I know you wrote this to be a tweet, yet I feel like this could be turned into an entire blog post.

“cant”=to talk about something sanctimoniously; “can’t”=cannot

RT @MFAer3: “cant”=to talk about something sanctimoniously; “can’t”=cannot

This just all feels a little too self-conscious to me.

Nice.

Your updates read like you JUST discovered Raymond Carver or something.

These are tenacious flash tales of addiction, confession, and recovery in the digital age. Told with remarkable deftness. I mean it: bravo.

I read “cant” without an apostrophe as the author finally revealing his experimental side to us.

If I were you, I’d try this in third person.

This reminds me a lot of a tweet I read recently from @newyorker.
