Hi Taylor, It looks like you're using a Twitter API widget on oscars.org -- the Twitter API is rate limited by IP address -- if you're on a network with a lot of other people (in an office building with a shared external IP address, for example), often the amount of API calls that can be made to Twitter are exhausted by all the shared traffic. When I look at oscars.org, the visibility of the feed is dependent on the IP address I'm accessing from.
One way to mitigate this perspectival issue: - Instead of using a pre-packaged Twitter widget, implement the logic yourself, server-side. You can then control how frequently the feed is fetched, allowing you to cache results and insure that a fetch is not required for each page load of your site. It's likely that the average visitor to your site will not see this issue express itself.
