In honor of Andor's upcoming finale, and due to the impending finale of Twitter, I would post some Classic Contentā¢ to honor both.
SO here are Andor Characters as Dril Tweets, a thread š§µ
First up, the man himself, Cassian Andor:

I've got some more lined up and will post intermittently, but feel free to chime in with your own because I might need to attend to my Actual Child.
Now, from the footsoldiers of Empire to its leadership, let's go live to an ISB meeting where Deedra Meero has some interesting thoughts.
Hey everybody, more Dril/Andor content on the way but I just wanted to say 2 things. 1) The laughter that some of you have found in this is great. I've gone through some rough times lately, and it's neat to know you are laughing at my jokes.
2) (spins chair around, sits) So while we've been laughing at Andor, you know what's the real Evil Empire? Hegemonic, unfeeling capitalism, supported by violent states. I urge you, whoever you are, to find people in your communities who feel this way and ORGANIZE.
Organize into a union, organize into a mutual aid group, organize into an issue group about fighting discrimination, or building affordable housing, or protecting our environment. Just take some time, and reach out and make that connection. You will thank yourself.
If you are in the US and feel this way, I *heartily* recommend joining DSA. There's likely a chapter right near you, and most likely (not always) they're full of people just like you, trying to find ways to fight and help.

And now back to our show. We're on Aldahni now, and the heist is on. Let's meet the crew. First off, our leader, Vel Sartha
But we're not going to get what we need by asking nicely. We need some more muscle. Luckily we have Avrel Skeen.
The plan? We hold Commandant Jayhold Beehaz at gunpoint in front of his wife and child. Look. Don't freak out on us now. Dude has it coming.
OK, that's my break. More to come over the next few days, if people keep liking this.
Alright, Mods (my infant daughter) are asleep. Time to post AnDril...
So, I'm going to repost some (sometimes lightly re-edited versions of) replies here, because many hands makes light work, and OK, before I start doing politics here's @SandwichJudge 's great take on Perrin Fertha
And while we're here on Coruscant, let's check in with @NotInventedHere 's Davo Skuldun
From the Imperial core to the periphery...It's Tubes! Hey Tubes! (h/t @andrewfinney79 with the *perfect* caption for this).
And clocking in with his fourth(?) appearance in Star Wars Canon, it's Saw Guerrera here to do Saw Guerrera stuff, courtesy of @LloydEaves
Meanwhile, Cassian Andor is learning that jail is, unfortunately, VERY real... (good pull from @TheGr8Aspie)
There he is being supervised by foreman Kino Loy, who is depicted by @NotInventedHere being, "not Good
Ope, now ya done it. Kino Loy's gone sicko mode (good). @PhakeJakeHowell is on scene. Jake? What's got Kino all upset?
Alright, so with the prison arc done and dusted, I'm going to sleep. If you want more of this, I'm doing a praxis check. I want to see links to groups you organize with and tell me what you do w them. If you can't do that, you should consider DSA. act.dsausa.org/donate/membership
