I hate the internet brah

I'm deadass considering getting rid of my phone and getting an old flip phone instead. I saw a video of these uni students who did it in America and like ... THATS WHAT I WANT TO DO !! 

I've been slowly using more physical media and old technology- like using an mp3 player instead of spotify and been tryna read more books. (I do need to find more silly fun books bcs right now my brain in hurting trying to read Hollow bcs it's a 16th century surrealist book </3) 

I know for a lot of people hearing somebody doesn't have a cell phone is weird and a red flag but I WANNA BE HAPPY BRUV .... I get so jealous hearing about people who grew up in the 90s who could just live without looking at a screen everyday ! I want that so badly ! I don't even care about being a famous musician or anything anymore. I don't want that bcs it's SCARY .. and although ofc I want my music to be heard I just don't want the feeling of fame. So having a flip phone will solve that low key yknow. 

I am getting so tired of hearing about the negative effects of social media and the internet on people and like ... why not just ... get rid of it all ... yknow ... I know it will be tough but It'll probably give me more motivation to go outside and talk with people more- probably will stop me from feeling so lost and hateful towards myself as well which is something I've been struggling with for the past year or two (which I think is an effect of me spending so much time on my phone in the lockdown tbh)

I'll still have a laptop and stuff just bcs It's kinda necessary for the real world and all... but I'll use it a lot less than I do now. Honestly I spend more time on my laptop than my phone but It'll be freeing to go outside without my phone a bit more.

I have such a hatred towards social media and phones and stuff it just makes sense to do this- and I've felt this way for A WHILE. We as humans shouldn't be living this conveniently- wouldn't it be nice to have a whole separate camera and calculator (which you'll probably never use lets be real) that you can physical hold and feel the ridges of ?? Half the stuff on our phone isn't even needed- or we never even USE it SO LIKE .... IM JUST SAYIN ... 

Obviously it wont be easy and I dont expect it to be but I still wanna try to make an effort and cut myself off from social media more or less for good.
