Hello dear Reader, I’m knocking on your door a bit late, I know, Instagram and I have had an entirely complex relationship, as it is with most users. At times, it’s nurturing and enjoyable to be on it, but during other instances, it feels suffocating as everything going on on the platform reeks of toxicity, misinformation and triggering entities. A few months ago, I was introspecting as to why I was still active on the app. This inner reflection comes to me frequently, and the end result will lead to me eliminating everything I deem negative on my feed and performing a cleanse of sorts. Does this account spark joy? No. Unfollow. But something always creeps back in, leading to the cycle cropping up again.
The summer intern death article gave me Dumb Ways to Die vibes. 😂
