Social media engagement is great… until you're reminded that most people only show up when they’re personally offended and ready to draw blood. At that point, launching my phone out the window feels like the only logical response 😂😵😩

I deleted my Twitter about 2 years ago. Facebook usage is down to roughly once a week and Instagram is starting to go that way. I'm just so burnt out with social media as a whole. If I didn't sell my art, I'd probably just delete them all 😮💨
For what it’s worth, I’ve heard from Ed Zitron from the podcast “Better Offline” (while a guest on Trashfuture) mention that a lot of those are bots to try to ruin your experience so you don’t post, and thus don’t form an actual “social network”. It’s done to isolate and silence you.
not at all, just to explain - I believe AI profiles are going to be used to give the feeling that Facebook is "more alive" than it really is, and yes, they do get in the way of you finding regular people too
Every day I need suck in such a hard breath between clenched teeth over the sheer idiocy online. I respond to less than 1% of the people who legit agitate me and block like it's paid work. But holy moly do I sometimes just wanna go unhinged on some of these clowns.
As someone who pride myself with being _very_ collected, brother bear, do I wanna just go full ape, strip any and all decencies and tell people just where to fucking stuff it. This is why I take hour long walks every week, I suppose.
