      We were talking I would t have to ask 140 characters at a time. Also twitter makes dishonestly and lack of empathy easy. It's just typing

      I wonder if the difference is that you expect people to be dishonest & ill-motivated & conversation to be a battle & I assume the opposite?pic.twitter.com/LFUnI7qCUz

      I mean. I KNOW people are dishonest. I've been on the internet for 8 seconds. Conversation is real time empathetic human interaction.
