But also, as I’m learning, not engaging with social media basically makes you invisible to a majority of social circles.

I tell people I’m an artist and they’re shocked I don’t have Instagram. “Yeah it sucks my attention away and traps me in doomscrolling. I’m on like, Signal and Discord tho!”

Awkward look annnd ghosted. Lol.

Being on predatory platforms sucks away your time and soul. (I remember twitter loved showing me stuff it knew would bother me.)

…but that’s where all the people are. What a concept.
