Good plan! Right now I'm in another downturn with long COVID /fibromyalgia. Trying to focus on audiobooks instead. Just frustrated at how little I can work on days that I can work at all.
I have pretty much abandoned Twitter and Facebook. They are too detrimental to my state of mind. I don’t need a daily dose of something that either depresses, annoys, or infuriates me. But I have spent too much time on TikTok watching music and comedy. It’s addicting. 🤣 So I do that sparingly.
You are probably better off. 🤣 When you first get TikTok, it shows you all kinds of weird stuff. It takes a little time for it figure out what you like, by who you follow and what videos you “like.” Then it is very addicting, because it shows you cool new videos all the time, and you can just swipe past anything that doesn’t interest you. Plus you can watch livestreams by musicians, which are basically informal live concerts. My acoustic trio livestreams every Thursday for two hours.
Just have some tissue ready if you watch the military home coming videos. 🤣
Not me. However, I am married to someone who does this so kept up to date whole reading Eclectic Ink instead. Much more enjoyable 🥰
Glad to be your substitute for doom scrolling!
I’m working on writing or doodling instead of doom scrolling

I love a happy ending. This is good. The question is, did she make it to the airport?
She did!
Oh heck no, well once in a while... mostly scrolling cute cat videos. The story is great, and glad she got that message!
Cats are addictive! One leads to two leads to three leads to... Doesn't matter if it's live cats or videos!

I haven't figured Tik Tok out. I honestly have spent almost no time there.
I see lots of cat videos from Tik Tok posted on Twitter. So maybe I need a Tik Tok account. ;-)
I might go there for cats!

I think I'll just give it all a miss. I don't need another time waster in my life. :-)
Totally understand. Less social media, more real life.
