Just to post filtered stuff from your life to gain validation from strangers you honestly don't care about? >_> Do I not get it cuz I'm old? Social media is so destructive. People end up caring so much about what some random person (who may be just trying to get a rise out of you) thinks. And we are ending up with a bunch of kids who are going to be pretty messed up. My daughter was telling me that a girl in her class( who is freaking 12) was all up in arms and complaining to a teacher about how someone in the UK responded to a post she made.

Xette33 03/11/22 9:18:45 AM #14:	Twitter confuses me the most. Like I only have a Twitter account to keep up with various esports players and youtubers. Idk how there are non-famous people who actually tweet random stuff and have followers. Also I'm obviously not using my real name on Twitter.
