You should get off Facebook. You should get off Instagram. That said, that’s harder for some people than others. In which case, you should make it harder for Meta to make money off you.

And after a week of disengaging with #Instagram, I have permanently deleted my account leaving over 5000 “followers” behind. Passive consumerism will kill us. There was vibrant, connected and abundant life before #META. I’m going back there.

The Washington National Cathedral is just a few blocks north of me and is a fantastic asset to the neighborhood. Aside from the building's beauty, there are open, grassy fields, formal gardens, an outdoor amphitheater, and several wooded trails to enjoy.
