Day 2 of being off twitter: I acutely feel the tug in my brain and the urge to fire off a bad take about some random bullshit. Also any time I look at the website to schedule a tweet for the NE account it feels like I’m being exposed to radiation

I don't envy you. I locked my accounts and logged off Thursday, deleted the app, and haven't been back. It's been nice!
Yeah like I’m basically trying to do a half-measure wean on a 13 year addiction, and it does suck lmao
I mean, if I was specifically trying to get stuff out there for my website I would not be so lucky as to just completely drop it, myself. Part of what sucks about this whole situation is how useful twitter can be. I wouldn't know most of the people I'm following on here without knowing them from twitter, first.
Oh absolutely. It’s undeniable that Twitter is and has been useful, even if it also sucks eggs
Went there to download my archive this morning, saw a thing that frustrated me and almost replied to it.
For me right now it's less wanting to participate in wretched discourse and more a foundational pillar of my self-esteem is getting people to laugh at my shitposts.
