I find reaching for my phone, opening Twitter and scrolling to be a hugely compelling activity. The thrill is something like a soap opera, reading updates from the various dramatis personae. As 2020 scaled the heights of the culture war, a narrative was imparted on their posts. Idle thoughts become skirmishes in a grand battle. And the format of Twitter allows for me to model responses and reactions as I read. Half-imagined repartee I could post, but why bother when I can play it out in my head, getting half the rush with none of the risk.
