My Return to Insanity

My Return to Insanity

I've written plenty of times about how, toward the end of 2024, I left most mainstream social media platforms. Especially those that were run by people that could be categorized as being part of what I call our “Broligarchy,” i.e. the tech bros that run companies like Meta and X (formerly Twitter). I cleaned out my accounts on Instagram, Threads, and X, and even fully took my Facebook and WhatsApp accounts off life support entirely by fully deleting them.

September is now almost gone and we're diving deeper and deeper into the autumn. Despite a few problems here and there, I think it was quite a nice month, and it's important to always try seeing things for their positive side, despite that now always being very easy.

October just passed by. It's now full-on autumn and I just turned one year older. It was, overall, a great month. Friends have visited, both from abroad and local. Met with some people, steam train rides. Let's dive into it!

September passed by quite quickly and with that two thirds of 2023 are now finished. As we now enter the final 🏁 quarter of this year, let's recap what has happened on my life over the past month. As usual, I feel like a lot has happened, especially when looking at it in retrospective.

November has been a pretty intensive month in many different regards: from my parents visiting The Netherlands for the first time, to my partner and I moving in together to a new apartment.

October is probably one of my favorite months of the year. Not only because of the vibes falling onto us 🍁 - no pun intented -, or my birthday, but it is also usually packed with events happening here and there. But before we continue, I wish you a great All Hallows' Eve 🎃!

July is ending for most of us in a few hours and August will start. This is when most people go for vacation and have their summer holidays. Let's look at what I've been doing during July, which has been a very very busy month - I feel like I've been saying this every month.
