like SUPER wack the pendulum has swung into shit land and it's like I forgot to get off the boat

yeah i'm kinda like "well this is literally all i know" but there are lots of people who don't exist on the internet

I'd love to exist off the internet but my friendship circles have really shrunk since everyone had kids and stopped going out except for the most obvious occasions

yeah that + sobriety (read as: not going to the bars to hang out) + all of the creative endeavors i want to do just makes it hard to not be online

same. i have so much less free time now too and the internet is really one way to stay in touch with people beyond texting them "we really need to get together soon!" once every couple of months and never being able to carve out the time

yeah I feel like the ease of connection that internet once brought is all but gone completely; eroded by time and the training of algorithms

I completely got off of it (aside from online gaming) when I had a psychotic break in 2019. Stayed off for about 3 years and that was the happiest/healthiest time of my life. Now I just use it when I'm really bored and tired. Usually like 30 minutes before bed :)

But I really wanna get off of it again. It's so much better. You only miss the memes and stuff for a couple weeks. It's really similar to quitting an addiction lol
