Twitter is often maligned, but it also exists to entertain us in a (sometimes) wholesome manner. Abigail Sanders decided to start a thread of “mom-style selfies.” She asked fellow users to send these selfies to their mothers with no context, and record their responses.
Well, the internet delivered. Not only did fellow Twitter users dutifully follow instructions, but their moms also sent cute responses that will probably make you feel better about the world.
