Over a soft pink and orange background, scattered with an old Twitter logo, and the 'retweet' and 'favourite' buttons, text reads: In the early days of Twitter barely anyone I knew irl was there, so I made friends with strangers 140 characters at a time. We don't talk regularly any more - Twitter's not really the place it used to be - but there's a few I still like the posts of from afar. I know more about what's going on in their lives than a lot of my old school friends. One of them had a son who's like 5 years old now. He almost feels like distant family.
