Hey everyone, it's Early Access Day, and today we're bringin' back a classic! I don't remember the last time I did an official, "main channel" Tweeting Rainbow (I've done one or two for Patreon) but I wanted to give you a little present for the Memorial Day weekend (do people normally give presents on Memorial Day?). Enjoy!
Twitter (sorry, "Eeeex") has had some major difficulties securing good advertisers for its site ever since you-know-who bought it, despite putting one of media's most celebrated ad-saleswomen in charge. Buckley brings back Tweeting Rainbow to showcase what Linda Yaccarino considers "quality advertisers". If you can't get Coca-Cola or car companies... how about dropshippers, scammers, OnlyFans girls, and unhinged lunatics paying to be seen?!
