Whenever I make the mistake of opening Twitter, especially in the morning, I wish a box would pop up with the following message: “WARNING: This website is not real and your species has not evolved to process this much garbage at once. Get off now and make your day what you want it to be.”
All advice is autobiographical. A reader tweeted this page from my own book this week:
You’re going to see a lot of stupid stuff out there and you’re going to feel like you need to correct it. One time I was up late on my laptop and my wife yelled at me, “Quit picking fights on Twitter and go make something.”
I still fail at this at least weekly, but to quote Jules Winnfield from Pulp Fiction, “I’m trying Ringo. I’m trying, real hard.”
