Twitter @Jack Got Hacked! What this means for the Amazon Rain Forest and the Stability of the Universe

Apparently Twitter Jack himself was hacked. Someone gained access to his account and was trolling for about 10 minutes until Twitter management managed to get the account back.
That's the story, that he was hacked, but maybe he was not?
Bloggers are still working on how to write 1000+ words articles about it but there really isn't much more info other than Twitter @Jack got hacked and someone did get screen shots.
I would maybe go like: Twitter Jack is Back in Action, attacking the hackers with vacuum cleaner attachments.
And maybe something about gaining traction and blockchain transactions. And another 500 words to say the whole paragraph over again.
I had to crop out some Tweets. The most popular ones was a racial slur, and a bomb threat about Twitter HQ, but it had some meme-millennial hashtags and I wouldn't take it too seriously.
My guess is someone brute-forced the account. There are geeks who sit around with spreadsheets and try to match people's pet names with their last girlfriend to get a password match, and other try-hard things like that.

Someone sent you some POCKET tokens. POCKET is an experimental sub-token system which operates on the Steem blockchain. It's like having a custom token without SMT. You can also send some to someone else by just commenting on a post with the following command: pocketsend:number_of_token@recipient_name,memo for example to send 10 tokens to @pocketjs, make a comment starting with: pocketsend:10@pocketjs,This is a gift

I am running Pocket-JS confirmer code.
