A daily dose of Bach

Cantata BWV 89 - Was soll ich aus dir machen, Ephraim - 5.Aria

it’s my birthday AND pride month so naturally here’s a collection of some of my favorite Gay Opera Kisses

So like I understand the need to free up usernames that were taken and then never used again, but what about accounts of people who died ?

Its unclear if the criteria for an inactive account’s deletion is both “No log in for years AND zero tweets made by the account as a whole,aka empty accounts”

It could very well be “No login for years and zero tweets made during this inactivity”

Which would sucks cuz theres a lot of cool stuff made from accounts who are inactive, and again, all that some families have left from their deceased loved ones is an inactive twitter account.

Back in 2019,this concern was brought up, and Twitter said they wouldnt delete accounts to free up names without making it possible to memorialize accounts of a deceased person first.

Now, Under Elon, i dont know if it will be made.

So if you know an inactive account you really loved.. make sure to save its tweets into the wayback machine, take screenshots, etc.

Just in case.

Also they dont even specify how many years. We’re left in total darkness regarding questions we have.

Author: Sharon Bowers

Synopsis: Seven years after the events of “The Silence of the Lambs,” Clarice Starling partners up with Dana Scully on the trail of a serial killer.

Rating: M

Word Count: 67,804

Fandom: X-Files/Silence of the Lambs (film)

Pairing: Scully/Starling

Why You Should Read It: It’s kind of funny seeing Starling and Scully paired together because Scully was strongly based on Starling to begin with. Yet Bowers makes them two individual and incredible women and both haunted by the most important men in their lives and the vast secrets they carry.

Scully here, largely absent Mulder, is a little more carefree and easy going. Yes she’s got a reputation but her time with Mulder has taught her not to care and having a supportive partner like him has proven to be just the sort of support system she needs. Meanwhile Clarice is a savagely intelligent woman dragged down by the demons of her past, Hannibal Lecter and her closeted lesbianism.

The absolute best part of this is how it’s a character study wrapped up in a murder mystery. These two incredibly investigators are forced together and often find their partners more fascinating than the murderer they hunt.
