My family was surprised I wasn't updated on facebook happenings of some relatives. If only they could see what I'm following...

I unfollowed most people who like to post about glamorous lives (real or fake, who really knows).

I follow only what I care about, mostly food, interior design, comic artists, writers, good music bands and singers, dramaholics, and meme pages. XD

Not sorry. Not guilty.
I honestly couldn't care the less about people's issues. If they need something, sure. If they deserve congratulation, sure. But I don't really fancy seeing their faces constantly in my feed.

I mean, I don't even look at the mirror as often as they post pics. Most who post as much turn out to be annoyances. But no need to fret. Unfollow and block work just fine.

That's why SW is the only social media I have. Years ago I deleted my Instagram because I knew it was a lie. I was the most miserable I'd ever been but if you saw my Instagram you would've thought I was living the best life. I was sick of lying to myself and the world. I realized that social media isn't normal,this global telepathy is new but for the rest of human history nothing like this has existed.This level of sharing our lives with others or absorbing theirs has psychological ramifications. I realized I was using social media to prove something to people who didn't really matter. Also I don't care what people ate or their vacations or children. I do care about their pets though😂. Pet content I love.
