@MLBguardians @HelpFriendBot yep, unfortunately it used an api elontwitter discontinued. it was running off-label for months but I don't think there's a way for it to work in the new system. the mastodon port mostly works! still fixing it up

@MrChrisP yeah, the issue is that there is a song called Timber and expects the regular one to be called "Timber (Jerry the Mule)" which is not how @Phish_FTR tweet it. Probably worth hardcoding that one though

@AriDubLion not AI, I wrote the bot, it does not aim to replace dot net (and in fact, as clearly stated, pulls all its data from there) there's a bug where sometimes .net updates faster than _ftr and so when the bot asks for the current gap it reports 0 shows. patches welcome

@stellaphone @thatcrypticguy @ckstern @efrex renamed that old tab and it ran fine. API availability still a hanukkah miracle for now. I suspect repeats are probably not worth writing more code for, right?

Does anyone think global warming is a good thing? I love Lady Gaga. I think she's a really interesting artist.

ok so they mixed up the images. but it's still NOT FUNNY that this police officer ordered a cold refreshing sparkling water and it was served to him with a napkin in it
