I feel like twitter is where I practice my more ephemeral thoughts and read about or engage on issues that might be important without getting really emotionally lit up
good practice for not fixating on thoughts

Twitter has a likeness to ilx but its not ilx. She is much better than quirky and she writes longer pieces, like this one
