Just a little more than a week ago, Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor, the most entertaining celebrity Twitterer this side of Shaq, announced that he was done with Twitter and with every other social networking site because of the rampant assholism on the internet: "I will be tuning out of the social networking sites because at the end of the day it's now doing more harm than good in the bigger picture and the experiment seems to have yielded a result. Idiots rule."

Well, call it a victory over haterism because Reznor is back up in this motherfucker! And by "this motherfucker", I mean "Twitter".

@trent_reznor shuddered back to life earlier today with this characteristic bit of wit: "Just visited my 1st Euro festival toilet. This shit is on!" He followed it up immediately afterward with this explanation. "And fuck you, trolls. I'll tweet if I feel like it ... @Mariqueen [his fiancee] and I are an unstoppable force of greatness - so SUCK IT." That's the spirit!

Now, if only Trent would apply that same can't-stay-away mentality to his decision to put Nine Inch Nails on hiatus...

In, uh, sort of related news, Reznor recently spoke with Newsweek and had some nice things to say about a couple of Pitchfork darlings (via The Daily Swarm): "I saw Sufjan Stevens last year, and I was like, how is his singing that good? The band Grizzly Bear, I think they're excellent. There's a beauty and a musicality there that I wish would have been in vogue in the late '80s, when I was forming bands. The aesthetic I was tuned into was a more dumbed-down kind of thing. Sometimes listening to stuff like they're doing makes me feel irrelevant. That's a nice, healthy kick in the ass. And it's interesting to see there's room for that in what's considered hip these days."
So when can we expect that twee chamber-pop record, Trent?
