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.
Congratulations to @steve-allen and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Steve-allen What pet did you always want but never got ?
@Wilbner What food have you "overdosed" on many years ago, and refuse to eat now?
Hey everyone, summer is peaking now and had to get away for some RnR and attended the Baseball Circus--aka Cosmic Takeover Tour in Reno NV...not my cup of tea but the families with kids enjoyed it...chaos on top of chaos

If you watched the Five the past 15 years, you'd heard perhaps unknowingly, the Cramps. I've played their songs hundreds of times, over the years - often my favorite songs of theirs repeatedly, hoping to create new fans of the greatest rock and roll band ever.
the band ended with Lux Interior's death - and since then most of the integral players have either expired or moved on. Guitarist Poison Ivy has led a fairly reclusive life, likely not getting much from the Cramps legendary status.
Maybe until now. Thanks to Henry Rollins - a massive Cramps fan - he's resurrected the Cramps old label Vengeance records, and released a collection of old songs from a late 70' studio session, done back during the recording of classic album "songs the lord taught us." Produced by Alex Chilton and done on a shoe-string in Memphis - its controlled madness. the record "Gravest Gravy" came out last week, so I picked up both digital and vinyl - knowing that Ivy is gunna see some of that dough.
