decided I’m going to delete just before the new year (once I’ve archived my blog.) if we’re mutual and you want to stay in touch pls send me a message!!
Noooo why are you deleting your blog? Are you gonna be making a new one or are you leaving tumblr for good?
there’s lots I really like about this website (my mutuals, being able to curate beautiful pictures, finding new writers and films and music) and it’s much, much better than most other platforms, but I think I’ve realised it’s basically impossible for me to use social media moderately or in a healthy way. there’s worse places I could be spending my time online but it’s still taking me away from activities that are more fulfilling at the end of the day. and although I’ve made an effort to really curate my experience and not take anything on here too seriously, there are still unpleasant people on here and it’s often an echo chamber in a way I find increasingly frustrating the older I get and the more actual life experience I have. also I do have a tendency to over-share on here and the more followers I get the more I get in my head and start second-guessing what I post. I already left tumblr once before (had my old blog from the ages of 14 to 22) and I’m remembering why.
posting for accountability. tomorrow I am going to: finish the clear out of my clothes I started today (literally I have been doing this for MONTHS.) tidy my studio space. get started on a digital declutter (sort out/merge my three separate email accounts 🫠) book some overdue appointments for the new year. buy some things I need (new overnight bag, etc.) DRAW!!
the time between christmas and new year is a liminal space. I have no idea what day it is and instead of meals I’m eating chocolate and random things from the fridge.
