Sometimes Twitter seems to block images from being rendered elsewhere ... not often but seemingly sometimes. I see that Gateway Pundit nearly always does the same and sometimes Reddit does too. And, when tweets or posts elsewhere are deleted, they go away.

When I have time I will post the image to an image hosting site (simply use the same URL and the browser will first suck the image down to your device and then submit it to the hosting site) - then I use that URL. Also when I have time and there is good accompanying text, I also include an “alt” tag with the associated text - so for a trump tweet in graphic form (sometimes the best means of presentation such as when including an image itself) - I’ll post the image and then add, “alt=’TRUMP TWEET: XYZ’” - the “alt” tag contents will display if the image ever disappears and is also used by search engines for context.

NOW ... will today be a record setting “Q” post day?

Thanks. I got my Twitter back up. Searched Donald Trump. Got him but also got suggestion of Obama, the beast, CNN and Sanders. Freaking really?

Bring it! (po’ bagster)

Let the FR/index quiver!

Subjective experience:

cdn.qmap.pub/images .jpg from qmap are hit/miss whether I post them here or someone else does. May show up at first, then I come along later and they’re gone.

Maybe since it’s a cdn, my area of the country the culprit.

Therefore I third party host them and that appears to be solid.


Change subject and FYI: outside of FR on unrelated site got this

Way beyond my kindergarten paygrade but I’m sure others will be able to do it.
