I know there is a premium version that you can pay for but it is so satisfying to scroll this app and not run into distracting ads. I know it is bound to happen here too but I am just soaking it in.

You can sidestep the anon avatar terrorists that exist on social media, and whatever far-right person with an anime photo wants you to see by paying a little money to get glossy or matte paper sent to you on a monthly basis.
Slow Media gets you news that's less expiration-al, without an algorithm programmed to recreate 'A Clockwork Orange' on your slab of glass and lithium.
It's not perfect, but it's preferrable to weaponized words that tie dukkha to your dopamine receptors.

if you're trying to get off Youtube (but still find value in people's work) this is for you... basically you get to decide exactly what sections of the site to hide/remove (i disabled autoplay, home page, recommendations and shorts -- anything algorithmically generated)! plus it makes you pay attention to WHO exactly you're subscribed to and what you want to cultivate in your media diet

In this regard, to what I like to call a funk.
I feel très dookie. Lots of change in my life, and in times of instability I tend to fall off the horse- in a major way. Like many ppl. This past go round I have been excessively hard on myself over my general lacking in… well almost everything. Ive come to the conclusion that there are times you have to give yourself more grace than you’d like to. Maybe the pity party can last a couple more days than usual. I won’t go into details, bc as those of you reading who have dealt with mental health struggles, it can be sort of gross. Sure. There’s a ton I could be doing to put an end to my funk. Make more of an effort to dig myself out of the hole. But, at the end of the day I know I will come out of the funk in my own time. Faking myself out, and convincing myself I’m feeling better serves no one.
Making yourself feel worse over feeling bad in the first place is just wildly counterproductive. Just keep moving forward in time. There’s a lot of it <3
