So CogDog informed me that auto-embedding has been a feature of WordPress for a while. I just accidentally discovered this while doing my last post. I guess there’s no excuse for not embedding now.
Soundcloud offers two different embed codes, so you have some control over the appearance. I can use the code to get this:

With Twitter, a plain text link looks like this:
Linking & embedding & #noir106: http://t.co/szWQ8DuBLX #ds106

and using the embed code does this:
Linking & embedding & #noir106: http://t.co/szWQ8DuBLX #ds106
— paul bond (@phb256) January 16, 2015
which looks the same on preview, although not in the editor. So never mind me. Embed away!
