There was a really popular one from back then that I don't recall the details of that involved him sitting in his bathtub refusing to come into work.
Maybe he was always this way, but it's just such a bizarre career pivot.
I think the whole schedule and having to be on TV and work with other people and stuff gave him a routine that he doesn't have now so he can just shit on Twitter all day going insane.
You can still sometimes see his old humor when he banters with conservative accounts instead of just being angry all the time and unlike most progressive accounts he tends to take jokes about himself pretty well. And he was aware enough to make a different account for just his dog posting since people kept complaining about his insane posts when they followed him for the dog stuff.
