quite healthy for your relationship with social media to evolve and mature over time. Sure I look back with no small amount of cringe but also fondness for the me who was posting thirst traps in 2010, or bad goth poetry in 2005…it’s like having a public diary isn’t it? I guess that’s the crux of it…

Yes I remember us having a conversation about this a while ago…I guess it’s a natural progression as our lives shift from being more public to private, and a new platform does make you think about what an accurate snapshot of your life at this time might look like. I also think that it’s probably…

It’s scary times alright; I’m sorry they have made you feel fearful, it must be awful to be in one of the groups he is trying to scapegoat. Hang in there, hoping for all of our sakes this nonsense is confined to that side of the pond, and over quickly!

in retrospect I was just fooling myself, trying to believe I was the coolest/edgiest/cleverest person in the room. Hard cringe at some of those memories haha! It’s all a journey though and I’m happy with the world I inhabit now, even though I’ve shed a lot of the things that I thought made me, Me.

Hey Rainn/Kenzie, thanks for such a lovely reply - I remember you from back in the days, I’m glad to hear you’re doing well and have found space to express your true self - it can be hard, can’t it, finding out who you are; I think back on periods where I thought I was being authentic as fuck and

wonder if it’s just that my love affair with social media is over. Do I still really need to express my thoughts and opinions online? Is the risk of negative engagement, and the knock on effect on my mental wellbeing, worthwhile? Is this a common sentiment among my vaguely xennial peers? 3/3

…to fit different platforms, even different profiles on platforms. Twitter for politics, IG for work and curated content, Facebook to keep up with friends and acquaintances gathered over the best part of two decades.
