The year is almost done, which feels both impossible and long overdue.

2020 was a strange 12 months, but at least we had one thing we could count on: good tweets. A small consolation, sure, but it's something at least.

We here at Mashable have been collecting our favorite tweets of the week nearly all year, and even compiled the best posts of the first half of the year. So, here we are, in December, giving you our best tweets of the year. And sure, there are lots of good tweets out there and we probably missed a bunch, but whatever, we liked these.
