Life Update

To be honest, nothing "happened", life has just been good! I'm still continuing to reframe my mindset with how I interact with the internet and how I "consume content" (cringe to say that, i know) and how I rely on being fed content based on some algorithm (I don't).

It's been weeks of no Tiktok, I don't really scroll any "For You" pages on any social media, I'm not even on social media anymore (Does Tumblr count? I mostly scroll my "Following" tab anyways).

Since stepping away from a lot of social media or social media adjacent sites, I either have more time to investigate other interests OR I have more energy to do so. I never looked at my screentime on my phone so I'm not sure how much time was dedicated to social media.

I feel like I'm doing more and talking about doing things less, which I really appreciate. I do still feel like I'm juggling too many hobbies at the moment but I'm assuming that will level off eventually, when certain hobbies become prioritized or I discover I'm not too interested in other hobbies.

Oh, and because I separated myself from so much social media, I'm not being bombarded with politics 24/7. Don't get me wrong, I am still staying informed with what's going on in the world, but it's dedicated to about 1 hour each day, when I look up some news sites and articles and read in the mornings.

Definitely been more quality days and less days filled with dissatisfaction!
