This week I purged my twitter account. I stopped following about 150 people. Most of them were political accounts. I tried to make sure I followed people from different political perspectives. Well I unfollowed them all. Well almost all of them. This includes people I generally “agree” with most of the time.
It is emotionally draining and probably not good for my mental health. Earlier this week I asked a couple fellow Corn Nation staffers if they think writing about Nebraska sports requires us to be on twitter.
Admittedly I receive most of my Husker sports news from twitter.
