When I take breaks from social media & what it means to me

Hello and welcome again. This will be quick and I would use this as a PSA if you’re trying to talk or connect with me in the present moment:

I don’t keep up with my social media. I have every major notification turned off. My distractive tendencies are off the roof so for the majority of the week, I shut my phone off. This is so I can focus. My goal in life is to NOT become “popular” on the internet, many have paved that way and I support them for it!

Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Snapchat are all HORRIBLE HORRIBLE ways to contact me. I purchased my domain so I could write blog posts. My twitter is on private because I rant on Twitter, not often but when I do, someone hold me back, about HS bullying mainly and to be honest I’ve avoided Twitter lately because one day it’s happy and minutes later the internet is upset again and I’m like holy shit what happened now. If you request me and I know you, I’ll add you. If not – sorry. It’s not personal.

“Moves” I’ve made to focus on myself: enrolled in acting classes, spending more time on Sunset and Melrose, weekly hikes all over, property hunting in the valley, and returned back to a routine that keeps me functioning. I’m taking care of myself the best I way I know how: positivity, music, and the fresh air. and the beach. always.

my phone has been blowing up lately as well. FYI my phone is on airplane or do not disturb mode for about 10-12 hours a day.

What moving to LA has taught me: you do not know where ANYONE lives. Like “stalking” people is a LITERAL PROFESSION and it’s creepy!!!!!! Turn on TMZ for your daily news. Unless you have a connection “I know XYZ who knows XYZ who knows him who knows XYZ”. PSA most people don’t want to be found. There have been times where I’ll see someone “famous” and you know what YOU KEEP WALKING PAST THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE PEOPLE and flashing lights are not cool. Privacy is hard to find here because of how costly homes are. There’s a reason as to why “gated communities” are a thing.

Respect. privacy. always.

Respect. privacy. always.

Respect. privacy. always. Again, for those like me with a hearing impairment. Respect Privacy. And children. Always respect the kids.

Dogs too. do not approach someone with a dog. do not pet a dog because it’s cute. ask first and let the dog sniff your hand.

All my love for the humans and the furry creatures.

…Is it Halloween yet??
