RE: Can An Artist Be Successful Without A Social Media Presence? Why I Am Taking A Break From it...

Good luck with the task you spell out here.
Life may become boring with all that you plan on putting on the back burner, but at my age, I've found that feeling bored is really just a state of mind.
If you've got the time to become bored, become relaxed instead.

Very interesting, the entire dopamine thing.
When you're in the middle of so much, family, careers, and so many other responsibilities, you've got to meet those responsibilities. Some help from the chemical factory, that is our body, comes in handy sometimes

I can see how an addiction to it could happen so easily. With the media and technology that kids are exposed to every minute of every waking hour, it's no wonder things are where they're at.

Shit just gets crazier every day.

I don't even want to get started on the possibility of existing with a number stamped on my forehead, SOCIAL SCORE.

TikTok ... that's something Trump had right.

Hope all is well!

Hey Sweed, long time, how is life on your side, and how most importantly how cold is it right now 😁

That's an interesting saying. I don't always lead by example, but from time to time we're trying to remind the kids that it's good to be bored, that's when the great ideas come.

I also have to admit that sometimes we put the kids in front of their games or devices so we can catch up on something for an hour.

Yep it's coming sooner than later, it's amazing how quickly society is being shaped and nobody seems to realize what is at stake, probably the biggest change in human history since the invention of tools for agriculture in Mesopotamia (a long time ago).

And also maybe our own demise, not that I want to sound all doom and gloom here hahaah.
