Summary: I did not have a good holiday - how was yours? screenrevolt.com/newsletters/...

If you don’t see the connection between your actions and what’s happening, and how every small choice you make is either being a part of the problem or actually helping it: we can’t be friends - Aurora

It surprises me how much I love having my nose in a book these days. When I was in the peak of my obsession with being online I couldn't fathom reading being entertaining any more.

I wrote this knowing that not all of us are feeling happy and bright for the holidays - but you can build a community surrounding yourself with small steps! screenrevolt.com/newsletters/...

For a long time I did myself a disservice by only thinking I should be friends with people around my age. Young and old have lots to learn from each other

A gentle reminder. While it's quick and easy to buy something for loved ones for Christmas: the best gift you can give to someone is your time and attention.

You're not happy because you're not bored

Met up with a group of kind strangers today and made some new friends. Proud of myself!

I didn’t realize how much I was "disconnected" with the people around me until I stopped using my phone for 30 days. I wrote about my experience:

New site's up! I wasn't digging how substack was working for me so decided to build one for my dedicated blog: screenrevolt.com

Two things I want from bluesky: - Filter out politics from my feed- good vibes only - Scheduling 'posts' for later (are they really called skeets...? that feels... wrong)

I'm sad we're getting rid of these flip boards more in train stations. I LOVE the way these sound tchtchtchtchtch

I get guilty sometimes for not being more social out of the house on these dark/cold winter nights. Then I remind myself... this is my body and mind doing what is NATURAL -- I'm hibernating! Cozying up at home on these dark nights feels awesome - no shame needed

It's Friday evening. Nothing to do tonight except stay cozy at home with the blankets, my pup, a cup of tea, and a good book. #introvertsdream

I've been having a hard time reading fiction lately. Since winter is coming I've been trying a rhythm of non-fiction in the morning and fiction in the eventing. It seems to be working quite well for my differing energy levels throughout the day!

I browsed around Twitter (X) this morning and left with some icky feelings - not sure I want to engage there. It felt like I was reading posts by robots writing viral-bait self improvement hacks 😔 Bluesky feels much better, real thoughts... imperfect humans! 💜

I wrote this post for Thanksgiving, remembering back to the days where I would begrudgingly sit at the dinner table with my family. This post is for anyone who wants to enjoy their time just a little bit more today. Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm limiting social media to 30 minutes a day for 30 days. On day 3 here's my report: - I'm noticing I have a lot more of my own thoughts running through my head. - The "itch" is strong to check on my posts. When I sit with it, I've realized it's anxiety misplaced as productivity.

Results of my plane experiment were quite surprising! Wrote about them on substack if you are curious.

I'm planning to get on a 4 hour flight today with no entertainment to see what happens with my brain. Wish me luck 😅

I've started writing long form content on substack! 100% free of course. First post delves in to why we can't stop doom scrolling and how to mitigate it in your life.

You may notice how your attention is serving you today. Who around you might benefit from your attention, rather than how you are spending it?

When everything feels like it's going to hell in a handbasket, don't forget to take a breath and listen to your needs.
