I quit Facebook
 

such a relief. it was a never ending trash fire and time suck

kill it with fire. kill the social with fire

i'll miss ya

but i'm like THE queen of surface level so i doubt you'll miss me. you'll miss the cute baby pics, whether you admit it or not

I thought everyone sort of quit Facebook, to be honest.

I'm still on the fb, guys


get at me

I deactivated my Facebook account about two years ago. At first, I intended it to be temporary, but I never got around to reactivating it, and felt better without it.

All it did was amplify my insecurities by demonstrating how I fail to measure up to my peers. And yes, I know, the thing about Facebook is that everybody is only positing the best parts of their lives and you're not getting a representative look, that you're "comparing their front stage to your backstage." But even if I hold that variable constant and only compare the best parts of my current experience to the best parts of theirs, I still come up wanting. Pretty sure it's not a perception thing, and that I didn't do something cool like hang glide in Thailand or get my work published only to forget about it. I'd wager that my self-perception of being an unaccomplished and boring person is pretty accurate.

Although I started an Instagram for my photos, and now I'm pretty much back where I started with facing an onslaught of examples of how everybody else is better than I am.

I actually am an unaccomplished and boring person.

Livejournal is sorely missed. It was okay to be a loser there.

who cares about being an accomplished person. now that's a real waste of time.

i've quit maybe a hundred thousand or so times. thereabouts.

Every time I click deactivate, a little piece of me dies.

i quit facebook so long ago, i can't even find when that was. 10+ years ago.

must've been somewhere around may 2008.

facespace is trash.

Facebook ordered by Germany to gather and mix less data

Still the remaining reason I don't deactivate is to get tour/new release news from bands I follow.

If there was an app or website used by the majority of bands that announced new music/tours, I would ditch FB in a heartbeat.

Myspace?

oh wait those are bands no one listens to

i've got y'all beat. i haven't had a cellphone since late november.

don't worry. i might get a new one this weekend. still won't buy a smartphone, though.

i miss angelfire guestbooks. deviantart was fun in 2001 when it was new. yahoo karaoke chats...omg don't even get me started!

cool i won't

I've never even, like, had a cellphone in my life.

it's an american expression. kekeke

i refuse to believe any bands are actively using myspace

Bandsintown?

Bush is playing here on Saturday for Mardi Gras.
