Time Doesn’t Matter

I truly wish social media algorithms weren’t a thing. Can I just start by saying that? (ugh.) Before Instagram/Facebook decided to radically change their internal algorithm to “provide you with a more customized experience” garbage, there once was a day where content flowed in freely in a time ordinated matter.

Are You Sure You Would Like to Unsubscribe?

What happens when you click that unsubscribe button to Netflix? Binge watching. Oh the joys of mindless hours spent in front of a computer or TV screen watching Netflix. You know it has been too long when the haunting message of,  “are you still watching?” pops up and you shamefully click, “yes”. Hours spent in…
