Jesse,

If I may ask (and I promise I'm not trying to make this personal, I
really am just curious), what is the value of following 14,000 people?
 Surely you know anyone of them could send you a DM at any time?  How
do you keep up with them all?

Basically, what is your reason for following a large number of people?
(I have heard answers from other people following large volumes, but I
am curious about your use-case).
