Ditching social media

I have been fighting depression a long time and I finally came to the conclusion that I can’t stand the two major social media platforms of 2019, Facebook and Twitter.  Facebook just allows people to voyeur into your life and Twitter is the land of depression and screaming old men.  They don’t make me happy, they don’t have any useful purpose in my life and I am done with them.

Every major family blowup starts on Facebook.  Every new round of depression starts on Twitter.  They are destructive platforms that never improve, are full of advertisements, packed with a distorted view of how people live, and just outright lives.  I have had this website for over 20 years and it makes me sad how little I have been updating this site and just enjoying any hobbies in general.

Moving forward, I will get back into photography, experimenting with a DSLR for the first time in my life and finding out what will make me happy.  I know without Facebook and Twitter I will have a lot more time on my hands.
