Description

Here is a typical log:
https://gist.github.com/bshambaugh/c85663417a3b494e7770e0541de14bb0
I was over on solid chat on gitter and @timbl said it was an error and suggested reloading the page. I tried this and I tried mozilla firefox (even restarted) before trying the brave browser (the second because I did not chose to clear my browser cache).

I created an account with https://solidcommunity.net/. I created two accounts bshambaugh and bshambaugh2 (with separate e-mails) to rule out any errors that might have propogated that might have been created to link to one of my webids: http://bshambaugh.org/foaf.rdf#me that did not work presumably because it is not https.
