Ya know, it would be pretty weird if I went around referring to my father by our surname. I wonder if he has someone writing his tweets for him too, or if he's just that fuckin' weird.

I actually refer to my brother by our last name on specific occasions. His name is Mike, so a lot of his friend groups just call him by our last name because there are too many Mikes. He even gets introduced by our last name so some people don't even know his real name.

He's 9 years older than i am. So those people definitely dont know me, and when we meet up at a bar or to watch a game in public, ive just started talking about him by what they call him because its less confusing for them

That's fair. I have a common name and before transitioning I had an even more common name, which led to me going my my last name even among family.

I still think it's super weird to call your dad by his last name. But then again I also think it's weird and pathetic to simp so hard for your dad as a grown adult. Like, dude you have a family, get some dignity. Your kids won't do the same for you

He does not write his own tweets. They don't quite match his diction when he talks. I would bet it is Jared and Witkof writing them. He is not smart enough to have a work mode or personal mode when he communicates. So there is no way he can change his diction intentionally.
