Oh hello WordPress! This feels a little awkward, but welcoming at the same time. I haven’t written a blog entry on any platform since at latest 2009, but here I am back in the saddle of blogging.
So why am I doing this? It’s literally been decades.
Because things are moving too fast for me these days. Social media is crazier than ever, shoving more content and jolts of dopamine and anger down my throat than I can handle. Feeds are starting to give me panic attacks, and aren’t showing me the content that I originally signed up for in the first place – updates about my friends and what’s going on with things I am interested in. The algorithms are working overtime to bring me the next best thing with a huge helping of panic about the world burning around me, and it just isn’t my vibe anymore. So I’m giving my poor monkey brain a break and am going slocial.
I know I’m not the first to coin this phrase, but honestly I love it. Slocial is way to keep my buds in the loop of what is going on in my sphere without ads, rage bait, and AI-assisted anything. Taking it back to 2006, if you will. So I’m gonna blog it out. Some days I’ll post, some days I won’t. I’m just floating along wherever the lazy river of life and thought take me. Slowly. Moisturized. Unbothered.
Anyways, here’s to new beginnings and less stressful things in life.
