Finished reading: The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt 📚

3/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Found the book repetitive and thought the focus on safety-ism valid but also wanted to retort back (to no one in particular) that it’s not that simple okkk. Agree with most of it and the recommendations are solid enough. I just think that majority of the onus needs to be on the design end of tech.

First bunch of chrysanthemums I’ve ever picked. Pictured here are Champagne and Baltica Salmon.

Approaching mid-century and still feel the sting of messages unacknowledged. Ahh to be human!

I almost bought a Light Phone / Punkt / some dumb phone today but thought I’d try a minimum spend approach first 🤷🏽‍♀️ Deleted a bunch of apps (looking at you Substack!) and installed Blank Spaces App to reduce visual clutter. I think it will work!

Noticing the tension between wanting something pretty vs just going for it, mess and all.

Dahlia cv Belle with her two toned petals. I was so happy to come home to her in bloom.

Days are getting shorter. The garden looks tired. Still! It’s trying for a last hurrah.
