The Inevitable Disconnect
I dislike using the internet - it makes me a fraction of what I am. Pornography, video games, constant YouTube slop, and social media causes me to devolve and destroys my values. I am strict with my usage of the internet, and to simplify things I have made the things I don’t do into a fancy list:
- I will never pay for a TV license (innit).
- I play very little video games - the exceptions are a Nintendo Wii and Pokemon on my iPod Classic.
- I don’t watch pornography - after being addicted for much of my teen years, returning down the water slide would be a complete contradiction on what I work for.
- I use very little social media.
- I aim to only use free and open-source software.
- I only buy physical media (books, movies, TV shows, CDs, records, video games)
- I aim to spend as little time online as possible.
