Twitter: The Best Form of Social Media
Upcity.com

In the world of Facebook,Snapchat,Instagram and many other social media platforms, nothing is better than Twitter.

Twitter is a platform with a multitude of reasons why it is better than any other forms of social media.

The funny memes you see on your Facebook timeline or your Instagram feed probably originated from twitter. Memes like Kermit the Frog, Obama and Biden, keep you laughing and give you something to show your friends that will still be funny when they see it. Let's be honest by the time they become new to you on Facebook, it's old news.

Twitter also keeps you up to date. The "moments" feature may seem useless to some. To others it's a great way to keep up to day on the latest news from politics, celebrity gossip and sports. Twitter moments was a good source to find alternative information of the 2016 election and to stream the presidential debates for free.

Why use tinder to find a bae when you can use Twitter? You have access to numerous attractive people from strangers you just happened to find or the cute person you always see on campus but don't have the nerve to talk to. Their twitter feed is a good place to get a taste of their personality. It's cuffing season everyone. So slide into that cuties D.Ms.

From Black Lives Matter and the Dakota Access Pipeline, Twitter is a platform to raise awareness on social, political and environmental issues. It's where people are able to speak their truths. Whether is raising awareness for political figures and their campaigns, or raising awareness for things like victim blaming in sexual assault cases, Twitter never fails to be a voice. It gives every user a chance to rally together in support of a common cause.

Twitter is a great place to keep other forms of social media alive. For instance, the social media app Vine that was shut down still lives on in our twitter feeds. When the hashtag "ripvine" trended, feeds everywhere were filled with the best vines created in the apps history.

Twitter connects people. It connects friends and family. It connects people from differing communities. It gives celebrities a great chance to interact with their fans better than any other platform.

Twitter is more than just social media and jokes. Its about the people from all over the world that can share at least one thing in common, the Twitter community. It's unique. From jokes, memes, searching for a bae during cuffing season, and activism. Twitter is different from any other social media platform there is today.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
