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.

@APalm Do you remember a time that you succumbed to peer pressure, or resisted it?

Morning Gutter Gang. Today happens to be a day of note, I'd say. My bride, Claire, and I were married 41 years ago today. A lovely 2 pm ceremony at a small chapel officiated by family friend, Father John Malaki. Coincidentally, the good padre had officiated the wedding of my parents years earlier during his first year of priesthood. And we were fortunate to have my Godfather sing that day at the service. The song I had requested he sing that was originally featured in the show and film The Music Man and famously covered by the Beatles who performed the song on their first Ed Sullivan appearance.
I hope you like "Till There Was You"
