Not surprising. It's a sad state of affairs, but I've had an acquaintance tell me that their phone was "an extension of themselves," an extension of their personality, of who they believe they are. I was completely taken aback by how bizarre a statement it was on the surface and deeply disturbing it was beneath it. It's incredible how a battery powered illuminated piece of glass, aluminum and plastic could be considered anything more than a tool as a means to an end... yet, we've all experienced that dread of losing the damned thing, dropping everything and prioritizing its recovery over anything else that was likely more important, as if a fragile piece of survival in the modern world was at stake.

We've lost our fucking minds and the virtual reality world ahead of us, meant to completely trap us in another box of illusions, inside a smaller matron within the matryoshka doll of ignorance. It's being primed and ready for all of us as a piece of the Great Reset - "you'll own nothing and be happy for it" aka you'll own virtual space in a virtual world with virtual currency in completely controlled impoverishment. Mine for bits of virtual gold, peasant to earn your fair share and experience the reality outside!

Turn off the fucking phone, leave it on the table and go outside today. You'll feel better.

I read mostly books on my mobile phone. I have the data to prove that I spend almost all of my mobile phone time on the book reading app.

If you have iOS, go to settings, type in "screen time" and when the new thing comes up, tap on "see all activity." Then at the top, tap on "week" and see how your weekly average breaks down.

Mine says daily use is 2 hours, 46 minutes. 1 hour and 46 minutes is spent each day reading the digital book app. All the rest of my time is around 1m-12m on all other apps. It's because I read at work during my breaks or before I go to bed at night.

If you are sending more than 3 messages to each other, call. Seriously, just stop messaging people so much. It throws people off. Especially when I'm single and data, girls are blown away that I want to talk on the phone instead of messaging endlessly. They then get blown away when I say, "If you have enough time to message with me or talk to me, you have enough time to spend with me in person. I'm coming by."
