Privacy protections or not, any new social network is still based on a flawed & inhuman communications paradigm that normalizes performative narcissism and screen addiction. A better mouse trap is still a mouse trap. #unplug

Thx for this Gr8 article @GetParentology. A new social media platform called @mewe declares your private life is #Not4Sale. It is amazing to see new apps being created in response to what facebook has become. Read their Privacy Bill or Rights here: parentology.com/mewe-the-new-s…



And there's a solution for preventing social media addiction altogether: Read your kids "The Liking Tree" - the first-ever “antisocial media” picture book, available @ thelikingtree.com. #unplug #deletefacebook #digitalwellness

You can’t make this up. #MarkZuckerberg has staff blow-dry his armpits before he speaks? Mark, here’s a solution for profuse sweating... Tell the truth!

Another smart take on the "internet content = mental junk food" metaphor. Most people involved in producing content tailored for the social algorithms have known this for a long time.... #unplug #junkfoodcontent #cancelsocialmedia

#SaferInternetDay Starts with parents/carers. Stop handing iPads to toddlers & iPhones to Tweenies. Don’t make Insta accounts for your baby. You’re not helpless to protect your children against predators & inappropriate content. But you are if you make a tablet their babysitter.


This NBC story sidesteps the big issue by talking about "which kids might be predisposed to screen addiction", suggesting the weakness lies in the individual, rather than communicating the underly truth that screens themselves are profoundly addictive. #unplug #internetaddiction

A poetically explicit rebuke of the cruel and primitively tribal #CancelCulture that social media has spawned. #Unplug #DigitalWellness #DigitalDetox #CancelSocialMedia

Joaquin Phoenix: "That's when we're at our best, when we support each other. Not when we cancel each other out for past mistakes, but when we help each other to grow, when we educate each other, when we guide each other toward redemption." #Oscars



Is it just me, or is relying on apps to promote #digitalwellness kinda like relying on Snickers Bars to promote healthy smiles? 🙄 #unplug #digitaldetox

When you first log in to KeepAppy, a pop-up appears explaining that KeepAppy only focuses on your general wellbeing. You wouldn’t turn to an app when you break your leg and you shouldn’t when your mental wellbeing is really hurting either. #digitalwellness #staysafe #askforhelp

This study is specific to #DeleteFacebook, but surely there's no doubt #DeleteTwitter or #DeleteInstagram studies would produce identical results. True contentment comes via #DeleteSocialMedia. #DigitalDetox #Unplug

People who deactivated Facebook in a study were happier afterward, reporting higher levels of life satisfaction and lower levels of depression and anxiety. That change is equal to about 25-40% of the beneficial effect typically reported for psychotherapy trib.al/IqNEOsM
