I will admit, I don’t listen to Halsey’s music. It’s not that I dislike it, it’s just that I have never taken the time. But I love her Twitter account. I feel like Halsey is one of the people in the world that uses her platform to be honest, open, and vulnerable.
And she’s kind.
Twitter is always a place that I hate to spend time in. Twitter is normally filled with a lot of people being angry, bullying, and being judgmental. But the truth is that there are good people out there in the world.
And I am appreciative of the people that inspire.
Halsey does that for me. She inspires me to be a better person and shows me that the people on Twitter are not all bad.
And here’s some of the tweets that I have loved the most.
WHEN SHE REMINDS PEOPLE IT’S OKAY NOT TO BE OKAY

seeing a lot of people on my feed rn talking about how hard quarantine has been on ur mental health in regards to food routines, distorted body image, control tactics etc. please be gentle with yourselves. its a long road I’ve walked myself. don’t be afraid to ask for help
WHEN SHE REMINDS YOU TO PUT YOURSELF FIRST
eat regularly, drink more water, don’t put emotional stock in the opinions strangers have of you, touch some grass or a leaf, forgive yourself for doing that embarrassing thing forever ago, take care of yourselves i wanna see happy faces in the crowd next year. promise me this.

WHEN SHE CALLS OUT TED CRUZ
Texas has the 6th highest maternal mortality rate in the USA. You’re an abomination. https://t.co/Wj7xmzekW9

WHEN SHE’S GOT JOKES
20/20 followers,, what is it like to wake up and just SEE THINGS.

WHEN SHE SAYS RELATABLE SHIT
i would die for taylor swift
— h (@halsey) July 24, 2020
WHEN SHE REMINDS YOU THAT YOU ARE WORTH EVERYTHING
u deserve friends and partners who want to share the light. being a personal cheerleader is exhausting, when they won’t do the same for u. you’ll know when u find the right humans to spend energy on bc u will feel weightless around them. it starts with u recognizing u deserve it.

THIS TWEET RIGHT HERE 👇🏻
If you wanna think someone is an asshole, go ahead. Lots of people with mental illnesses are great. Lots of them are assholes. Because they are people. With nuanced personalities. But making jokes specifically targeted towards bipolar hurts more than the 1 person ur angry with.

WHEN SHE REMINDS YOU TO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE STIGMAS
you can hate someone’s actions or opinions without contributing to stigma that damages an entire community of sometimes vulnerable people all for a couple of laughs.

WHEN SHE SPIRALS TOO
anyone else feeling weird spending so much time alone and spiraling into self analysis to the point where you are unsure if any part of your identity is real? Haha no ? ok <3 pic.twitter.com/HMOVDMtxbt

WHEN SHE ANSWERS QUESTIONS
A lip liner; detective https://t.co/1o6nguzD6c

RELATABLE AS FUCK
just realized I have gone through a pink hair phase every year since 2014. I am: a cliche

WHEN SHE SPITS KNOWLEDGE
The USA generates a tremendous amount of media that propagandizes “The American Dream.” Here are some statistics about the USA that may surprise some people who defend it as “the greatest country in the world”:

WHEN SHE DRAGS SOMEONE SO ELOQUENTLY
Imagine writing a generation defining series about a youth uprisal that defeats a tyrannical monster motivated by the preservation of “pure blood” and looking at THIS time in the world and going “hmm…yep. I’m gonna invalidate trans people.”
— h (@halsey) June 7, 2020
WHEN SHE REMINDS YOU TO KEEP GOING
I know a lot of people are tired, but we gotta keep the energy going. Please continue to show up if you are capable. The determination cannot dwindle. This is going to be a long haul. Exceptional change doesn’t happen in a week. 🙏🏼
— h (@halsey) June 7, 2020
A TWEET I’VE NEVER RELATED TO MORE
I thought I’d get better at making my own coffee bc quarantine but turns out I’m still a professional at the”tastes like dirt water ratio”. one grown up skill I still haven’t quite mastered.
— h (@halsey) May 24, 2020
WHEN SHE ASKS THE TOUGH QUESTIONS
i just made a pizza with vodka sauce cause i didn’t have marinara. new low for me or new high?
— h (@halsey) May 9, 2020
WHEN QUARANTINE HAS GOTTEN TO HER TOO
Anyone else just drinking coffee at night not giving a fuck about what time it is? This is probably my most damaging new lockdown habit.
— h (@halsey) April 28, 2020
WHEN SHE FEELS THE LOVE
I love you guys. I am very overwhelmed with emotion. I don’t really know what to say. I’ll put it into coherent thought soon. I just need a few days to soak this up.
— h (@halsey) January 19, 2020
WHEN SHE JUST FEELS RELATABLE AF
I’ve gone my whole life struggling to accept this part of me and I made art out of it. I feel happy. Thank you.
