MY 2020 TWITTER EXPERIENCE | MY SHORT PERSONAL LIST

 

In my post on social media and revolution, I let on that I got on Twitter this year.

 

It has been a really mixed experience because it was literally, a new world. 

Twitter, I found, is a really fun place to be(especially when you’re at the laughing end).

 

Over the months, I bumped into accounts that I found very interesting and more than worthy of recommendation to tweeps(old or new). Accounts that offered even the oddest content but in very palatable ways, or as with the first on the list, simple motivation.

 

 

Without much ado, here are my four top twitter accounts for 2020.

 

 

 

 

STEVE HARVEY

 

I happened upon Mr. Harvey’s account much earlier than the rest on this list and it has taken the first spot in my heart ever since. Mr. Harvey shares in his tweets clips from many of his shows. All of which never fail to either crack you up or inspire you, even both at the same time.

 

He shares his story, (how he started from and with nothing), his relationship experiences and how he got to where he is today. What he does every morning, what people should get right about their perceptions, just about everything and in a way that doesn’t weigh you down with how much you’ve been going about it wrong, but rather gives hope.

 

His clips are just one you’d want to turn on notifications for.

 

He narrates how he handed his life and worries to God and how He has taken him through every phase of his life. How he still isn’t perfect but is, in his own words, an imperfect soldier for Christ.

 

It’s not really easy putting into words, what makes him my favourite Twitter ‘presence’ but I think you’ll see it for yourself.

 

 

 

ALHAJI BEARDLESS SMALLIE

 

The Honourable Minister of Violence Affairs. This guy is all for the heated parts of twitter. What makes me really like what he does is that it is so non-toxic and funny at the same time.

 

He  makes daily summaries of what happens on the bird app and is so apt that even if you were offline for a week, all you need are seven of his summaries.

 

 

What’s more, he holds ‘commercial breaks’ during summaries(laughs). Whether you’re on twitter for the violence or not, you’ll surely find this account very entertaining.

 

 

 

GENERAL ZEE

 

More on the peaceful side, this account gives you some of the widest range of entertaining information. Here, you get threads on just about anything and they are bound to give you something new that you can either share or brag about to your friends.

 

It is a really educative one, spanning history, animals, and a lot of other topics that never leave you bored on any thread.

 

This account will definitely give you knowledge about things you didn’t even know mattered.

Puns never really meant much to me till I met this guy.

 

This account was the first one I encountered that made puns and wordplay content. The tweets are bound to make you ask ‘how did he think of that?’

The content here is really simple and at most is a few sentences but you won’t see it coming. Trust me, ‘he don’t miss’.

 

Puns are normally dry or lack the wow factor but this and some other accounts I have happened to meet on twitter streets, have changed everything I knew about it.

 

You’ll definitely want to check him out.

I’m sure that I’m going to come across many more but as the year draws to a close, these are my personal favourites.

 

Feel free to check them out or leave your own recommendations, I’d love to get yours too.
