Read on Twitter
In danger of being ratio'd in a very minor way here, which gave me pause for thought - so here's my thought.
I'm not arguing with the responses that anger is justified, or righteous, or maybe needed.
But I wonder what anger on *twitter* has ever been good for. https://twitter.com/imrankhan/status/1264576059594465281

Seriously. What have angry tweets ever achieved?
Does they even make us feel better?
Like, the thing I've found so tragic about lockdown is the loss of moments.
They're all life is made of, and it feels like they're being stolen. One after another, after another, after another

And tell me I'm being naive, but shouldn't we do social media because it's entertaining? Or at least useful?
I'm just finding it unbearably sad about Cummings Twitter (and yes I recognise the irony here) that instead of either of those, all it does is create a circle of fury.

The fury doesn't bloody do anything.
If the anger was helping us create change, or donate time or money, or fix things... that'd be something.

But today it just goes round & round & round.
And it robs us of yet more of those moments that could instead be sun-drenched, or filled with friends, or spent in stories.
Anyway. That's why I feel like the twitter reaction's worse than the thing itself.
