Fun fact: Adam Rippon is good at figure skating.
Another fun fact: Adam Rippon is also good at tweeting. Like, VERY good at it. Like, make-Twitter-an-Olympic-sport-then-give-Adam-a-gold-medal levels of good at tweeting.
Since he arrived at Pyeongchang, Rippon — a.k.a America's sweetheart — has been tweeting up a storm.
And while other people have been sending out Bad Tweets about the Olympics (*cough* Bari Weiss *cough*), Rippon has been tweeting dispatches from his Olympic journey, as well as sending out support to some of his fellow competitors, with a flair and a panache that has been, quite frankly addicting.
His tweets shine brighter than his bedazzled skating outfits. And if you're not following him on Twitter you're missing it all.
But fear not. Here are some of Adam Rippon's best tweets:
That time he subtweeted Donald Trump Jr. to hell and back:

Adam does NOT have time for feuding, Donald Trump, Jr.
That time he was the literal embodiment of self-confidence:
To all those who tweet at me saying that they “hope I fail”, I have failed many times many times in my life. But more importantly, I’ve learned from every setback, proudly own up to my mistakes, grown from disappointments, and now I’m a glamazon bitch ready for the runway.

"A glamazon bitch ready for the runway"? I live. I LIVE!
That time he met one of his fellow competitors, and read him for filth:

And don't worry. It looks like Emery took it in his stride:
I don't know how I feel about this, I'll have to mullet over

That time that he gave us the daily affirmation we all need sometimes:
FUN FACT: Being true to who you are and not giving a shit about what others think about you is an awesome and liberating thing whether you are gay or not - Sometimes we the gays need to be reminded more often but, LIKE, EVERYONE SHOULD TRY IT, FOR REAL. JUST DO IT.

That time Adam shipped himself and Olympic bae Gus Kenworthy as much as the rest of us shipped Adam and Olympic bae Gus Kenworthy:
I WILL SHIP AT ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, UNTIL THE END OF MY DAYS!

That time Adam, once again, gave thanks to his haters:
The REAL one for I did for TV says “my mom” but, like, I needed this one for myself because it was the first thing that actually popped in my head and I thought I was so funny. pic.twitter.com/aC5X7wQ7bY

That time he preached the good Lord's truth about that oiled up flag bearer from Tonga:
Guess who's back. Back again. The Tonga flag bearer is back. TELL LITERALLY EVERYONE.
And it's not just the Olympics. Adam has been delivering us fire tweets since before the Winter Games started.
Like that time he taught us what it takes to snap gorgeous photos:
This is a shot from my shoot with @GQMagazine - I’m sitting in a Kohl’s parking lot bush. With the lights from the Taco Bell next door twinkling in my eye, Ryan Pfluger has never made me feel more beautiful. pic.twitter.com/fO2568HJJJ
— Adam Rippon (@Adaripp) February 10, 2018
Turns out the secret is Taco Bell.
And that time he invented tank tops:
Wow, still can’t believe that I invented the tank top. pic.twitter.com/9BJdigMiYZ

Your fave could never.
That time Adam found his one true love:
Me with the love of my life (myself) pic.twitter.com/jonnFldaxA
— Adam Rippon (@Adaripp) November 17, 2017
Because, in the immortal words of RuPual, if you can't love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else.
And who can forget that time Adam found his "me" time:
A little “me” time sounds nice pic.twitter.com/DxtsMxUfJy
