I sincerely doubt she's personally or professionally connected to all 500+ people she follows on Twitter in a significant way. Most celebrities aren't. It's a publicity platform for them, and interacting outside their usual circle boosts their reach.

I don't personally think that 500 people is that many people to follow on Twitter especially for someone who's been on it for 9 years at this point. If she was following a ton of people she didn't really know I'd expect her to have way more than that especially if it was purely for publicity reasons.

But again, who of us really knows

Wat, I follow 63 people and I still miss 90% of tweets. Twitter doesn't show everything in your feed. Even the people I have notifications set up for it doesn't send me the notifications.

Imagine following 500+ people and expecting that you didn't miss that one asshole tweet?

Blah. We're like 3 layers deep in this conversation now so this is tricky.

What I'm saying is not that JKR sees every tweet. The original question was "why did she follow someone who liked that tweet in the first place". Some people were saying that maybe she just followed whoever it was because they were funny and didn't know much else about them. I don't think that's very likely, because I think probably most of the people that JKR follows are people she knows at least to some degree. So - if it's true that liking the tweet was an accident, which is her explanation - that still very likely means that she chooses to follow and interact with other people who are transphobic and go around liking extremely transphobic things, and either is unaware of it or doesn't mind it, especially since this isn't the first time this has happened IIRC. And that's still not intrinsically evidence of anything whatsoever. but its part of the point that OP was originally making to start the thread, and it makes me dubious of JKR and where she's generally coming from with stuff like this, and less inclined to assume it's totally meaningless, and less inclined to cut her slack in the future.
