I spend a lot of time on Twitter! And often I say silly and/or substantial things there, that I then post here for posterity, Twitter being quite intentionally an evanescent medium. Here are some of my favorite long-form Twitter postings of the year, arranged more or less chronologically.

- In Which Mary Robinette Kowal Reads My Sexy, Sexy Tweets (featuring Mary Robinette Kowal)
- My Funny Internet Life, Part 9,744

- Neil and the Bear: Perhaps Not a Children’s Book After All (featuring Hayley Campbell and Neil Gaiman)
- The Upgrade from Hell
- GamerGate Adds to Its Vast Warehouse of Stupid
- Last Night’s Twitter Rant Involving 20somethings and Finance

Also, this exchange with Lavie Tidhar was fun.
And this exchange between me and my daughter leaves no doubt as to whose child she is.
And that’s Scalzi Twitter for 2015!
I do enjoy following you on Twitter. And you have some great followers.
I am not on Twitter, so I appreciate these recaps. My favorite was the awkward Star Wars holiday nonsense.
The Windows 10 upgrade tweets were epic.
I is awed by your Twitter skills.

Note to my fellow Scalzi animals. When our Athena human attempts to cook please vacate the house until either its continued existence is assured or the ashes have cooled. Do NOT be tempted back by any appetizing aromas before then. And yes, I know this is more than 140 characters long, but we felines have the power.
Apparently roast pork was invented when a chinese farmhouse burned down. It was some years before it was discovered that it wasn’t necessary to burn down the whole farmhouse to produce a meal.

I love it when you and Cherq get into it.
