From The Confessional: Letting Out Our Feelings About Our Facebook/Instagram ‘Friends’

Even though we know it’s toxic and we should occasionally purge our phones and our brains and our lives of social media and take a break, we don’t. We are tethered to our feeds because it’s where we get news about our school district, how we connect with friends about book club, and how we organize our children’s drive-by COVID birthday parades. (And, of course, the most crucial of info like who our ex is dating.) Here are some confessions about the love-hate relationship we all have with social media.

TIME TO UNLIKE, UNFOLLOW, AND UNFRIEND

Confession #25789073
I deleted every single Karen from my social media. It felt so good. #nomoreKarens

#25784721
"11 years later I'm still in love with my ex and I really hope that one day we will get back together, I regularly stalk him on social media."

#25784822
"I just realized that social media isn't contributing anything positive to my life but I can't seem to quit. I convince myself I do it to "stay in touch" with old friends when in reality, those people have moved on and probably don't give a shit about me."

Y'ALL HAVE A LOT TO SAY ABOUT AVOCADOS

Confession #1694292
I had a dream last night that I stuck an avocado pit in my vagina!

"I don't believe in God, but I do believe that weed, avocados, and orgasms are proof that life on earth was meant to be enjoyed."

#25748838
"My daughter watches a cartoon that depicts personified avocados. The male avocado is the half with the seed still in it, the female is the half with the indent. I keep expecting the two avocados to put themselves together to depict sex. Lol"

WORRIES ABOUT RETURNING TO SCHOOL

Confession #25788095
I'm terrified of schools reopening. My oldest is in the high risk category and we just cant mess around with a chance of her getting covid.

#25784680
"We love our preschool and it's great for kiddo in so many ways....but I kind of want to just keep him home now. Scared of COVID, and it's nice to save the $$. I just don't think I can successfully WFH with him home..."

#25787668
"I work in a school. Terrified to go back. This can't end well. Schools are so germy and there is no way to do what CDC is giving as guidelines. Too many areas for mistakes and thus outbreaks."
