18000 tons of bombs is not the same as 18kt of TNT. The most often used MK82 weighs roughly 227kg (500 pounds) and contains only 89kg of TNT explosives. The other weight is casing and fuse. http://characterisationexplosiveweapons.org/studies/annex-e-mk82-aircraft-bombs/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1719674591478485027

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
