I tweet for me boo 😭 Twitter for the OGs was basically a diary. We wasn’t sitting around chasing engagement . You just had a thought, tweeted it, and kept scrolling. If somebody saw it, cool. If they didn’t, oh well 😂 Twitter originally wasn’t even about likes like that. It was just people broadcasting their random ass thoughts into the universe.
the disappointment i feel after being vulnerable is not rooted in the act of opening up but in the realization that sincerity is often received with far less care than it takes to offer it. there is something profoundly disorienting about exposing the most fragile parts of yourself only to discover that the person listening did not hold them with the same gravity you carried them with.
“People know exactly what they’re doing”
Until it’s you. Then suddenly, your intentions matter. Everyone wants grace for themselves, but rarely wants to extend it to others.
I think about this lady’s best friend all the time. She was NOT playing about her friend. Knew her schedule, the meds she takes and at what time, and that shit was off IMMEDIATELY! May we all have a friend like her a be a friend like her
