I want to shift it from: “notifs come in whenever, I do the rest of my life in between” to: “I am doing my life, I make a lil time in the day for notifs 🥰 in between” https://t.co/MjnarAm051
“Allowed” is a weird word, because this is an actively non-coercive experiment. I “can” go and check notifs whenever I want. Anytime I feel myself thinking, “I can’t check notifs,” I remind myself, “FUCK NO, i CAN go check it right now if I want.” Then: “Do I want to?”
I’m v consciously doing this experiment NOT from the super-ego and ENTIRELY from the ego, or not at all, in an effort to increase my sense of self-identification, autonomy, and unrestricted freedom in life. https://t.co/hzRgN760ip
Noticing I tend to clear out the 2–6 notifications from my alts on the spot, but when my main has 20+ / 99+ notifications, I avoid touching it until I really have time. This is a good thing. Weaponing my completionism. https://t.co/vqMTOwl0L6
@xsphi Oh, it’s also easier when I have 20+ notifs, and I’m like: I can’t finish this all in one setting. Versus 2–3, tempting. All the more reason to let it accumulate. The more is accumulates, the more of a burden to go through—a virtuous heavening flywheel.
DRUNK ON THE POWER “99+ notifications” and “X+ DMs” and not do *anything about it right this sec* I will come for you lovely babes I will come for you having taken care of myself. https://t.co/2xE2pXeSMf
@xsphi It’s surprisingly easy when I remember how much I hate it. I like the idea of this so much more: https://t.co/qK5IXG4IRd
