere between Nashik and Bombay, where Asha-ji gamely agreed to our request to shoot here.

Back in 2011, @d_krish & I had the joy and privilege of interviewing Asha Bhosle for ForbesLife India. The memories are still fresh, and I often quote her. The last time was just a few weeks ago. The article was also reprinted in @ForbesIndia: https://t.co/gnnWVvIrHH

You lived well, ma’am. Thank you for your life and music.

Happy to announce there’s a new word game in town! It’s called WordSutra 🔡🧵and it should be fun to play.

Designed for Indian English-speakers, WordSutra gently tests your lived experience and your interest in pattern spotting and wordplay.😊

@gmail Hi.
In one of my accounts, I often get spam where the sender is myself, but not; that is, spoofing my own address, sometimes perfectly, sometimes without the dot or with random dots, sometimes from a googlemail dot com domain instead of gmail.
How does one deal with that?

@SquaredleApp Also, sorry for the tardy reply. I rarely resort to this site these days.

[Peter Griffin isn’t spending much time here @zigzackly]

@SquaredleApp hi!
Sorry to be a bother.
Are your servers still struggling? I haven’t been able to get new games after 1 November’s.

[Peter Griffin isn’t spending much time here @zigzackly]

@SquaredleApp I am being Buddhist about this. No attachments to worldy things. (A lesson learned when my computer got fried last year. Lost my quite long Squardle streak, but also much more.

Once more, thank you for Squardle.

[Peter Griffin isn’t spending much time here @zigzackly]

@SquaredleApp Thank you, back to normal. But I never got the 2nd Nov puzzles,nand lost my streak. Never mind, I enjoy Squaredle, so thank you.
