Wow this is disruptive given it's less than 1 week's notice.

I've been using a Jekyll plugin for like 4 years to embed tweets on my site. Nothing crazy, just using: https://github.com/rob-murray/jekyll-twitter-plugin

But in this case it does seem like copy/pasting the text may be better as it implicitly archives the content.
