Doing a Twitter detox.

Twitter is my only social media vice. And, I don't follow too many people, and the ones I do are, for the most part, ideological allies. Being a libertarian/neo-liberal, the culture in my feed is generally sober and non-partisan. Yet, things are still so, so, so fudgin stupid right now, it still sowers my mood if I'm careful.
I decided I think I'd like to ride out the next 3.5 years in a cone of ignorance as to what is going on in the country, as much as possible, and just see where we are then. Like, skipping commercials on a TiVO. I'm going to stay involved, but at a local level, and in a non-partisan way; issue advocacy only.
To try to do this, I've cut out Twitter for the last couple of days as I try to stay away for a week, and maybe longer. Man, already it's helping.
I'm still using Drudge as a methodone hit, but dang...this is like a vacation.

I am really bad at just jumping into any conversation and taking the opposite stance. I am a MAGA but not as bad as you all think.
I am wayyyy more normal than you all know.

Twitter is garbage now. Substack has become what Twitter was promised to be, before the King of All Incels took it over.

I don't drink more than once or twice a week, almost always Saturday, but when I do, I get absolutely hammered
I don't drink wine. Vodka is my favorite
Was hoping you would be the queen, but if I have to in order to get you over, then

Twitter is a cesspool.

BlueSky also a bit messy, but it’s at least swimmable.

I've only checked a couple of times, and that was related to the draft.
Basically cold turkey for one week now, and it's been divine. Even checking drudge has gotten more irregular. Don't really know what's going on in America. Don't really care. The Pope still alive?
