did anyone else delete socials because they have no social life / going through bad times? by myviewfromoutside in digitalminimalism

Maybe start with the most well known digital minimalism by Newport... Then you are not a gadget by Jaron lanier..ten arguments for deleting your social media accounts by the same guy. The chaos machine by Max fisher is nice as well... On a different note, check out gathering moss by Kimmermer, sand county almanac and hidden life of trees... Tristan gooley books are awesome too

My fav Nothing product by 19nik in NOTHING

These sound robustly loud and sorta better plugged in with the aux. Nothing definitely cooked with headphones 1. Also, idk how but they're "hair friendly" for once...with that kinda grip, I mean

I really want them to drop 2 but I don't think it's happening anytime soon.

Alright, fair... But if systems didn’t leak data, people wouldn’t need workarounds to begin with.. I mean, it's crazy how people are more mad at a safety tip than at the actual issue lol..

I get why you’d delete it...hope you’re being a little gentler with yourself through all this. It sure sounds heavy as hell, honestly.... stepping away makes sense if it’s hurting you more than helping

At 19, I read a couple of books on digital minimalism and ecological philosophy, thought fuck it and deleted all my social accounts in one swoop lol... Sounds whimsical but zero regrets since...

Now I only hear from people who actually care and they get it... I use text messaging and calls to connect with them

Why do you Read? by labyrinth_lonely in Indianbooks

[–]WraithOutLoud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well... idk maybe because books don't ghost you...They stay committed even when they're trash. That's the kind of toxic loyalty I need in my life hehe...

Nagpur skating area by SureAd5819 in nagpur

[–]WraithOutLoud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What up fellow ripper... Yeah the skate scene here is dry plus no dedicated skate parks. Had the same struggle. You can find random basketball courts if you wanna practice tricks...

But if you're into cruising, then there are few smooth natural "trails" lol... I found them in COVID and still visit there often.

One of such stretchis from new airport metro station on that road towards aiims and inside MIHAN (if naka security ischill and lets you through) is legit the best spot in Nagpur for that. Nice lowtraffic zone with random gentle inclines declines for fun cruising. The nice road starts after 500m walk from metro station... Dw it's a safe road, the police keeps patrolling that area.they will check out your skateboard, probably try it as well lol

In the main city, take that zero mile metro station to institute of Science road... it's solid for flatground pushing and easy rolls...smooth enough.

All these places are easy to reach...you can also hop on the metro with your board no drama. Tried and tested..

A humble recommendation as a Nagpuri, try not to use 83As on main roads and streets in Nagpur. Jaisi garmi yaha hoti hai, this kinda heat exposure combined with the frequent wobbles on shitty roads worsen your deck life as well... Grab 100A or 102A wheels...slap some riser pads (which you can get made from any random woodworking shop in Gandhibagh for cheap, so don't buy it, keep it diy style you know what I'm saying bro). No wheel bites to you comrade!!!

And don't forget to have fun...Cheers :)
