Cutting out most social media cold turkey was quite possibly one of the best things I ever did. It hasn't even been a week and I'm seeing significant improvements in my mood, anxiety, and productivity.

The social media experiment is over. We need to go back to online forums/message boards.

Day 3 off of mainstream social media. Today's agenda: Play video games, do the daily NYT puzzles, bake cookies with my children, and go outside to enjoy the crisp January air.

I hope everyone has a good day. Take care of yourselves.

I deleted TikTok last night, and I am not redownloading it. Gonna miss the community there, but the stunt that's being played is something I want no part in.

My advice is to folks who are feeling deep stress over the political climate. If possible, unplug. Go outside.

Physically, go outside and spend some time there, be present with the external world. If possible, connect with people you care about. Be present in the current moment.

Being in a very small town in the Southeast, TikTok was a big part of how I got news from around the world. Can anyone suggest websites/people to follow on here/podcasts? Since I deleted my Meta accounts, I feel cut off from the world in a sense.

I deleted Facebook today after 16 years on the platform. Ads, privacy, AI, bots, and so many other reasons. Meta shouldn't own communication, anyone who wants to keep up with my family has my phone number. Frustrated but feel liberated.
