It is a perfect paragraph

[Andrew Porter @AndrewPorter01]

It’s hard to say why I love this paragraph by Eula Biss so much, but I reread it every so often. Maybe just the subtle movement and economy of it, the way she takes us from one mental state to another in just a few lines. It’s basically a perfect paragraph

[Sunisa Manning @sunisasn]

@AndrewPorter01 It’s perfect. I agree

Now would be a great time for everyone on Twitter to subscribe to a newspaper.
