imagine future archaeologists, brushing dust off the fossilized servers, discover this primordial tweet the way we once discovered cave paintings.

Instead of bison & spears they find someone proudly announcing that they've begun... whatever.

And like all beginnings, it contained its endings in embryo.

A civilization doesn't collapse due to a tweet, of course. It collapses cuz millions read it, nodded, & thought:

yes, I, too, shall announce my existence into the void.
