social media has flattened the way we interact with each other
it's not your fault

social media *does* keep us in touch with friends we can't see every day. it's not just wishful thinking, it's actually a cool way to talk to people without having the hours-long phone calls people had back before SMS was common, or only ever talking to the people physically near you, or whatever.
the trick is, it's addictive. and it makes us all crave some version of success, whether it's more followers or just the attention of some particular person.
it's hard for us to just use it well.

It’s odd because despite no longer being in school, I still feel like the odd one out against my peers (in terms of using social media and things like that). I really try to have fun with it but I am left feeling strange, like I’m being observed like a zoo animal. I don’t engage with anyone I follow despite the fact that I know them all personally. And I feel like I’m nothing like any of them. And not in a quirky fun way. I just don’t feel like I’m experiencing life in the way that other people in their 20s are.
This is a complete mess of rec but its just a few thoughts I have been having. Just one more reason why I love this app so much as opposed to the others.

i hate social media
i want to touch grass with my friends and be barefoot in space
but it’s just so intertwined with interactions now and the power to connect & build relationships with people so far away is incredible and really important for us continuing to understand eachother better
i like that i can do that i wish we could all travel more and do this in real life that way but that’s not real is it
it’s really a double edged sword. i think it’s just the way shits gonna be moving forward and we have to figure out ways to have the healthiest relationships we can with it
