1. Do you have JAVASCRIPT enabled in Safari ?

2. Do you have any ad-blocking software operational ?

3. Try a second browser such as Firefox or Epic.

I tend to think either:

A. Javascript is enabled
B. old Safari incompatibility.

Post results here please.

I shut down the iMac and then cleaned the history in Safari.

Something worked and now the twitter posts are showing back up.
