In long-overdue news
that is still nonetheless welcome
women in Saudi Arabia
will be able to get driver's licenses
in 2018
and Americans get to remain covered
by the Affordable Care Act.
And with the ostensible aim of encouraging
more verbose users
to Tweet their thoughts
but in reality
perhaps making a last-ditch effort
to save the world
by hopefully making Trump more articulate
Twitter is considering increasing
its character limit
from 140 to 280 characters.
