  1. A quotation from La Rochefoucauld

    The extreme pleasure we take in talking about ourselves should make us afraid that we are not giving the same pleasure to those who listen to us.
     
    [L’extrême plaisir que nous prenons à parler de nous-mêmes nous doit faire craindre de n’en donner guère à ceux qui nous écoutent.]

    François VI, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680) French epigrammatist, memoirist, noble
    Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales [Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims], ¶314 (1665-1678) [tr. Chandler]

  9. @libei I know you’re working on implementing base features but I have a request for your backlog. Can you add a “post in thread” feature? Something that lets you specify “This toot is the beginning of a thread”. After it’s published another toot is automatically started that is a reply to that first toot. #Mastoot #FeatureRequest #HaveALotToSay #TalkTooMuch
