most other social medias feel like they’re trying to sell you something and i would end up in a spiral bc i was seeing all these lifestyles that i can’t afford and it just made me depressed - but here people genuinely want to share things that they love and give personal advice
Just people sharing snippets of their life, recommending things they genuinely like, talk about things they dislike... it feels authentic compared to other platforms where everything feels like a show
I find so many cool things on here because theyre recommended by real people with real interests and not bots. Or recommendations are not tailored by consumerism patterns or something. People are just genuinely excited to share things that make them happy and there’s nothing to be gained out of it besides communal joy and understanding.
feeling grateful for my mutuals and for every recommendation i got. i feel like this platform is healing me after using twitter as my only social media for years. everyone is genuinely helpful and it’s so refreshing when everywhere else is full of hate and negativity.. being on here just gives me hope like these are the people i’ve always wanted as my friends. it’s cool to just be yourself, to appreciate the small things and to share joy & that’s what the internet should be about!
I made this card for my best friend’s birthday and I’m very proud of it - I drew things that remind me of her like her cats and her fav movie as well as photos of some of my fav memories together - it took so long because there were so many tiny pieces of paper to cut out but I just put on a movie and in the background and had fun crafting which was actually very relaxing
recently been getting in the habit of writing down my thoughts on movies/tv shows/albums and it really helps me to think more deeply about the media i consume - i also keep an index in the back to keep track of everything
