It’s David Lynch’s birthday.
Love his movies but was a big fan of his smash hit sitcom Friends.

the perennial "is this a good replacement for twitter / can it become as big as twitter" discussion is so confused. hominids became bipedal about 7 million years ago. for most of the time since we did not have microblogging. it's not a necessity it's a habit, if it all goes away that's fine
