Bill Weir

“For over a decade, Twitter had been my prime tool to stay informed, find stories, and do the job of a reporter well enough to fill our Security Needs. But when it became an unhealthy filler of Love and Esteem Needs, it made me more antisocial. It distracted me from quality time with you, your mom, and friends outdoors. Instead of building a community IRL and tending to neglected friendships, I focused too much time chasing retweets from people I will never meet.”

“​Every time you help fill the bottom of someone else’s Pyramid of Needs, you fill the tops of your own.”
