if you're into meditation, you'll probably enjoy this piece a lot.
if you're not into it, or you plan on responding below in a way that suggests you didn't read the article -- you'll appear somewhat as proof of what the article contends. but even if you don't meditate or even spend time on social media, you'll completely understand the weird physical feeling you get from a disturbing thought (a remembrance of a past embarrassment, for example), and the similar feeling you get when you are hit with a tweet (or whatever) that irks you.
the analogy fits: the feelings arising from thinking a troubling thought are almost no different than the feelings arising from reading an upsetting tweet.
the conclusion is to operate social media the same way you monitor your own thoughts - which is to examine what the thought might actually be, and then disarm and discard it. which is what one does often in meditation.

On the last day of our weekend getaway, we visited the new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in Medora. Phenomenal is hardly a strong enough adjective for how incredible this library is.
They give you a wristband that allows you to interact with exhibits in each room. If you take your photo upon entering (it's optional), your photo will be used to produce items you create and add to your digital journal during your visit.
Every room has a different feel and theme. For example, there is the campfire story room where the ceiling looks like a starry night, and seats of logs and tree stumps allow you to sit around a faux campfire and listen to the stories come to life on a video screen. There is a room decorated like a turn-of-the-century train car with videos playing in the windows, the sound of the steam engine in the background, and a vibrating floor that feels like you're riding on an actual train.
And the architecture of the building itself is beautiful with intricate wood ...
After watching the rise in foreign born politicians, who bash our country, our founding and our way of life, something occurred to me. It almost seems like they didn't just IMMIGRATE here, but they were actually SENT here. Same goes for many of the other illegals who've invaded our country. The were sent here to steal our money, hijack our politics, and generally destroy our society. They are way too organized, way too well funded, and way too consistent in their message for this to just be a bunch of random miscreants.
It reminds me of medieval times when a siege army would catapult diseased bodies over an impenetrable wall to sicken those inside.
