It's been a weird week to be on Twitter. The whole thing is kind of falling apart under Elon Musk's management.

But, for the time being, Twitter remains up and running. And this week, it was a hub for the Swifties who were really going through a rough time. To recap: Ticketmaster made it nearly impossible to get tickets for Taylor Swift's upcoming Eras tour. Digital queues were impossibly long, the Ticketmaster site often crashed, and lots of people were left very disappointed. If you didn't get a pre-sale code or you weren't a Capital One cardholder, you literally didn't even get a chance to buy a ticket. Making matters even worse, the general public sale of the tickets was canceled on Thursday.
