We have lots of readers with a wide variety of interests. Lots of folks love the TV show "Pretty Little Liars," for instance. I’ve never been a fan, but I’m not going to fault someone for, say, running a fan account. To each her own. https://twitter.com/nyttypos/status/1269999337322557440 …
i'm also fascinated that that guy puts two spaces after a period in all his tweets.
he's a lawyer. lawyers use two spaces after a period. it's awful.
it's ALMOST AS IF he realizes that different needs call for different style guides.
Whenever I see two spaces after a period I read it as though it’s a telegram. “Really, no one with a Times subscription cares STOP I don’t care what your analytics say STOP”

... and now I can't unsee it. Thanks Erin. Also, while I do appreciate what he does that dude is ultimately a fanboy of the NY Times. And that makes me smile daily and nightly.
I actually haven't read the Times for purposes of reading the news since I was five. I actually don't even pay for a subscription and wouldn't if I didn't have a free one.
I would say he lost me the time he complained about a style thing and when I replied with the stylebook entry showing it was done correctly his reply amounted to "that's interesting, I disagree." But really he lost me the second I read his bio.
It's because that's what lawyers do at pains of being run out of the profession, and rather than go through life being bipolar, sometimes writing one way and sometimes another, all my emails, texts (drunk or sober), tweets, etc. are two-spaced.
