I would’ve have a smart phone.

I’m a supervisor. I supervise a production department for a small company. I need my phone for obvious reasons.

It’s just stupid that it is necessary to have one. A person couldn’t have a management position without one because they need to be contacted at any given time.

I watch reaction videos to TikTok influencers and it is mind boggling to me why people watch them, even if the reason to watch is to crap on content. They comment for the same reason why the influencer made the video, so people would notice them.

But the main problem is the over consumption, the fake high end lifestyles portrayed and anything else that is rage bait.

And on the platforms like Substack, people write content to get people angry. Some people do provide good information but it is also meant to get an emotional response from the reader, preferably anger. And it is because they want views.

And a lot of those content creators sell merch of some kind, clothing and/or health products like supplements.

Everyone is looking to bank on content.

So I developed a personal plan to go off grid by the time I am in my early sixties. I can’t handle the social media and I hate that I find myself watching it all the time.
