Write an 8-tweet thread about: {topic}
</task>

<voice>Casual</voice>

<structure>
- **Tweet 1 (the hook)**: curiosity, contrarian take, or specific outcome. Make the reader unable to scroll past. Avoid "I" or "me" if possible.
- **Tweets 2-3 (setup)**: ground the reader in the situation. Story or specific moment.
- **Tweets 4-6 (the meat)**: the insight or framework. Each tweet adds ONE thing.
- **Tweet 7 (twist or contrarian beat)**: a specific example, quote, or reframing.
- **Tweet 8 (soft CTA)**: invite reply / save / follow. NOT "what do you think?". Be specific.
</structure>

<rules>
- Each tweet ≤ 280 chars. Stand-alone (someone screenshotting one should still get value).
- Numbered: `1/`, `2/`, … `8/` at the start.
- No hashtags. No emoji unless the voice demands it.
- No "in todays world", "as a society", "we are living through".
- Plain language. Avoid LinkedIn-isms ("excited to share").
</rules>
