The original tutorial added a flying Twitter bird by loading JavaScript from a Google Code project. That is an old decorative widget, not a sound dependency for a maintained website.
Remove the dependency, not just the animation#
Search your template for the script URL and the tripleflapInit call. Remove both pieces together in a copy of the template, then check the page for script errors and leftover spacing. Do not paste the old remote script into a new site simply to recover the effect.
Google Code is an archived service; its project archive provides historical context. A script loaded from another origin can run with access to the page, so an abandoned decoration carries more responsibility than an ordinary image.
A simpler replacement#
A normal, clearly labeled profile link is enough when the purpose is to help readers find an account. If you still want motion, make it optional, keep it away from article text, and honor the visitor's reduced-motion preference. MDN explains the `prefers-reduced-motion` media query.
For this site, the replacement is ordinary navigation and original local artwork. There is no imported social widget, embedded tracker or automatically flying element.
