Back to Music

I last mentioned I got the ick and deleted the top time wasting social media apps for me. The last time I stayed off for a week was for a Meta boycott and I had serious withdrawal symptoms. I was anxious and grumpy. This time it hasn't been like that. Partly because we've been really busy. I think the motive behind it made my brain okay with it. 

I still have Snapchat for messaging and photo sharing. I posted more stories than usual Sunday and check in on friends there a bit. It's much less time consuming than IG though. I also realized Facebook Messenger let's me see stories. I checked a few but I don't think I'll want to do that much. That's what I'm trying to stay away from. 

I've been on LinkedIn a bit more, but it's pretty fake. 

I've been posting on VSCO which I don't get haha, but I like the idea of getting back into photography. 

My favorite thing about not using TikTok and IG for listen to videos is I've been listening to music. 

Here's a fun list:

Ella Langley-Still Hungover(I liked her newly released album so I thought I'd explore previous work. I liked it.)

Kasey Musgraves- in anticipation of her new album I started listening to old stuff. Her single Dry Spell is clever and catchy. Honestly she's not really my fav. I was surprised to discover she sings Biscuits which I loved when it came out. I discovered her late when she did duets with Noah Kahan and Zach Bryan and I really like her in those songs. 

Olivia Dean-The Art of Loving(still not loving it).

Taylor Swift-TTPD (I was in a mood)

J. Cole-The Fall-Off(listened through again while reading the lyrics. I like him. A)

Finneas has a new band with Ashe called The Favor and OMG I love the album. I found out through Reddit which is another app I scrolled through briefly. I saw a thread that asked people if they like Optimist or For Crying Out Loud more. I didn't initially like FCOL, so I thought I'd give it another listen. I'm still not like it as much as Optimist or the new band.
