FAQ

How deep is too deep for a status?
If it names a person, an argument, or a date, it's a diary entry, not a status. The best deep lines are specific about the feeling and vague about the story — everyone who reads one should be able to make it theirs.
Is it fine to post a deep status right after something happens?
Wait a day. A deep line posted mid-storm reads like a signal flare to one specific person; the same line posted later reads like perspective. The words work better when you're no longer inside them.
Why keep a deep status short instead of writing a paragraph?
Compression is what makes it hit. A paragraph explains the thought for the reader; a short line makes the reader finish it themselves, and that's the second read that deep statuses are built for.
