In my early days of my corner of Disney Twitter it was a little like the wild west. Everybody beat up on everybody else, people made fun of other people (in a mean way), groups of people pouncing on someone for an opinion or perceived injustice were rampant. It was <c>

really kind of unpleasant, in retrospect.

Over time I became friends with a lot of the people I had an aversion to. Misconceptions, mistrust gave way to some really enduring friendships, loving relationships - people I count on and revel in their company.

I hope, anyway.

Be excellent to each other and love each other.

Because life is too damn short to worry about people on the internet.

You have 100% control over who you let into your Twitter feed. Who you follow, who you interact with, even the words that appear there.

My Twitter is a really nice place to be. Yours should be too.

So if you’re friends with people who engage in that behavior maybe <c>

privately encourage them to be nicer, be a little better.

I’m not a believer in the “call out” or attacking people. It’s unproductive and usually does more harm than good.

But my friends have changed me over the years for the better and I like to think I’ve helped them too.
