1635 || it really is these damn phones

Published 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

I've been working on my relationship with my phone, on and off, for years. Sometimes, I use it as a tool. Sometimes, it feels like it's using me as a tool.


Genuine + deeply rooted ad fatigue, traumatic events sprung upon me, most content is some form of engagement/rage/anxiety/fear bait, brain rot + ai slop, trolls + bot accounts. Misinformation + disinformation campaigns financed by literal government entities.


It's disheartening to feel like I am the tool being used, and I think I am finally ready to confront this toxic relationship.
