    Brewster's Millions aside, what if he's tanking Twitter on purpose?

    Also.

    I see people scrambling to download / upload / offload / archive years worth of their Tweets and I think to myself, why in the world would you bother?

    Why would I transcribe everything I've ever said at a cocktail party?

    Microblog!

    I have no idea why anyone still follows me on Twitter. It was last useful in a business sense in 2015 when I still worked at the paper. I basically use it to bitch about my sports teams and for hot takes like: "Sonny Milano is my favorite Capitals player named after a Pepperidge Farm cookie." Enthralling stuff.

    One of the few things that is less interesting than stories about Twitter is stories about what someone has said on Twitter.

    If Fullcast After Dark wasn’t live on Saturday nights I’d have no real reason to log on.

    Twitter closes and Grindr goes public on the same day! What a time to be alive.

    Interesting thread with some good points made by both sides as you read.
