And it feels kinda odd. While I&#8217;ve already got more done in just one day than I probably would&#8217;ve in three, I miss the voices and the laughter. (no I&#8217;m not hearing voices)\u00a0 I was never one for herd mentality. Twitter lets you forget that not all is good only because the loudest says so. The integrity of a writer is not manifested in the amount of followers they have.\u00a0 In this short-attention-span world of ours, every single bit of critical thinking is important for sanity and goodness to prevail (hopefully, after all, fingers crossed), so don&#8217;t let anyone shout you out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Anyway, end of rant. Nothing really matters.
