I get pretty grumpy when people with an enormous following trash-talk Twitter.
I'd be a nobody without Twitter. I take it seriously and have made genuine, heartfelt connections with people on this platform. It's not a show to me at all. It's real.

Foundation makes me very sad. I had hope in ep 1 it was going to be an interesting reimagining, but it’s slow-moving, un-Asimovly violent, and very confusing. I don’t know what its major themes are.
Giving shows too many episodes is the worst thing about peak tv.

I still don’t like that Miami has a head coach who is still learning how to be in charge. Could easily be 6-2 right now with better coaching, and on track to win the Coastal. Instead, here they sit at 4-4.

Canes offense was on fire today. TVD looks like the best QB we’ve had in a long time. Receivers were on point. Rooster stepped up big. TEs with two TDs. Awesome!
Defense was rough at times. Giving up 500+ passing yards ain’t great. But, hey, two wins over ranked teams in a row!
