I'd recently installed the Duck Duck Go extension and that was the culprit. It was blocking embedded Tweets from displaying on GRB. I told Duck Duck Go not to care about GRB and that did the trick.

I am about tired of Duck Duck Go getting into GRB's business.

This may or may not be your issue with viewing tweets... but I notice that every so often my browser doesn't want to fully load the tweets. I can see gray space, or text but no image. I have always assumed this was either internet slowness in my house or at the router on our telephone pole. It has always fixed itself a few minutes/hours later.
That's your hamster getting tired.

Appears to be a Chrome issue. Is anyone else having it?

Some of the tweets I've posted in the Vladdy Putin Super Unhappy Invasion thread are still showing up for me. I don't know if the browser caches tweets like it does images though.

Speaking of twitter, at other message boards (NSBB) I can just paste the link without having to manually add twitter tags and it shows up but here I have to tag it and remove the extraneous URL parts to get it to work?

Is linking tweets broken or am I just stupid all of a sudden?

It may be an issue with twitter's domain switch. I don't know if I should be using twitter.com or x.com. Let me know what you're seeing.
