I am always astounded how hard it can be to break doom scrolling as a habit DESPITE knowing how much better I feel when I can't / don't do it.

On a tangential note.. Best use of a "touch grass" reference goes to Noita devs: https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/1bt7aid/streamer_sp...

I used to have a similar issue with hiding inside all the time (during Covid times, of course) and to motivate myself to go outside, I started an Instagram of tiny little plants growing in cracks in the pavement. I tried to add a new tiny plant every day or two, which meant that I had to wander further and further afield to find a suitable sp…
I'm a connoisseur of plants growing in cracks in the pavement, mind sharing a link?
