@alex "Last week I also deleted my other social media accounts. I haven't posted to Instagram for a long time, but I kept my account, so my wife could send me stuff...I have now deleted my account completely"
Congrats! Deleting a corp social media account is like planting a tree (as it relates to timing clichés). I deleted mine, which I was keeping for the same reason, the day after the US election.

I don't post about The Horrors. Sometimes I boost a sarcastic take. Just know this is not because I'm not in constant grief over it. It's because I don't think posting on here will do anything. And I have to try to keep myself together psychologically and healed up physically to do anything. And sometimes I just need to pretend things are not horrific all the time.
