Tweets are sometimes all we have. 

Have you ever had a day that you just couldn’t make work, no matter how hard you tried? You just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and there’s not a lot you can do about that. You try to go about your morning routine and do the stuff that you know will make you happy, but it falls short. You just wish you could start over and fast-forward to the next day. But you can’t do that, at least as far as I know, so you resolve to try anything that works. You go on a walk through your neighborhood, you eat a nutritious meal, and you call up a friend. These are all very worthwhile tactics and will help you through a lot of muck. But sometimes the only option that feels available to you is to scroll through tweets.

Scrolling through tweets might be the only thing that is available to you in a certain moment. You might be far from your loved ones, your support system, or the things that make you happy. Scrolling through tweets might not fix everything, but it can fix something. It can provide temporary relief as you dig yourself out of the hole that is your bad day. It can distract you from the malestorm of mundanity that is your everyday life. It can help you in ways you haven’t even conceived of yet. And that’s exactly what we’re here to do today.
