ed c3a9978d03 docs(twitter): add 27 new NOTimothyLottes threads (Jul 2026 Linux dev bringup)
Processed 38 URLs from the user's list. 1 was already in the corpus
(2072194202851549432). 9 were duplicates within the new batch (same
post IDs at different anchor URLs); removed those. This commit
contains the 27 unique new threads.

Cleanup: removed 9 duplicate dirs (same posts at different anchor URLs),
script temp files, and the '1857803914604618029' which was already a
duplicate of '1857820858162753661' (mmap log canonical).
