I remember when Twitter first went live or whatever and I was like "who the fuck would use this? Who is this for?"

It was for pretentious celebrities and other narcissists to share their twee little musings with the world (the character count was originally there for that novelty) and build up parasocial bonds with them by continuing to send out those twee little musings.

my-hero removed those limitations so he could make it a bullhorn to signal boost his very divorced and very mid-life crisis noises for everyone in reach to receive.
