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.

Happy Mother's Day to moms who can find literally anything in the house... except five minutes of peace and quiet.
Today we celebrate the hugs, the advice, the casseroles, the “text me when you get home,” . Yes, I still tell them to text me when they get home even though I track them. Yea. I track them. You never stop worrying.
Please share your favorite Mother’s Day memory, funny mom story, or a photo of someone special you’re remembering today. We’d love to celebrate with you all.
Rented a little spot in La Jolla for the weekend. Weather is amazing
