Why do I need social media tbh? I don’t even enjoy doom scrolling really… I find myself using it to escape from reality or get anxious about our impending doom as a species. Yet I do want connection, but wouldn’t my energy be better spent reaching out to people I know irl and inviting them for quality time in person? Yes.
But then at the same time I often don’t feel like I have most things in common with my local friends; my best friends I’ve met through the internet.
I do also like sharing my work and life, though I don’t do that nearly as much as I want to.
More than anything I want to build community and make new connections. Just one place online to call home, a platform aligned with my values, and people who share them.
