Great, now the timeline is going to be full of "just tweeted X to my super follows, super follow me here: ...". Sounds like more ads. I guess in fairness you probably don't want to follow people who tweet like this but these

What about mentally ill people? People on medication that make them groggy? People who are drunk in their own home? People who are exhausted from a huge week at work? Children? Elderly? People cannot reasonably be expected to “stay calm” at
