The value of Twitter isn’t just everyone in the world constantly screaming at each other over every topic imaginable, there’s also funny stuff in there. And often it’s funny in a way that transcends a simple chuckle. It can also resonate, and make you feel, dare I say it, weirdly empowered? Not to make too much of it, but some...

If you’ve ever spent any time in LA, you know that it’s a special kind of culture there. Unique to say the least.

They say that having a kid is like watching your heart run around outside of your body. I don’t have any children myself, but I can see how that could hold true.
