since leaving meta/twitter/tiktok verse…. noticing how differently my social battery functions?? all i want to do is see my friends and spend time in person, to look around and observe the happenings in public, to actually read the books and magazines at the coffee shop. & aching awareness of the mismatch btwn friends who are often online & also often unable to follow through on plans we’ve made .. how a thousand online interactions drains one’s battery so completely that every night has to be a self-care night. sigh. i hope for all our hearts’ sake we seek a sweeter balance .. take care, take care
