I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I’m wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.
I take a lot of pictures. Mostly of my pets. Yes, I do actually look back at old photos and I love it.
I don’t have any social media (other than this, which I guess counts). Where my friends hit their Instagram or Facebook, I just scroll through my old photos. “aw look at the time the cat found a box” or “oh remember when we went to storm king?”.
Works fine. Less rage.
