One Step Up

With apologies to Bruce Springsteen. I recently stepped away from the WoW Forums for a week. It was the best decision regarding Social Media that I have made since quitting Facebook and Twitter. While away from the Forums, I spent more time with family, friends and my cat, I spent more time working out on my stationary bike and I lost myself in music, books and films. Heck, I even spent time playing WoW and still am of the opinion that Shadowlands is the worst expansion in the Game’s history. I think that by stepping away from Social Media and Big Tech in general (including WoW), we are able to regain our individuality and our humanity. Peace.

You are welcome. May you find peace on your journey.

Very cool. Definitely spend more time with your cat though. They love you.

My muse got the better of me and I felt the need to write.

Do they, though? Or are they just waiting for an opportunity to supplant you as ruler of the domicile?

I did this with all other social media 2 years ago. Deleted all accounts. Best decision ever. I still post here cause it kills time at work and I glance over at the second monitor from time to time.

I will continue to post on the WoW Forums, but only about lighthearted topics. The Arts, music, movies, books and videogames. Facebook and Twitter are simply too toxic for me.

In the spirit of lightheartedness, let’s listen to some more of the Boss.

“Hey, what else can we do now except roll down the window and the let the wind blow back your hair”

I agree. It actually does make a big difference when you step back.

I actually feel better mentally and physically. Peace.

You know this is good advice. I need to only post on the light hearted stuff as well. I should go back to my popcorn posts for the drama threads. What I should actually do is find out how much of my post count is just popcorn posts. :rofl:

One small correction for me. I don’t roll down the window. I put the the top down. :grin:
