Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : invalid 'description' argument

Hi Garrick,

This is amazing app. I tried run in my pc (Linux) and gave following error: Using tweets from: NA Getting Tweet oembed HTML, this may take a minute... Using {furrr} to speed up the process Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : invalid 'description' argument

It seems to be in the function

 tweets <- import_tweets(
    TWEETS_FILE,
    tz_global   = tz_global(),
    topic_terms = TOPIC$terms,
    start_date  = TWEETS_START_DATE,
    blocklist   = BLOCKLIST
)

Just one question what mean %||%? ( I never saw nothing like this). I found in %||% <- function(x,y)

Do you have a collection of tweets stored in data/tweets.rds? It seems like you might not have collected tweets yet, which the app in the master branch of this repo doesn't do for you.

The %||% is called a null coalescing operator and x %||% y returns y is x is NULL.
