V. resonant and relatable - who among us hasn't been a terrible, jealous person for a few minutes? On that note, I've been thinking about posting about Instagram accounts that bring joy vs. jealousy. A few: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Grace Kuhlenschmidt, jeffreymixed, Amy Sedaris (who often re-posts jeffreymixed). It reminds me of what's good about social media (sometimes).

I so appreciate you reading and relating. Not sure what drives me to share my darkest shadow stuff publicly, but always so “nice” to know I’m not alone when I do. Yes! Please write more about the joy and the jealousy! I agree! There are always some gems in there that keep me scrolling on and make my day. Tell me more!

Thank you, as always, for reading and for your enthusiastic support (and copy editing suggestions! ;) ). I didn’t prompt this week, but I’d be happy to hear from anyone about their own FOMO triggers. I was afraid to ask for proof that I was totally alone in it LOL!

I love this so much! Did I pick the wrong fork? I can never hear this enough… the internet is a FOMO engine of someone else’s silverware draw. Sending hugs!!!

OK LOL BUGS = HUGS, but I assure you these bugs aren’t black flies, they’re butterflies. X
