Each day on twitter there is one main character. The goal is to never be it maple cocaine (@maplecocaine) January 3, 2019
Every day somebody says or does something that earns them the scorn of the internet. Here at Digg, as part of our mission to curate what the internet is talking about right now, we rounded up the main characters on Twitter from this past week and held them accountable for their actions.
This week s characters include a political science PhD candidate who doesn t get Mark Rothko, a United States senator who thinks Joe Biden needs to rage-tweet more, an author who will not accept your four-star review on Goodreads, a governor with the meanest tweet about asylum seekers and a TikTok stunt gone wrong.

Last year, former classmates of rising Republican star Madison Cawthorn shared that during his brief time at Patrick Henry College in the fall of 2016, Cawthorn was widely viewed as a serial sexual predator. In an open letter, they wrote that Cawthorn “established a reputation for predatory behavior,” notably inviting women on what the group of former students described as “joy rides” during which he would subject women to “unwanted sexual advances.”

As one former student, Philip Bunn, told Jezebel at the time, a whisper network had quickly sprung up on campus to warn women about Cawthorn. “Girls were warning other girls not to go on rides with him,” Bunn recalled. Another former classmate, Kara Brown, told Jezebel that Cawthorn would harass students whom he pursued. “He would just follow them around and continually ask them out over and over again, and just wouldn’t take no for an answer,” Brown said.

CRICKET
Lamenting the death of the gentlemanâs game
I played cricket for more than 30 years. I saw all of the 1946/47 Boxing Day Test, saw Bradman make 100 and watched all the greats that became the ââInvinciblesââ in England in 1948. What heroes for any boy to try to emulate. There was a saying in those days when referring to unsportsmanlike or untoward behaviour as âânot being cricketââ. It was as if the game of cricket was indeed a moral code.
