Since the "For You" tab on Twitter is just going to full of the worst people paying to rent the blue check, I might just have to get back on the 🐦 to do this #ReversePokémon Twitter challenge....LOLLLLL

"The goal is to have a clean “For You” tab. You reach that goal by visiting the For You tab once a day and blocking everyone who shows up. Show off your successes by posting a screenshot of an empty “For You” feed."

@cinebox @alaric They finally figured out how to edit issues, at least on the John’s balls issue. Clearly that one was the priority.
