@caseynewton For many it's become an addiction. It makes sense when you think about the many years where the platform is used to report/record. Being pulled into the day to day sensational drama (since 2016). It's rewarded paparazzi like behavior.

I do think eventually Twitter will push its limits too far and people will eventually have enough. Though I think the bar for that will manifest itself into something crazier than having press excited to share the shit flung in their f̶e̶c̶e̶s̶ faces.
