My first tweet simply explained my thoughts at the time and two whole people liked it. The next day I fully committed to my efforts and to great affect. One comment and 7 whole likes! After the adrenaline rush of the tweet before, I went big the next day with a GIF. But only three likes? WTF? The next few days were nothing special, just general tweets with little to no interaction. But then I used 'hashtags'. It got me 6 whole likes! I felt the pressure of the success of the previous tweet so needed time to prepare. 5 people liked this tweet which just added even more pressure. I was panicking. There was a lot of political things going on in the world so I went political with my tweet. Clearly my fans are the wrong audience for politics. only one like. I was on a real low. But things changed. I wrote a tweet dedicated to my followers and the liked hit the double digits! And TWO comments. that's twice as many as I'd ever had ever before. I needed something new to keep the interaction levels high. 6 votes, but only one like. I was getting desperate for likes. I was trying to be current and relevant. This was on the day there was a big sporting event. This was right before it all went wrong. On the 20th of December 2019, I forgot to tweet. It was only one day that I didn't tweet but I know that isn't an excuse. I received the most comments ever but it wasn't pretty. Why does my lowest twitter moment have to be my most successful in terms of interaction? Does my bad actions make other people feel better about themselves? Perhaps seeing someone (me) fail makes them feel superior and therefore more inclined to interact with me? Or do they just feel sorry for me? Who knows. I opened up to my followers and let them all know that I was getting married in the new year. A very personal tweet and it seemed to get a good reaction. On New Years day I go sentimental. 5 likes is pretty good. This was a big day. My biggest tweet reaction so far - and I think I have cracked it. I tweeted about other people and they loved it. double digits in the likes and a photo. The photo isn't even of me. I think the people of twitter only want to be praised or thanked. So maybe I should just tweet about other people instead of myself - but then what is the point?
End of thread (so far)
