good for you<\/a>. It improves your sleep and strengthens your immune system, and can even reduce chronic pain. So let\u2019s consider 10 more things we can all be grateful for this Thanksgiving, none of which involve the numerous eight-legged sexy mites which right this second are living on your face.<\/p>\n\nElon Musk<\/h2>\n
God bless this dork, seriously. No one in history has so clearly demonstrated that the ultrawealthy who run the world have absolutely no idea what they\u2019re doing. Generally they\u2019re smart enough to remain hidden behind their phalanx of money and guns. But with Musk\u2019s purchase of Twitter, he was willing to come out, shout \u201cHere we go, into the future!\u201d and then trip on his shoelaces and fall down 900 flights of stairs.<\/p>\n
Of course, there\u2019s a downside here. A prominent linguist named Edward Sapir wrote this in a book published in 1921:<\/p>\n
Everything that we have so far seen to be true of language points to the fact that it is the most significant and colossal work that the human spirit has evolved. \u2026 Language is the most massive and inclusive art we know, a mountainous and anonymous work of unconscious generations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
This is true\u00a0about language, and on a smaller scale is also true about Twitter. Twitter is a colossal work of art produced by hundreds of millions of people working together for free, with no particular goal in mind. They just all had a burning need to share their miscellaneous thoughts with the universe.<\/p>\n
