Deactivated Facebook

Sheesh! I just noticed I haven't posted in here since May! What's up with that?? Idk.. I think I'm going to start posting here way more often.

So, as the title says, I have deactivated my facebook today. I wish I could delete it all together, but the powers that be at FB doesn't seem to let folks do such things. At least I couldn't find anything definitive. Well, maybe I did, but I need my laptop to do it. I've packed my laptop away last night while clearing off my workstation. So, all I have to work with is my phone.

The reason(s) why I deactivated my facebook is that it is a huge time waster. I literally, before, would spend hours on there. Any little notification, I check my phone. Just to see it's some nonsensical thing. WTF?!  I grew up in the 80's & 90's. We didn't carry a palm sized computer with us everywhere we went! It was much more peaceful back then.

Am I having withdrawls from the last couple hours of not being on there? Yes & no. Yes, because it checking FB becomes an addictive habit like smoking. Which I seriously need to work on as well. That's another story. No, because it's so much more quiter since I've been off FB.

Other social media isn't as much as an issue as FB is/was. Well, maybe youtube. However, with youtube I'm a creator on there. I also am a consumer of other people's content. Instagram isn't an issue at all. I'm barely on there. Yes, I'm aware that FB owns IG, but IG will stay on my phone. Twitter is in no way an issue. I don't even go on there. Tumblr is where I look for porn. That could be an issue, and another story.

Anyways, just an over due update about what's happening with me.
