I will still talk to you on Discord, and show drawings and such there. Don't worry.
In fact, i haven't used BlueSky in ages, for many weeks. I just wanted to let everyone know why i'm not around anymore. Nothing will change between a week ago and now. I made the decision long ago.

Meanwhile, i get happiness & wisdom, & moments to remember, from talking & interacting with my friends & family, both on Discord, and especially in real life.
Social media is like the mirror in Harry Potter. It grants no wisdom or happiness, and people waste their lives in front of it, going insane.

So i am going to stop using social media. I only joined Twitter because DeviantArt was getting bad at the time, and i only joined BlueSky because Elon Musk ruined Twitter. And during all this time, Twitter and BlueSky has only brought me stress and anxiety, and no happiness or wisdom.

And today, many people see art as nothing but a visual entity, and where all the effort and love that was put into it are disgarded as mere sayings and words. That's why we have AI today. People want something stimulating to look at for a brief moment, not something crafted for days by an artist

And if that is not the case, than social media is about endlessly scrolling, to get stimulus.
Art has never ever been as contemporary as it is now. People still gaze over Leonardo DaVinci's paintings, but art made today flashes by in some internet feed, enjoyed for mere minutes only.

I am going to say something that most people on social media would not say:
"I do not wish to be anything special. I do not wish to be anything other than who i am, and what i was born as."
And truth is; social media is all about trying to be something special, and to get status and popularity.

Every day that goes by, i see how people become more and more self-centered, egoistic, arrogant, and with a lack of respect and discipline. I see everyone walking around with their phone in their face, endlessly scrolling through social media feeds instead of living real life.

Social media has created a culture of "me me me", where one's world is circulating around oneself, and where one always tries to be special and such. Back when i was little, people were less focused about one self and didn't try to be something special.

I do not want to use BlueSky anymore. I do not like social media, and never have. I was against social media already back in 2010, when i saw Facebook ruin the social world around me.
BlueSky is full of politics, and of a certain POV where every other opinion is deemed wrong and gets censored.

Your what?

Thank you, friend! ❤️ I am very glad you like it!

Thank you! ❤️
I am quite proud of it, hence why i even framed it. 🥰

I am more into casual games myself. The kind that you can take out and play anytime you want, and with whoever you want.
Labyrinth, Jenga, UNO, you know; basic stuff.
One game i highly recommend is Sequence. It's a tactical game using playing cards and a board.

A Discovery Channel store from the 1990s. Shelves are filled with books, globes and model planes. A large telescope is displayed in the foreground, and an interactive kiosk sits in the background. Halogen lights make the lighting dramatic, highlighting the displays, and an illuminated panel shows an image of the Moon.

Stores used to look like this.

I hope you guys actually take me seriously.

I strongly advise you all to switch to Linux.
Choose Linux Mint as your starter (and hopefully keeper) version. It's very very similar to old pre-8 Windows. I usually call it a mix between Windows XP and Windows 7.

As long as you can access BIOS, it's not impossible.

Almost all games on Steam works on Linux BTW.

Here are some screenshots of what i have done with my Linux Mint.

I'm so bored and sick of social media.

I really love Zoo Tycoon 2.
I have the complete collection with all the expansion packs, which i play on my old Windows 7 laptop.
And still to this day, i can't help but go "aww" when i see the animals do things in that game.
